I am located here in the bay area.

Fred, love your car. I actually ran into another SF porsche fanatic in the city a few months back who has a gorgeous seal grey GT2 (Josh). I pulled him over and we ended up talking "shop" for about 30 minutes. He mentioned that you two took a trip to LA to pick up his ride. We should all hook up for a drive one of these days soon.

Josh, we still need to grab lunch!

Yep, I know Josh too. A great guy. Do let me know when you guys do lunch and I will join. I am sure we can round up some more turbo guys such as Endra and others ;-)

KMY,
Welcome, I know you will enjoy this forum. I'm pretty new to the scene here as well (3 weeks) and the members are all very friendly and definately know their stuff. If you have any questions or comments, just post it and everyone will jump in to assist. Regarding your Gemballa exhaust. Did you or your installer have any difficulty during installation. I ordered one and it didn't fit. Some members posted sound for me and it did sound great.
Welcome aboard,
Ron

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Look forward to participating in many discussions!

Chris Y, the interior color on my turbo is natural brown. best way I can think of describing it is similar to a baseball mit, sort of a deep camel color. thought it was unique and I'm enjoying it more the longer I own the car.

Fred, would love to grab lunch with you, Josh and the other Bay area members. Have found some great roads out here over the past few years.

Happy Holidays!!
