Where did you get the aluminum mats? I really the way they look.

thanks man... i've always loved the 911, the pricing on the 997S was really high, really no point to upgrade from a 996 to a base 997 , it has to be a carreraS

it lacks low end torque compared to the 996, but acceleration wise, handling, it will dominate.. on high rpm this thing is insane.LOL
I will have more reviews later on..
