Goodbye for now folks!

Beautiful car. I love how you didn't take the standard badging. The "911" always looks great...Unless you get a Turbo S...That I'd keep :P

Hoping to get a 991 in the next few years myself. Very nice car.

What an upgrade, congrats and good for you!!

The 911 will lead a privileged existence in Naples, FL starting in a month or so

BMWs will always be an option for me. Loved every one of them. And BMW's European delivery program cannot be beat!

Nice to hear you're giving her a nice warm home...Watch the sun damage!! Can't think of a better place to drive a Porsche. Ever hear of Champion Porsche of Pompano??

Congrats and enjoy

Nice upgrade man. I am really jealous now

hardtothepaint · 03-02-2014, 11:03 PM

Amazing car! Definitely a good upgrade!

redline2001 · 03-03-2014, 05:39 PM

thank god its a manual

upstatedoc · 03-03-2014, 07:11 PM

Not a big fan of cabs but man that is a sharp looking car!
I see you opted for the "man pedal" too.

GMe90 · 03-03-2014, 07:18 PM

Awesome car! Congrats!

ede92 · 03-03-2014, 07:26 PM

Thanks guys

I was choosing between a Boxster S with PDK tranny I custom ordered and this 911 that they had in stock.

I drove them back-to-back and the 911 with its exhaust note and roomier interior won me over. Along with the silky gearbox. May be the last manual I own.

This is one of the first 911 cabs I liked. I think its the color scheme overall. Also it looks like a cloth-only top but is made up of 3 magnesium panels that allow them to sculpture the roof to look more like a coupe.

No one on this forum is buying cars because they are practical

That pic shows the shelf down like my 328 cab has.
