Good Luck Dragon! I just don't understand how you just unload something you have put so much of yourself into. I guess I could sell my car....for enough money.....maybe......later.

Although I must admit that it is definitely hard to look at the BEAST sitting in the garage waiting for shipment and not want to drive it. This car begs to be driven as this new buyer will soon find out. However, I must refrain and respect the fact that it is now sold and already paid for.
I will still be hanging around the board and will continue to be an active member. I'm hoping that the new buyer joins as well. That would be cool. It will be nice to see this car "live on".

Congratulations on selling used parts at 100% of what you paid for them! Never heard of that before, especially on high performance parts that were raced hard and have no factory warranty. You made out very well on that sale. Buy the new Alfa four door that just came out and bring it to the States

Hey Josh, it's not a bad thing that you're moving on to a new car. It's just too bad that you decided to sell it right after you got it to where you needed it to be. Not enough time to enjoy all the mods.
Well, can't wait to see what your next ride is so keep us posted!

I know where a GT2 is for around 115K Black..so hawt
The 997TT's are just as fast as the GT2 and GT3's or so the rumors go..they come out end of year.

What do you guys all think about the 996 TT? I have found several in the low 70k range with under 25k miles.
I found a tiptronic that they'll let for for 69k (here it is http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1 ). I live in Vegas (almost as much traffic as California) and sit in 1 hour of bumper to bumper everyday.... as much as I don't want an automatic Porsche turbo, I'm starting to think it will be more practical. Thoughts?
I'm going to drive the 997 S today. I saw one sell 2 days ago on eBay for 74,600 with only 4500 miles.

Tiptronic? are you OUT of your MIND!!!!!!!!!
Its all about the 6 speed, bro the 997 Cararra S with the sportchrono package rocks.
If not get the 996TT or GT3
