Congrats.....Didn't even think you were for sure buying a Turbo. A buddy of mine has a 03 Seal grey on grey interior X50 for 99,000. If you haven't bought let me know. It has full aero kit and full carbon fiber. Lot's of more options on top of those.

Thanks guys... I have all of you bastards to thank. I'm just kidding. I was getting tired of getting left in the dust buy all my turbo buddies.

Here's the low down:

First, let me thank all the folks that assisted in this process. Keith for being my local consultant and devil's advocate. Eric @ Bumper Plugs for his contacts and expertise. Duane, Rob, Gary, and Max for their subtle proding. Orlando for his super-enthusiasm and insanity!

Chris Morea at Jim Ellis Porsche is the hardest working sales guy I have ever met. He busts his *** and I think he sold 4-5 cars yesterday. Just keep our fingers crossed that everything goes according to plan when I go to pick up the car.

Special thanks goes to my wife for being supportive and enthusiastic of this crazy-*** hobby of mine... she has no idea what "mods" means... thank God!

Okay... the car. Atlas Grey (new color for 2004) exterior with Natural Grey (very dark, almost black) supple leather interior. Painted center console and door handles in Atlas. Small wood (what were they thinking) package which the dealership will swap upon my arrival. The new navigation system and bose audio. Plus all the usual extras that are now standard like bi-xenons, PSM, full leather, etc...

The plan is to drive up on Saturday May 8th (my lovely wife's birthday). They will swap my steering wheel, wood for arctic, all the bulbs, sidelights, and a few other pieces. After finishing up the deal I will drive back... 10-11 hours of driving... am I crazy? Yup!

Now for some pictures. This is the Porsche Configuratior representation of the car with the Avus Wheels I plan on winning at the South Florida Event in June.


Here are actual photos of the car up at Jim Ellis Porsche near Atlanta. Chris is a great salesman but a not-so-good photographer but this is all I have for now.


Thanks again to Jim Ellis Porsche and Chris Morea and Lee Smith for their efforts in making this happen. I can't wait ot see the car in person and meet you guys.

And now it is time for the last wash on the GreyGhost2. Next time , it will be GreyGhost3 that gets the treatment. It is sad in a way, I really love this car but hey... nothing lasts forever.

Thanks again guys... you are like the family of crazy, addicted, maniacs I never had.
