Proud new Owner (F-cars, please meet Mr. Turbo)

Well, I pulled the trigger and purchased a 2001 P-Turbo w/ 40k miles from another board member! I'm exiting a string of AMG's. Started w/ a c32, jumped to E55 and recently out of a CLS55. Last two were both pushing 600hp so I'm accustomed to fast yachts...Not speed boats like this turbo.

This is my first solely owned stick shift and all I can say is that I really was missing out on the fun. I haven't even pushed the car too hard and all I can say is, . I have scared the crap out of myself a few times while under boost. I look forward to being a contributor to the boards and have been reading up on a lot of great threads. Thanks to all you, I made the move!

Here is a few shots from the stable. The porsche blends in nicely, don't you think?

Sorry for the bad pictures, I'll have to get some nicer shots in more direct sunlight

Mods done by previous owner;
19x8.5, 19x11 BBS CH-R Wheels
H&R coilovers II
B&B Le Mans exhaust
UMW Tune
Bosch diverter valves (which I honestly don't know much about yet)
GT3 Rear set delete
997 buck seats

On order / out for bid
997 ssk
Double Din Navi, new speaks, sub and amps

From my perspective, all mods done by previous owner were done very tastefully. Great choice in rims and he did a great job w/ the interior which was a deal break for me.

A BIG thanks to all for the nice wishes! I find myself running pointless errands just so I can get some extra seat time.
