Hello from Detroit!

Just picked up a New Hampshire based 2002 986 base with tip. Was garage kept, never wintered, with 33k miles. 1st drive was 900 miles back home. Performed like a champ. Hope to get a good month of driving in before tucking her in for the season.

Nice! Getting 900 highway miles on it was likely the nicest thing you could do to your car.
