Message	Sorting deliver now, hopefully get it next week. Can't wait. 2008 997 Turbo Cabriolet 6spd I'm not selling the Z just yet, I've never driven a porsche, so who knows, maybe I won't like it and I'll sell it and keep the Z? I actually am feeling a bit sad, I've owned 3 different Z32TT's over a 21 year period. I know the car like the back of my hand (expect the emissions systems apparently, lol), and they are super rare these days. Everytime I drive the car, somebody makes a comment, "What's that?, "Woah, super nice car", "Is that a turbo?", "Clean Z", etc. But, I've always wanted a 911 turbo cabriolet, so why not. Maybe i could convince the wife that I can take up both parking spots in our garage for the Z & the Porsche and she can battle street parking daily for family hauler, I somehow don't think that's going to happen. ha! To make it somewhat Z related. I still haven't figured out the the high HC's and NOX. The datascan values I'm reading from all the systems are all in spec, every single one, so I kinda give up at this point. I just got the Z back from the body shop, got the front-bumper resprayed and the ttop ding fix. The car is looking mighty fine.
