I put a lot of effort in my Turbo to get it "perfect.". It has over 40,000 of factory options and about 20,000 of aftermarket stuff including AWE Exhaust & GIAC flash so I don't feel "slighted."

But there I've got the "S". I will replace it this spring or when the 2012's hit with a new one.

I don't think you can get them anymore. She wanted a vanity plate that says GOR-JUS1. I told her don't you think that is being a little vain. She said it refers to the car - not her. Even though she is gorgeous.

Congrats!
Car was sold originally by a Pittsburgh dealer to a Doctor from Pittsburgh and then by a different Pittsburgh dealer to me so it has always been a local car.

Rules are made to be broken. Besides she deserves it putting up with me for 34 years.

She says no sometimes - not too often. Oh you're talking about buying something.

Really beautiful! Compliments
I'm sure your wife will enjoy it

Just a question...do you know why the first owner has sold it after only 600miles?

He drove an S550 that the lease was up soon. Bought this as his fun car and was going to lease another S550. He lived, in an older very high end area of Pittsburgh where driveways are small and very little off street parking and it was not very practical to have three cars - his two and his wife's. He traded it on a Panamara Turbo to combine practicality with fun.

I bought my first Porsche from them in 1978 and probably have purchased at least 20 from them since. When I bought the first one, Joe was the parts boy. Sad story there.
