My "New" 40th!

I got the car in last Friday; but, between an out of town trip, rain, and a million other lame excuses I didn't have a chance to take any pictures until today.

The car is #590 out of 1963. The mileage was 8,396 and the car comes with a new CPO warranty. I'm the second owner.

This is my second 911. My first was a 1996 993 C4S I sold a couple of years ago. The difference between the two cars in sound, looks, etc. is amazing!

Yes...I know...clear markers!

Thanks, guys. No mod plans as yet. I'm of the "purist" camp.

We'll see what happens over time!

Very nice!!! good choice..



btw, have you driven a regular 996 and compared it to the 40th?

is the hp increase noticeable? and is the suspension different?

let me know, thinking if picking one up..
