Well, add me to the list of new GTS owners!

I want to start off by thanking the board and it's amazing members. I learned so much in my quest for my first Porsche purchase. I hunted, and hunted, then I hunted abit more, and finally found the car with everything I want/need.

The car is still sitting at the dealership, but I will be picking it up in 2 weeks. I have some things in my schedule that I cannot change, so it will have to wait.

I don't know if I can take the wait though.

Anyway, here is a teaser shot. The marker lights are getting changed to clears.

More pixs to come soon! And thanks again folks!!!!!!!!

A few more pixs. I will list the spec sheet too.

It's just an amazing feeling knowing that little "SOLD" sign is all for me

The GTS I think is one of the best Porsches on the market today - I feel like it will hold its value particularly well too ... great color combo too - congrats my friend ...

Signed,

It is beautiful but I still don't understand why the aerokit is from the 997.1. I would assume they would give it the newer 997.2 gt3 kit. The newer wing would be nice.

Vintage tone is one of the great loves of many guitarists.
