First Porsche - 2007 TT with about 19,000 miles in white.

It has been a blast so far to drive... I look forward to learning more about the car from each of you.

Looking into getting an extended warranty and doing some clearbra. I have spoken to Pacific Porsche and got a quote for the extended warranty. Any recommendations on a place to do clearbra in the Los Angeles area?

Thanks!

GT3 wheels and side skirts... painted no less. Nice... love the white ones!

I've already put 9k miles on my 07 since I bought it in Aug last year. They're a ton of fun! Happy motoring!

Pacific Porsche....are you from the South Bay?

For clear bra, I would contact Sean at Ultimate Shields in the OC. I can't recommend them enough.

Congrats on the pick up.

Me too! I considered other colors and there were cheaper ones, but figured I should get the car that I want and not settle.

Yes a dealer in costa mesa. I also looked across the country but didn't find one that was just the right combo.

Took another pic today - getting a bit dirty after lots of driving the past few days, but color is more accurate than the first pic.
