Since this subforum could use some spicing up...here is my latest acquisition

The M cars are gone....and this 2014 Carrera CS has arrived. M5 got taken over, and the M3 got taken over plus $$$. HREs coming in two weeks along with Techart lowering springs. Window tint and opti-coat round it out for the mods I -- as of today -- foreseedoing to this car.

Surprising to see so many AMG and M car owners switching to the 991's. It's making my upcoming decision much easier.

Is the conquest program back?

Outstanding Matt,

Congrats on the new Speed Demon, I'm sure the proud new parent of the two M rides are truly grateful for being able to acquire some great cars. Can't wait to see the transformation.

If you took the luxury aspects of the M5 (and enhanced them) and took the driving feel of the M3 (and enhanced it), that's what you get, in my opinion. I dont have the low end torque of the M5 (or even maybe the supercharged M3 I had), but the interior is amazing, the electronics and Bose stereo are great, the sport plus mode and sport exhaust are faaaaaantastic.

I think BMW and Mercedes are sometimes viewed by some as stepping stones to Porsche. That's not me -- but if you go on the Bimmerpost forum there are a wave of recent members who switched over. I just fell in love with this particular Porsche and just snatched it up the day I saw it.

Thanks T!! Right now, I am going to keep it as these few aesthetic mods since it comes with the sport exhaust and the 991 chassis is so new there is not much out there in the form of performance additions. Even Sharkwerk's website doesnt have much for it.

Thanks!! I loooove the agate grey -- or any dark/steel grey for that matter. I never had it on a car before and this just stood out to me!
