introducing myself and my new ride

Hello everyone. I've been reading this forum for sometime and really enjoy it. I've been actively searching for a nice Porsche as a DD for the last 6 months and finally ordered a 09 997s right as the economy hit the crappy big time. Well I had negotiated a refundable deposit and decided not to take the car. I used my deposit to enjoy a day of drive at the world class driving experience and after driving the lamborghini I was hooked. Two weeks later this was delivered. I've only had it since friday but could not be happier with my choice.

BTW my name is Matthew, I'm 29 and live in Florida

and I hope to participate in this forum a lot. I really would rather not talk about what I paid for the car because there is always someone that will say you could have done much better. I will tell you that I think I got a fair deal and after doing a lot of research I found that many of the cars out there lurking in the very low 100's and below were not cars that turned me on. Like most things in life cheap at the time of purchase can lead to huge headaches down the road and this was really meant to be a fun purchase as I'm sure it was for all the G and M owners here so I did not want to put time or more work into the car.

I have actually driven the car 600 hundred miles since last friday and truly think it is awesome. I drove it all day yesterday in the pouring rain and it performed flawlessly.

Needless to say Lamborghini has made a huge fan out of me. More pictures coming soon.
