Nice ride: less time in the garage and more time driving.

Beautiful car Pete. I've placed an order for a similar one. Hows the wind noise inside the cabin with the glass sun roof?

I haven't tried it on the open road yet (we're just getting over some really bad weather). I'm heading up to Bear Mountain tomorrow and I'll give it a try. I'll let you know soon.

Thanks to everyone else for all the nice comments. I really do love this car.

Beautiful car! I've got a white C2S coupe with a glass roof and the Carrera Classics. You're making me rethink my decision not to get the Sport Design package! Your car looks awesome! Enjoy in good health.

Hey pete here one of the pics I took of your car at bear mountain. I having a hard time trying to upload the other one. Well the picture upload system on this forum is different from the one on the 986 one so I am still trying to figure it out. But ya it came out nice.

Also can someone tell me how to make the picture not appear as an attached thumbnail.

Pete,
That's a beaut! I struggled with the same decision of black or white and ultimately went with white too albeit with a glass roof, black PDLS lights (which you can't really see in these photos but it does look nice on the white car) and platinum wheels. I also swapped out the orange side lights for the clear Euro version and installed a PASM S front bumper, which is less forgiving getting up and down the driveway but much kinder to the car in parking lots with wheel stops.

That's a terrific looking car Pete. Congratulations!
I can totally understand the black issue. It drove me crazy on two previous 911's. The color ends up owning you!
Enjoy the new car.

Hey it was great meeting you guys the other evening, and thanks for posting the picture; I love the angle.

Pertaining to your question: I download my photos to Photobucket and then post them on the forum using the "Insert Image" tool (the icon resembles a small picture post card).

Hope to see you guys up at Bear Mountain again.

Beautiful car! I like your duck tail too. You will love the ease of maintenance with white. I haven't washed mine in a month and it still looks great (from a few feet). I wish I got the platinum wheels like Haku and speedwell but your wheels will hide the brake dust well. I had one black 911 years ago and it was enough
