Looks good!

Now, in my opinion it needs you to use a jack, jack stand and a 10mm ratcheting wrench on it.

No, he's going to wait until next year when it's another $2K + more or maybe a 2016 when it's $7K + more than the pre March 3, 2014 price.

I have a love hate thing with black car.

I love black because when it is clean and polished it is the most beautiful car color ever made. When I was younger every new car I ever bought was black. As I got older I did not have the time nor energy to keep it looking nice so i switched to white then silver.

Your car looks beautiful and I wish I could have had a black C7 but any color C7 is beautiful.

I do not like yellow calipers but they look good on your car because they make a nice contrast with black. I like the black calipers but they would have looked terrible on an all black car (no contrast)

Hey! Somebody sneaked in a set of yellow calipers and ruined the whole black on black on black theme!

(Just kidding. Looks very nice.)

they say black is beautiful-you proved them right. one comment: if youre going to keep the chrome grille, look at my recent post "OMG, WHTWBH". its self explanatory, and next stop could be C&D--or at least corvette times

My thoughts exactly, I can't believe how high the ride height is...None the less beautiful car, anxious to hear your feedback vs. your 991 P Car.

If you're in town this weekend, I'll be out in Lakeway with my buddy who has a NRB C7 on Sat--keep an eye out for us. Watch your speed!

Will write up thoughts vs 911 in a week or two. It's tough to find anything negative so far.
