Very pleased to be back in a Porsche- C2S

After missing and regretting the sale of my 06, I finally sold my pro-touring 67 camaro and got into a seal grey 05 C2S with 26,000 miles. PSE, full leather, bose, 6 speed. Very clean car. It's everything I remember.

The day after I bought it I sent it off for a GT3tek body kit and OZ Ultrallegera black 19"s. I should get it back late next week. Looking forward to putting some miles on it.

With the recent IMS issue, you are pretty brave to pick up a low mileage 05. Glad you are back, I see the modding has already begun.

Very Nice Car, love the color!!!

I have always wondered like Ynot mentioned why someone buys a 997.1 and puts thousands of dollars in mods into it right away, many times they could have just bought a 997.2 or a newer 997.1 out of the IMS issues for the same amount of the car/mods. I guess the whole IMS deal is overblown.

To bad you sold that Red one, that thing looks Hot, I see why you miss it.

Congrats on making it back, it looks like you have found a nice example. Can't wait to see some pictures of this beauty when it gets back. Now you just have to do is get some Clear Side Markers and a LED Interior Lighting Kit.

I took the IMS issue into consideration, but fell in love with this low mileage car. I choose not to live in fear or regret. The hype of the Internet isn't going to get to me

Thats a great point, I thought you could prevent it also by pre-acting for like $1000-1500, is that correct?

Can not wait to see pictures after you get it back.

Great attitude, but I think the difference in price for a newer one is marginal. Maybe I am wrong.

I was lost for a few years but found my way back. Welcome back!

Someone recently said:

Once you're with Porsche, you’re married to the brand. You only have affairs with Italian cars.

I would make one change to read " You only have affairs with other cars."
