Thanks for all the compliments. I feel like I am re-learning how to performance drive LOL (never had a turbo)... dang thing comes on long a sledgehammer when the turbos kick in... but it's quickly becoming my favorite of the pack. I love this car! Can't believe I found it locally after looking all over the country for so long... and on top all that found a new friend with the old owner. Meant to be!

Well done - good acquisition! The only downside, if there is one, is that you've started at the top of the food chain. Any future Porsche of less HP will be a dissapointment. Not a bad problem to have, though.

Nice cars, now drive GT2 to the track and enjoy the car, you will see it shine, in comparison with those other 2.
I had a Gallardo for a month, and that was enough to make me go back to my Porsche ASAP...
To drive on the street and get attention (which I hated) the Lambo is great, but it ends right there.

Love it! I have a black/black 997.1 TT with black wheels so I am biased. Be prepared though (first hand knowledge) - no front plate, dark window tint, dark side markers are all DPS magnets - any excuse to pull you over. I was pulled over for no plate and clear side markers - told me they were supposed to be amber refelctors even with the amber bulb - anyway, just got a warning, not even a fix it.

Saw your new pics - get some black lug bolts to complete the look.
