Beautiful car. Congratulations.

Great choice. Porsche is one of the only brands I would go to after my C63. They are amazing cars

I know this is an MB forum and all, but many (not all) of the world's finest automobiles are VAG products. To name a few, Bugatti, Bentley, Lamborghini, Porsche, Audi.

My 2c.

I like how you called them VAG cars

First, I was kidding.

Second, the historical/technical connection between VW and Porsche/Audi is a totally different animal than its connection to Bugatti, Bentley and Lambo. One is quasi-genetic and the other contractual.

Picked up the car yesterday. Some delivery pics below.

That is simply glorious, and fully deserving of being the final act in the 997 saga. It's essentially a GT3 with the expected civility of a normal 911.

Congratulations once again.

Congrats on the "New" enjoy the ride

I love the wider rear fenders. Congrats!
But just a Q which wasn't asked until now - why did you buy a 997 if the new model is about to come out?

1) I loved my 2007 C2S that I gave up for the AMG when our 2nd child arrived
2) There is no certainty the new 991 will be better. I don't like the idea of a longer car; I would shave 4-6 inches and 2-300 lbs off the 997.
3) I never buy 1st year of a new model - too many bugs to work out. So my wait would be 2+ years.
4) With the power kit, the GTS will be near or slightly more hp than the new "S", whatever it's called.
5) Unlikely to offer 2wd/widebody combo or centerlock wheels on 991.

Congrads on the new ride!

Enjoy in great health!

Damn, what a nice car. I'm jealous!

Beautiful car. Look at the detail put into the exhaust tips alone.
Have fun!

Post some real pics when you can.

Ive wanted a 997 since the first day the spy shots hit the web, this car is simply amazing. I think you should keep this one for the long haul!

gravedgr

I promise I will. For now, all I have is a quick video of a cold start without, and then with, the porsche sport exhaust turned on.

let us know how it compares to the 2011 gt2rs if you get a chance to drive one of those too. i should be picking up a 997 tt some time in the next year, but that's a while down the road.
