Default The new ride...actually two!

I've been looking for months for a low mileage 997 turbo with carbon fiber interior. I missed out on buying two of them. As soon as I saw this one I flew out to check see it and bought it the same day. It only has 7k miles on it.

These are the wheels that's on order. 20's!



And yes, my friends make fun of me for getting another Porsche. It's slow, gay, etc, etc..but it's ok!


I have this to handle business!! Full interior, Ac, streetcar cable of running high 8's soon!!

Getting the nitrous and traction control dialed in!!

that 997 is gorgeous. i'm guessing with 7k miles its in the 110 range?
IMHO, those bodies look best with a huge deep lip wheel. really makes it look more aggressive.

I still like the 911, good choice Duy. I was pretty close to buying a white GT3 RS a couple years ago.
