Beautiful car, congratulations! I am in Northern California so it's unlikely our paths will ever meet. BUT ... my wife and I spent 12 years in San Diego and just vacationed for a week in Solana Beach (about 20 minutes north of downtown) AND ... we really miss Southern California. Angling and saving for a vacation condo, likely in the Del Mar area. Wish me luck!

I'm just over the hill from you, Half Moon Bay. Keep an eye on West/NorCal forum where I post drives. Just had a good one on Saturday. A few of us retired and/or consultant folk are off again this Friday.

Look in the other discussion for it. It's one of the top threads. Group buy ends at the end of the month. I bought and installed mine yesterday.

Check this thread, there is a group buy going on if you want a slight discount on a great pair of led tail lights!

Very nice. I have to say, I don't mind the lobster fork wheels on a black 911 - but people like black wheels when they like black wheels. Yours look good.
Are you going to do anything with the audio?

It has Bose which i'm satisfied with, i generally dont like to mess with audio and keep that oem look- Only thing i'd like is to add iPod adaptor
Well, that's kind of the rub. At least for me. The only way to get a solid line-quality iPod connection to the 997.1 PCM is a Dension adapter, which is $750 or so installed. Suddenly Pioneer has these AVEC head units that are a little more expensive - $1000 or so plus install, but then you get iPod connectivity, bluetooth for phone and music, a _much_ better looking and more robust screen, and even Apple CarPlay compatibility. It would be hard for me to do a Dension install if I could get so much more for another few hundred bucks. That's just me though.
