Seen in SoCal: Porsche 911 Carrera 4S

Posted by Jeff Glucker on Monday, September 08, 2008 1:18 PM

Porsche Carrera 4S Rear
The classic lines of the Porsche 911 are beautiful even in Heinz 57 red.

I was walking to my car (the 2008 Infiniti G37 Sport that I am reviewing), and I noticed a 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S sitting nearby. Sure the red color catches your eye, but upon second glance, it was the Porsche's license plate that struck me.

People dream of many things, but for this person that dream was a Porsche, and they reached out to get it.

Porsche Carrera 4S
Men drive Porsche 911s, while boys drive Infiniti G37s ... wait ... !

I had a chance to chat with the owner of the Carrera, or more accurately the son of the owner. He stated that this is his father's car, but he (the son) is using it right now as his daily driver. It is loaded with tasteful Tech Art mods (wheels, exhaust, etc.). His father lives in Colorado, where he has apparently moved on to bigger, better dreams and now drives a Porsche GT3. The Carrera is currently for sale, so if you are interested in more info, please shoot me an email at JGlucker@NADAguides.com.

I often dreamed of Porches as a child, so to see someone who not only shared that dream but also achieved it, makes me feel fuzzy inside. If you work hard and keep your goals in mind, you can achieve them and get what you want in life. Thus ends the Tony Robbins portion of this post ... now back to gawking at cool cars.

Nice find, this Porsche is done just right. The mods are in line for this car and if I had the money I would give you a shout. Think he would take a 2001 Suburban in trade!?!?

Keep shooting these cars Jeff, you must hang out in a pretty cool area....

@Don: Thanks... this is definitely a cool car, and I may have made fun of the color a bit but the owner told me that it is actually called Guards Red and is quite famous in the Porsche community...
Personally, I would still go with black or silver... but the car does look great.

The Dream is real - and it's out there, just waiting to be seized.
