1M Released from VPV / Clear Bra Installer in Houston

997Houston · 06-07-2011, 08:15 AM

My VO has been released from VPC and will be in Houston later this week.

Anyone have a recommendation on a clear bra installer in Houston.

Other 1M's in Houston? Meet?

Did your car come into Brunswick, GA on the Boat - if so...it came on the same boat as mine! I understand your anticipation. Can't wait....

997Houston · 06-07-2011, 08:45 AM

Same boat!

i'm in Houston...only other guy i know with a 1M now is Hilmii (VO). 21450 is probably in Germany now doing his ED...and another member is waiting for his car.

I'm probably going to the uptown meet this saturday evening. If your car arrives by then, do stop by...those guys will prob. know a good clear bra installer.

rzm3 · 06-07-2011, 09:19 AM

I would recommend Driver Source for clear bra installation.

Definitely come to the meet on Saturday if you can.

I'm waiting to board plane now, my ED is in 22 hours

Congrats 997H, I'm up for a meet when I get my car back in US.

My AW should be here in Houston in 4-5 weeks (in production now). Looks like H-town got its fair share of 1M's. Cool that there is at least 5 1M in houston on the board. I can't imagine there are too many more that have been delivered! Looks like the 1M really is an enthusiasts car.

TXmtrhed · 06-07-2011, 02:58 PM

Picked mine up 3 weeks ago, the week after hlmii got his. Heading to the hill country this weekend to finish breaking in the engine. I know, I know, it should be already but I've been traveling.

Let us know who does your clear bra, I was thinking about talking to the Drivers Source too but I haven't had time. Definitely want to apply it before I go to the track.

Congrats! My ED is on the 27th. Any chance you live anywhere near Ferrari of Houston? I'd love to see it, as would all of my co-workers, if you stop by with it. I have yet to see it in person.

997Houston · 06-09-2011, 08:56 AM

Still waiting for car to arrive at Advantage. Will be at Sat. meet if it's here. I'm near I-10 & 610 so I'm near Ferrari of Houston.

Franklin Joseph · 06-09-2011, 09:24 AM

advantage midtown? hope you get the car...would be nice to have 2 1Ms at the meet.

Nice! I spent three days there in March with my new Ducati Multistrada 1200S. I love the "three sisters" loop of 335,336, and 337. 16 just west of Kerrville is also a fantastic road.

997Houston · 06-10-2011, 12:08 PM

Just got an email from Advantage, 1M is finally here (apparently there was a truck issue) and I'm picking it up this afternoon!!!!

Franklin Joseph · 06-10-2011, 10:14 PM

Did ya get it?

997Houston · 06-11-2011, 11:40 AM

Picked it up last night. I'll be at the meet tonite.

Franklin Joseph · 06-11-2011, 12:49 PM

rad doc · 06-12-2011, 02:27 PM

By any chance do you work/park your car in Downtown? My wife's coworkers saw a VO 1M parked in their parking garage (Houston center)

997Houston · 06-28-2011, 08:40 PM

I'm downtown and park in the lower reserved garage attached to our building, a couple of blocks from Houston Center.

Franklin Joseph · 06-30-2011, 09:05 AM

initially thought it was you...but turns out there's another VO in downtown.

was driving in to work this morning, and was so happy to see a VO on the road. Pulled up next to it and honked/waved, but nothing, she looked straight. I noticed it had a chapman bmw temp plates. So i drove off and was dropping my wife off (at the Houston center, infront of Massa) and the VO pulled up and went in the parking lot. So that's the car my wife's coworkers saw.

Was nice seeing a 1M rolling on the road...VO looks good under the sun.
