Congrats. I just saw the Orange one at the dealer last week. Wow, very cool. The only downside will be the attention you will get. Not exactly a subtle color.

Congrats on the purchase.

I went to my local toy store to look at the LE they had in stock and it bit me hard. I was VERY close to buying it but cooler heads prevailed. Did you get a discount from sticker and if so, how much? And as an earlier poster asked, what # did you get?

Well This is the long and short of it, Got the car last week @ Brian Harris Porsche Audi in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. My sales men was Pete Huff and the sales experience was 100% first class.

I got the car for my wife as a special gift for the 28th of this month. The car is in storage at this time till I give it to her on the 28th. I am in Houston this week for Thanksgiving, but will take some pics ASAP when I get back. I am trying to keep the car on the down low till the 28th, so it is hard for me to post and or talk Porsche till I give it to her.

I can say this, this is my first Porsche and the little I have drove it I love it. This thing is like driving my shifter kart. The suspension, acceleration, feel, speed, brakes are all great. I am 6'4" and weight about 230 and I fit great(with the top up) in this car.

I will post more and provide lots of pics after the big day.

Looking forward to some good times and will be looking for help from the community to make sure I get the most out of it.

Talk to you all soon, thanks in advance.

-Troy
