Default New AW C7 owner!

Hey all, new to the forum here. Just picked up my new 2015 arctic white on black C7 1LT ZF1 M7 coupe. Was about to order a new '16 from my local dealer here in Manitoba when I found my exact spec on autotrader in Toronto. Previous owner ordered new to replace his Cayman and after just a few days of ownership decided he wanted his Porsche back. So his loss, my gain! Picked up last week Tuesday with 391 Kms on the clock and took off on a week long road trip to hit Ottawa for Canada day and New York City for Independence Day. Just got home yesterday and now have just over 4500 Kms on her. Has been an absolute blast so far. Achieved 38.5 mpg imperial cruising at 70 mph, which I thought was awesome! My '13 C6 never could do better than about 36.5 mpg. Anyways looking forward to a summer of cruising and learning on here!!

Good looking car...albeit, I'm a bit biased. Congratulations on the new ride! Now get rid of that chrome strip...just doesn't do it with the black wheels.
