Default 991.1 C2S New Member Intro
Hey all,

Just picked up a 'new to me' Black on Black 2012 991 C2S PDK with 11,700 miles. I bought this 10 days before my 30th birthday. This is my first Porsche. I have owned BMW, Infiniti, Land Rover and Jaguar. I have this currently put away for the winter and DD a 2017 Jaguar F-Pace.

Waiting for a SharkWerks X-Pipe which should be delivered sometime next week.

Glad to join the community!

Nice car congrats!

How do you like the F pace? Buddy got one recently but I haven't ridden in it yet.

I have yet to own an exotic (see list provided at the initial post). Glad to have added a proper sports car to the line up though

I love it. Plenty of power and is outstanding in the snow. I opted for the 2017 with the 3.0L Supercharged engine since that engine was no longer available in the trim I wanted. Its a lovely vehicle and haven't had any issues yet!

I still find it amazing to find a 5 yr old car with only 11k on it. It’s just a car, albeit a Porsche. Drive it and enjoy it.

Welcome to the forum and enjoy your new toy. I'm sure you'll have some great moments with it. Just do yourself an favor and make sure your spoiler is not deployed in pictures as a standstill or you'll be placing yourself in the line of fire

I know, I was shocked to find a local low mileage example with the exact options I wanted at a steal of a price. Thanks!

Many congrats on your great looking 991!

And 'Welcome to the Porsche Family" as my sales executive said to me when I collected my first Porsche!
