Just though I'd share...

My aunt's 997.2 911 Carrera S cabriolet which she bought in February. She is a huge car person, especially after her 35 years at Chrysler :P It is pretty much fully loaded interior-wise, PDK(6MT hurts her hip) and the sport chrono package and performance-wise it has the sport exhaust. She had a 1999 996 Carrera cabriolet before it, which she traded in to get this one. That one was a proper manual which she taught me how to drive stick in :P Unfortunately she has gotten pretty sick and hasn't been able to drive it. Luckily for me, she lets me drive it sometimes. Now when I posted something like this on 6speedonline, I was flamed for driving her car because everyone said I was going to crash it, and that I shouldn't drive something I can't pay for. But I know Teamspeed is a better forum than that :)

Sorry for the poor picture quality, all of these were taken on my iPhone. Regarding the first pic where I'm "posing" with the keys, my aunt took that of me as a joke for my mother :hilarious: I was also flamed for that on 6speed :(

Hey Stephen,

You are too young to be driving around in a Mercedes, trade it in for a Porsche.:whistle:

Beautiful spec! Your aunt has great taste. I also like the BBS wheels she put on her 996.

You're a lucky guy to get to drive a car like that. Enjoy it!

I hope your aunt's health improves so she can get another manual trans Porsche some day.

Thanks everyone! Yeah, she's really awesome and has a pretty good taste when it comes to cars. She's actually one of the main reasons I got into cars.

Your aunt definitely has great taste in automobiles. And I don't think you'll get any flames here. Seems like you're wise enough to realize the opportunity you have to drive such fantastic cars at a young age -- appreciate and enjoy!

Cheers... (and :welcome: from one Connecticut guy to another)

Thank you, I'd like to think so :P

If you don't mind me asking, where in Connecticut are you?
