    Finally...it's me.... ONVESL!!!!

    I'm so excited. I just called the dealership today and my car is just 6 days out from the Port of Baltimore. I should be behind the wheel in less than two weeks. It's my first Porsche...a 997S, Seal Grey with Sport Chrono, Black Supple Leather heated seats, Bose 13 speaker audio, Leather Sport Steering, Sport Shifter. I've watched other guys on this forum talk about their ONVESL status, and looked forward to my day. It's going to be a tough two weeks, but it's going to be soooooo worth it!

    Well played. Mine comes at the end of April also. I'm getting nervous too. It's also my first Porsche.

    Congratulations! Just remember the 911 is a little tricky to drive fast so be gentle!

    Congrats! Mine was brought to the dealership from Baltimore today. Had a chance to check it out. Sweet thing!
    The car looked awesome although it's still dirty. They will put the clear bra on on Monday.
    Good luck with the wait. Here's a pick of my new baby....
