Just picked up an 04 S

It was Black Friday so I got a black P. It's my first P. Now I understand the permagrin...

I looked at a bunch, drove several, this one was in such good condition I couldn't pass it up. 42k, Bose, PSM, 18" Carreras.

Now does anyone know of a GPS with a 'only take back roads with multiple 's' turns and minimal stop signs" option?

Congrats and welcome! There actually is an app for that, take a look at "GTS Routes" in the App Store. Enjoy your new ride:cheers:

Epic!
 
I am new to the Porsche world, as well.

I bought my 2004 S "50 years of 550 Spyder Edition" earlier this year.

After 22 years of Miata ownership, I "get it" now.

You picked a good one. I love that option package.

:cheers:

Beautiful car and color combo - congrats and drive her in good health!

Nice bonus in being prepared for DE/Track w/ BK roller extension too.

Good luck :)

Bruce.. thanks for the tip, downloaded!

10/10ths..very nice, a Special Edition!

Burg, Thanks, funny I didn't mention to my wife the purpose of the extra roll bar :)

Frank, it looks like someone bolted on an aftermarket rollbar on your car. Was it tracked?

Frank N 12-01-2015 02:38 AM

Not sure if it has been tracked, but it will be next summer. :)

In the meantime, I just drive it likes it stolen.... :D

On these cars as long as maintenance was kept up with the roll bar indicating heavy track use should be good news.

On the 997 I looked at where the guy used it mostly on the track and put Recaro seats in it, stay away!
