My new 1998 Porsche C2 996

[HGGuate]

Hey Guys.

Purchased my 1998 (Rest of World) Carrera 996 yesterday (1999 model in the states), C2, Burgundy, 6 Speed, 50K Km (about 35k Miles), full leather interior in Camel color.

What a great day. Had meetings all morning long followed by a great long lunch with dad.... talked for 3 hours, Great food and wine (....we decided we have to resume playing golf on weekends together sometime soon, after I told him how I miss seeing him since I had the triplets!!!.) Then back to the office for 45 minutes to sign papers, close up before the weekend and off to meet my seller.

Papers, Check... Insurance, Check... Keys and other deliverables...check. Baby slept alone in the garage, although I thought about going down to check on her a few times overnight. (I checked on my triplets instead.)

I spent today with my wife driving around town, seeing how it feels and getting used to the feel of a new (For me of course) Porsche 911. She loved it, except for the getting in and out of the car when wearing heels. I am going to the car races tomorrow, driving about an hour and a half to the track. Ill let you guys know how it feels on the highway.

Will be posting some Pics sometime soon. Cant tell you how nice it feels to stomp the gas and feel the seat pressing on my back.

cheers,

Hermann.
