Hey Guys,

I started reading this forum around July (when it was founded?) and finally joined. I read it all the time (very addictive). I don't own a Porsche right now, but will own several one day. I just wanted to say hello and that this is a great site. I won't be too active b/c I'm always at work and can't post from there. Plus, my input would be strictly opinion as I don't really have too much firsthand insight. My only Porsche experience is as follows:

2003 996tt - Awesome car. Drove the absolute **** out of it for about 5 miles. I want one, but might wait and get a GT-2.

2003 Cayenne Turbo - Exceeded my expectations. Awesome SUV, if you can call it that.

Anyways, I'll be lurking. Oh, and any Atlanta guys, I'd love to meet some of you and check out some more P-cars. It would be pretty cool to try and arrange some get togethers like the FL and CA folks.

Take Care.

David

PS - Buddy, I was behind a Gainey Transportation Services (GTS) truck today.

Thanks for the welcome.

I think I'll post the car in the classifieds, as to not turn this into a For Sale ad. If you're intersted, it'll be over there.

Thanks,

David

By the way, I remember your knowledge from an earlier thread. I've got a 16610.

Awesome watch! I bought a 16600 about 3 weeks ago. Was considering a 16610 but as you can see in my avatar I already have a 16613.

You certainly do not have to own a Porsche to be a member....just have to be an enthusiast. Welcome aboard, and hope you find your way to a Porsche soon!!

Dock,

I live in Brookhaven. How about you?

Shank,

Thanks. Actually, we've had contact twice before. First time was when you had your 97 Supra up for sale before you modded it. It was just more than I could spend at the time. Secondly, I was the guy that sent you that random e-mail in the Spring of 2002 that asked what you did for a living in Manhattan (I was hoping you worked on Wall Street and could give some advice).

Thanks for the welcomes.

David

David: You not only have to save for the car, but if you're going to be reading this forum, be prepared for serious mod expenses!
