The one here looks absolutely brand new.... Nice!

My Carrera Classics came off a 08 997.1 with 32k miles. They are not flawless (7/10) but I was able to get them from a fellow PCA member for $800. I did have to purchased new TPMS and tires, but still not horrible.

Whoa... I don't like white cars in general but that is a gorgeous car. Is that Alpine White? I really really like the looks of the E90.

Yeah, it’s AW. I wanted Melbourne, but the pool of 6MT, slicktop, single hump E90s is insanely small.

I washed the X5 this morning. It was covered in dust/pollen. Of course by the time I got it back in the garage it had a fresh coat of pollen on it.
