    I was a Porsche guy long before I got my first Ferrari. I got a new job and I will be driving all over New England,so I was looking for a car that would energies me for the long rides home .A fiend was selling his 05 997 and I could not let it go buy.This is buy far the best car that Porsche has ever built !! It is as fast as the 355. handles like no other Porshce I have ever been in .and it is very comfortable I love it

    Wow, great "driver". Enjoy in good health. The seal grey always suits the 911.

    one of the great things about having a lift is that it is a great tool for cleaning.I put the car on the lift and pull off the wheels to clean them . Thanks for the kind words on the car ,it is a great DRIVE

    Jeez, they beat me to the punch. I was going to say that I hope it was a good deal because there are no wheels on it! ;)

    Seriously, what a cool daily driver! How are those things in the snow? Are you really going to drive it year around?

    i should say good weather driver ,like any car with big fat tires it will suck in the snow ,,if you needed it to drive in the winter you could put 4 snow tires on it and it would be great in the snow ,,,,but not for me

    Cool, just figured the C4 would battle the snow a little bit more in the all year round driving.

    Great car nonetheless. Enjoy.

    Cheers,

    David,
    Wonderful Porsche!
    1. It is not air cooled. Is it still a 911?
    2. Bit different than your '72?
    3. See the 355, where is the 360?
    See you on the Cape soon,
    John
