Picked up New Years Eve

Arrived at the dealership on the 30th and I picked her up the next day. 2LT, Nav, Exhaust, Machine Face Wheels, full length stripes. The car is great and matches up with the best of the bunch, a 911 Carrera GTS. Individuals and equals, each with its own unique traits. No favorites here.

Along with the photo comes this tip of the day. For those who keep their car on a charger but don't like the wire sandwiched between the gasket and the sill, simply trigger the latch with a screwdriver or your finger. The processor will think the hatch lid is closed and the lights will go out. When finished, make believe the hatch is closed and open it as you normally would with the button or the remote. The latch will open and be ready to receive the hatch.

Thanks all for the kind comments. The stripes are a factory installed option and are available in a half dozen colors. Price is $995.

Awesome selection Ray. I ordered the same car on 12/17 with black wheels, mirrors and spoiler. Your pics look great! Yours is the first white / crystal red stripe I've seen with the painted roof like I ordered. Great looking car!
