I do not normally like black coloured cars but got to say that model looks good in black. Funny how certain models/shapes look better in some colours than others. Enjoy.

Yeah, i'm with you. I felt this one had to be black, dark grey, or silver. In that order.
Thank you!

Finally I see your beauty. Congratulation. Anyone can wear a Rolex but only few can drive a 911. It’s a special car with a rich history. A lot of people can only dream about your car but you made smart decision to be able to afford one.

Now turn on the exhaust sound option every time you drive. It’s heaven.

Although I'm normally a dark coloured dial fan, i think on your wrist the white looks better and a nice contrast to the black Porsche.

No doubt!! I've never owned a convertible and it's also on the one day list :)
Yep love the wheels too. Washed it the other day and OMG so much brake dust after only 100 miles or so LOL

Thank you! Yes, i am a dark coloured dial fan too, but i think too that white looks just a tad better.

FYI, think about getting the wheels ceramic coated... I did this on my Cayman and it made it much easier to clean.
