My new Porsche Carrera S

I have to admit when I saw the thread title I thought, great another rich guy gets his toy. Because you know, I am just jealous and petty because I don't have one. However, I can tell this is your dream and you worked hard for it, deserve it, and will take great care of it.



I can't wait for the pictures. I can tell you are pumped.



Congrats on the awesome car.



No, not rich by any means. Just now going to blow what I have left from inheritance on this toy! It's do it now or never be able to. I'm just a working stiff like the rest of us!



And yes, I'm pumped! :woohoo: :woot2:

The shop has a full new bottle of Menzerna P085RD to "play" with to get used to it prior to them doing my car. I've seen the work they do and it's 100% Autopia standards!



That's *great* news! I'd been worrying about the new car prep starting you off on the wrong foot.

need an update on the new wheels



I'm still waiting.... :hm I know it will be in shortly. Maybe by next week it may be at the dealer.



Once there, Satellite goes in, K-40 radar, Armorglove...



Trust me, when it arrives, EVERYONE will know! :p

I can feel your excitement and it makes me excited for you - you know, in a man happy for his friend kind of way. :nervous:

:lol :lol Now That's funny! You're right! It blows waiting, but the wait is almost over!



Dealer is dying to see it as well! It's the most optioned one they've ever ordered! Although it did not go too much into the Exclusive shop, it sure did pick-up performace items short of the X51 power kit (26HP gain for $17K..NOT) that kit was way overpriced. A few minor mods and I'm past 26HP.



:work: "Is it time to pick-up the Porsche?" :aww:



Once it arives, lots of pics to follow.

HOLY CRAP! IT ARRIVED AT THE DEALER JUST NOW! :woohoo:



I just got word my Porsche C2S has arrived at the prep center location of the dealership! :woohoo:



I'm going to sneek out and get to see her today I hope!



Oh man this is just soooo cool! :D

No question the kit is over priced but it is completely factory and comes with the factory warranty. It also does include substantially more than a few aftermarket bolt ons.



The factory X51 gets you an enlarged carbon fiber air box with two (not one) intake snorkels, completely different aluminum intake manifolds (as compared to the standard 3.8), different heads, different cams, different exhaust manifolds and an ECU reprogrammed to optimize the changes. It also includes the PSE. The drivability of the package is incredible (and really different than the standard 3.8 which is still awesome). Lots more low end torque (and throughout the power band) along with an increase in peak HP and a freer reving engine than the standard 3.8. Becareful of aftermarket claims in the world of Porsche. The factory does a good job getting things right on the NA cars and most aftermarket modifications may increase the peak HP numbers but the result is frequently a decrease in low end torque.



You already have arguably the coolest option in the book in my opinion. The PCCB's :bigups. The PCCB's are simply incredible with an awesome initial "grab" and absolutely no fade. Not to mentioin they look fantastic.



Screw the dealer prep/detailing go get the car and drive it. Enjoy. We can't wait to hear your initial impressions.
 
Yea I know the X51 is more than simple mods!



I have the PSE added!



I JUST went to see her! OH MY GOD! THIS IS ONE SICK CAR!!! :woohoo:



Pics to come soon, I left w/o camera, but dealer is sending me pics! It will be as it sits now!



OH MAN I'M PUMPED!



Next week, Sammy Hagar get's put in and I listen to "I CAN'T DRIVE..55!" while I also listen to the engine through the PSE! :xyxthumbs :D

Next week near the end of it as it looks now due to all the items I'm adding. I'm scheduled for the satellite kit on the 13th. Prior to that, the K-40 radar goes in then the last item will be Armorglove once I get done polishing with the Menzerna P085RD.



I hope by Monday I'll have pics as I'll go to the dealer to finish some paperwork and this time, bring the freakin' camera! It may be dirty still, but at this point, who cares!



I started it up yesterday for the first time. Oh man that PSE sound sooo nice. There's even a hack to enable it on all the time, just by disconnecting one clip, it stays loud! :woohoo: :getdown



I wanted to go today to the dealer to get some pics, but have several things to do damn it!



At least next week looks to be really good weather too! :D



More to follow!
