Finally Picking up my 997

After years of searching for the perfect porsche and settling on corvettes and shelby's i finally found my perfect car. Picking it up Thursday. I've been floating on this forum for years but never could find anything good.

There is the link. I traded in my 07 Shelby for this. Its a bit down on power but much higher on refinement and beauty. CANT WAIT! Its already got the intake and exhaust suspension and rims.

Looks good but the steering wheels looks like a cheap alcantara wrap. Congrats on your purchase, you will love your new Porsche.

Has some nice options! Like said above, the steering wheel is a little over done with the airbag covered but the Aero kit is a big plus!!!

Enjoy,

P.S. If you get the need for more speed down the road you have nice options! Turbo is one =-)
