It is a bad ass car...so much fun to drive and this one is just about as perfect as you will find. I was lucky to have found it!
Trimer,
Good call on picking up this 89 951 and 04 996.

To early to judge long term but I really like the 911. I am still morniing my box though.
996s are a bargain for sure. Enjoy!!!
