Picking Up my First Porsche Early Next Week!

So, a few of you may remember my new year's resolution thread wherein I stated that my resolution was to own a P-car by June. Well, it looks like I'm ahead of schedule. I found a 2001 996TT with approximately 9000 miles on it that I'm picking up early next week (seller is on vacation). It passed PPI with flying colors and I made sure to check for 2nd gear pop out issues during the test drive.

It's silver (get to keep my Ag Surfer name!) with grey interior. No warts, hollow wheels, and full leather. The car is completely STOCK except for a SSK.

The next few days are going to be agony. But, I've waited this long so it shouldn't be too bad. I know you guys want pics, but I guess we all get to suffer together.

Already sold them! Got really good money for them too. I needed to start the 996 Mod Fund.

BTW, I will be selling my M5 in the near future if anyone is interested.

Did you see the special they had on the news about what percentage of the nigerian community within the U.S. are involved in scams?
