    Back near home, along the barge canal next to one of my favorite restaurants, a cool rear view :

    And one more, quite civilized looking when at rest, but a veritable wolf-in-sheep's-clothing :

    Beautiful and lovely scenery, including the Golden Retrievers!



    One advice, when you save the final photo image, save it in .jpg format since its much smaller size (compressed) than the .bmp format which is much more KB's.
    When you save the final photo to the hard drive, either just name the image X.jpg (with the jpg extension), or choose jpg from the "file type" drop down box thats bellow the box where you write in the name (depends on the software, like in MS Paint) to save

    Thanks Carlos,

    Will do. Now if only I could figure out how to import some of that awesome Spanish coastal scenery you manage to set in your pics. . . .

    Re: More Beauty Shots of My New TSCab

    Very nice car... but two things: Get white blinkers and consider the C4S frontlip (see pic)... looks cleaner than the TT frontlip IMO. The car on this pic is not my TT, but since mine is black, I decided to post this one, because the look of the C4S frontlip is much easier to identify on a bright car.

    I have the C4S frontlip on my TT and didn't encounter any aerodynamical issues (no matter at what speed).

    Thanks Grant,

    BTW, my sister and her family live in Evergreen, Colorado up in the mountains just outside of Denver-splendid vistas. You must have a blast driving your P around up in those hills.

    As soon as I picked up the TSCab, that was one of my first thoughts, but just this week, my brother-in-law took a new job position in Connecticut back east, so they're leaving Colorado.

    Can't wait for the pics, Rami.

    I hope to post a few more myself, perhaps this weekend-I'm closing in on that official Porsche 2,000 mile break-in target.
