New To Me 997.2

Hey everyone just flew in to Cincinnati from Northern Wisconsin and drove back home in my 09 ,CPO, Guards Red over black, C4, Cab. Thought hard about red but it is a traditional classic Porsche color that looks awesome in person. Love the factory painted red center counsel, red seat belts, and red Porsche script in the wind deflector. W I D E body. New Lloyd mats in black with red Porsche script arrive tomorrow and I may get the cup holder cover in red from Bumper Plugs. Fully loaded PDK with window sticker over $112K.

Sold my mint 02 996 cab at a Porsche Club event 2 weeks ago and started looking. Thank you Porsche search agent.

The 997.2 is soooo much better than my old 996 in every respect especially the 9A1 motor.

ARGH where did the previous owner get the PORSCHE logo on the windscreen from?? Been looking for it for a long time and can't find it anywhere.

Looks amazing man, sporting out that red.. very unique.
