got it,..will post more pictures later..Probably will insert a link to a more appropriate thread location for pictures Initial impressions: I love the way she looks from the back, actually from every angle. Steering feedback provides constant information. I find my self leaving it in sports mode with exhaust ON ALL the time.

Final pics and my take away.
I feel as though I Stole this car! Should have bought one a long time ago! It is worth much more than the price! Really.
I feel so connected as if man and machine become one. It IS one inspiring piece of human enginuity. I know, sounds like a cleche but it's True. It's actually more beautiful to drive than how it looks!!! And look at it!! Wow. Truely Amazing.
Take away advise, if you see this car on sale above kbb by 5 to 10k... if the mechanicals haven't been compromised, jump on it! You Don't want to loose the opportunity. The experience is That good, and I've probably not even discovered 50% of what it offers. I got lucky with this one.

It appears that the car OP was originally referring to has been sold so the car and photos are no longer there. Once you have the VIN, posted in OP's original message, it generally only takes a little Google handiwork to find the car if it is at a dealer.
To OP: "love2drive" that will really become your motto now! What a beautiful car... gotta love those GTS hips! And with full leather and Sports suspension too!
As to insurance, I tend to reshop it every year. Since I have a pickup truck as a daily driver (yeah, I'm in Texas after all) my rates aren't too terrible since I list the Porsche as a for-pleasure vehicle (how true!) and my wife's car is reasonably modest. When I shop around I can get prices online fairly easily. I've been with Geico for two years now since their rates came in far below everyone else's even after what often seems to be a one-year teaser rate from many of the insurers. Try some of the online sites and see what you come up with, it usually takes about 10-15 minutes per site and is well worth it.
