Our first Porsche

Last weekend my wife and I had the great pleasure to take delivery of our first P- car, a 2008 997 Carerra S. We bought her at Hoehn Motors in Carlsbad, CA and had an awesome buying experience from front to back. We took the train down and our salesman was waiting for us at the train station in a new Cayenne S to wisk us back to the dealership to go through the whole delivery process. What an awesome experience!

Per my request, the car was delivered without being detailed and since we got home last last Sunday I didn't really get a chance to snap any photo's until today.

Our newest joy was spec'd out as follows:
  1. GT silver metallic paint
  2. Carrera red natural leather
  3. leather sport seats
  4. self dimming mirrors
  5. heated seats
  6. sport chrono plus
  7. navigation module for PCM
  8. Bose high end sound package
  9. deviating carpets (black)
  10. floor mats in interior color
  11. Porsche crests on wheel caps
  12. storage bin lid w/ Porsche crest
  13. clear sidemarkers
  14. short shift kit
  15. full leather interior
Here are a few photo's. Unfortunately, the beauty of the red interior doesn't translate too well in photo's. The color is off. I've noticed the same problem when trying to photograph the terracotta interior.

Thank you. We're absolutely in love with the car and both just walked out to the garage to enjoy just looking at it again.

You are in SOCAL, so go get Moe Mystery (see the Detailer section of 6speed) to detail your car. You are smart to not let the monkeys at the dealership detail the car. Moe does my Porsche and Lambos and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to prep your new car.
