I am a lucky SOB!

I have been casually shopping for a 911 for awhile and out of the blue found a local model that was just what I was looking for.

It's a one owner, unmolested 88 Carrera 3.2 Coup, with 79k miles, fully documented and has been serviced since new by the most respected P-shop in my area. In fact, the shop owner called and told me about the car.

At first I hesitated because I haven't been looking very seriously. But then I came to my senses and moved on it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Very nice. Is that one of those 914 kit cars? It almost looks like a tail dragger.

To tell the truth, I'm somewhat in a state of shock.

Kinda like this... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

You are now driving my dream car. Since I was a little kid and my neighbor had one. Send more pictures !!! The first one you sent is going to be my new screen saver. I hope you got a good deal. If you ever think about selling that beauty email me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

Thanks for all the positive comments!


Well, except for that wise crack about my shoes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I'm usually wearin' doc martins or vans. I thought the sandals were "stylin"... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


I suddenly seem to have so MANY errands to run. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)


Anybody wanna go anywhere?

Damn nice car Joe!

You picked the best Porsche had to offer before the 964's and 993's.

To this day Porsche still uses a version of the G50 tranny in their race cars as well as a updated version of the 3.2/3.6 engine case.
