Be cool if you posted pics of your car as well 😎
I will, eventually! She's in a sad state right now. Flat tyres, covered in dust, half the interior has been ripped out. Loads to be done, but nothing too difficult.

No worries , nice the Site can be of assistance to you. As things progress , though , you might enjoy documenting things on here as P Coastal suggested. Not necessary but it does make it fun to see the progress and others often jump in to help with concerns or friendly advice.

Totally agree with this!! A lot of times, the 'before' pictures are the most interesting! I put a lot of effort into restoring my father's old 450SL, for example, and I very much regret taking almost no before pictures. People see the car now and assume it's just been a garage queen its whole life....

Either way -- Welcome aboard Redmund!

I'm new to Porsche-recently purchased a 2013 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. I love it-maybe a little too much-LOL. My wife is calling it my "mistress." It's amazing to see the Porsche badge on my steering wheel and realize I'm finally in a Porsche of my own. Very excited to immerse myself in all things Porsche. I've recently completed a couple of easy upgrades and it's exciting to feel the accomplishment of a couple DIY projects-even if they are super simple. My next venture will be to replace the driver's side power button switch. I'm getting the tools and the switch. Now I just have to watch a hundred YouTube videos, so I don't screw the job up. Any suggestion on this project will be gratefully appreciated.
Join PCA! You may see @Porsche4Live and me! We often do those runs with the group.

Jim from Oklahoma. Drove my first 911 in 1994. I fell in love that moment. Purchased a 2003 C4S in 2005, drove it for 19 years. It was special! I ordered a new C4S in 2023 and it arrived on January 10, 2024. Haven’t been able to really enjoy it much, but what we’v’e experienced is awesome.

Love the white , but I have to admit to being biased as my wife and I have had well over 20 white vehicles ( my wife drives a white Macan S now ). The color just looks great on a 911 and the added benefit of being easy to keep clean keeps drawing one back. Keep us posted and hopefully you won't see much of a delay waiting for the mystery computer part that needs to be installed.
