Smile Anyone within a few hours of Central Massachusetts?

I am considering adding a 996TT to the car collection.
I would like to sit in one and look one over with someone who knows about these cars. Closer to stock the better, especially the seats. I'd like to see if I fit in the car and how the ergonomics work. I'm tall and have long legs, I will push the seats back all the way in most every car I have ever driven.
Having a once-over the car with someone who has done repairs & maintenance would also be great.
I would drive a few hours to visit with someone in Mass, CT, RI, NH, VT, etc.

Since this is my first post on the forum, I don't know if I can receive PM's.... I guess we'll see.

Thanks!

Thanks! Syracuse is about 5 hours each way. Let me think about that a little more.

I would like to see what you have done as far as upgrades, if you don't mind. I will send a PM... except I can't.

I must drive slow I plan 4 hours to Utica and 6 hours to Rochester. I thought Syracuse was right in the middle of those two. And I thought the NYS Thruway was heavily enforced? It always seems to be when I've driven it.
I'm 1/2 hour from Boston with no traffic, as if *that* would ever happen.
