Ravi i'm really glad that the car went home to California where the first owner resides. I know I'm going to miss this car but I'm glad that it will live on in spotlight and will see some serious love in your garage. This car is just what the doctor ordered to bring some much needed street cred to the 996TT.

Awesome car and I love the color. If I recall Al originally listed this closer to $100k so if you look at it that way you got a deal.

Got the car delivered on Friday afternoon, and basically drove it all weekend..

Cruising down PCH with the windows down and sunroof open at sunset, just had to scream out in joy.."Woooooooo"

I had a blast all weekend in the car driving solo, with a couple of buddies of mine that I gave some rides to, as well as my girl.. Although when I took it to my parent's house.. my mom refused to get in for a ride "Way too low for me" lol

Went to cars&coffee on Saturday morning, and even though I got there late, and parked the car towards the back, many people came up to it to take pictures/admire the vehicle.. Al also put me in touch with a good friend of his who was there as well.. (Thanks AL!)

Car is going to GMG on Tuesday to get some small issues looked at which I want to get checked out, all-aluminum 3 piece radiator set-up, changing the Pagid race pads for something more street (and less squeaky), and a few other things which I will report back on after.. Basically, I'm looking to get the car absolutly dialed in to my driving style.

For now enjoy some pics of the car back in the state that it was meant for!

Cheers all..

Sweet ride. Congrats!

Kinda funny how there's two cars here that are named after cannabinoid strains.

"Blue Dream" and "Pineapple Express".

Whats next? Maui Wowie? Og Kush? Jew's Gold??

lol

Looks excellent! You will be in good hands with GMG! They built most of my car and it's been dead reliable! Only problem I've had is a small drip from damn driver side radiator! I'll be in touch soon!

Car looks great! Congrats. I'm really looking forward to seeing your intercoolers. I may actually be getting ready to buy a couple of your radiators.
