    Heh, you definitely won't miss me around town. 360/2222 are my stomping grounds during the week (work at Bridgepoint).

    Same here, and I don't even work o/o that area. Seem to "miss" the Westlake Drive turn suspiciously often hocked. Ending up on 2222 after the bridge...taking the "short cut" back home via Bee Caves...
    "Ran" into a red GT3 this past Saturday - GT3 just looks the business .

    The red one is owned by a friend, first one delivered in Austin. He (Henry) is an insane track hound. Henry looks more like my avatar.

    My first 911 was yellow ('76) but it was a dog, even back in '86 when I got it. I like yours much better. Congrats - you found the ultimate 997 performance update . My hats off to you. Back to my 'old' launch car for now.
    Cheers -

    Re: Recent delivery; quick pic of the new ride

    Thanks guys! I know SY is not for everyone, but this new car does wear light colors very nicely and the black wheels tie in all the other black highlights.

    On further thought, I know I will be looking forward to even some better experiences. The motor to me is a bit 'tight' and its well known that porsche motors get a bit stronger and free-er revving as you get some miles on the car. It'll be a joy logging those miles!
