Great to meet you as well! Always a pleasure to have new members join the party. I had a bit of an ADD this past Saturday because I haven't visited for such a long time (and had to leave early). Next time will be better

He took great care of it. I used to eye that thing when I brought my car to his shop. It was a tiptronic, right?

Now I'm in love with his White Shark (White 996 TT).

You work in Emeryville?

Nice pics! I'm trying to buy a 40D myself. I've got a defunct 20D right now. I can't wait for some nice weather to shoot down there with you guys

Nope, mine's not a tip. Damn. I was hoping someone could give me a little more history about my car. It was very clean, but I know it had a few things done that I'll probably never know about. Oh well.

Yeah, I work in Eville. What gave me away?

It was in good hands. I wouldn't worry about it. I think it just has a little less hp now than before.

That photograph with the Bird's poster gave it away.

Oh, that's low. Did someone waste their time taking PSS9s off it too? Cuz I put 'em right back on.

No no, I think you misunderstood what I wrote.

I don't know the car too much but if it was tuned by Sharky it was probably EVOMed out to 600 or 700 hp.

That said people usually return it to stock before they sell it. That's all. Sharky does a great job of checking everything to make sure it's in tip top condition when they do so.

I agree with you though, for the real enthusiasts we would rather have paid a little more and kept everything on it.
