Default Finally got my C4S!!!

It was the longest week for me since I signed the contract 10 days ago!
I was watching YouTube videos, reading RL treads every night to make the time goes by faster.
and finally, I took my baby home! ( strange that I have many nice cars before but never felt this way)

First drive impression: car is low to the ground and feel like go cart ( I was driving X6M so this lost 2000 lbs )
Throttle is very deep and have to really go in to get the car going, which is very good for track use but Again I have to get used to since my X6M had so much torque I could just tap the throttle and shoot through traffic. Anyway, can’t wait to drive it more to really enjoy it!

BTW, the smoked side markers looks good once installed, and it’s Amber when light up. Maybe I will change it to white later.

Nice car. You must be torque spoiled by your BMW if you think the 991.2 is deficient.

I was thinking the same thing. I have a 991.2 GTS and I've never once felt I had to bury the throttle to get good acceleration/torque.

Nice stable! I test drove a ‘17 X5M, and that engine is amazing. Pulls really hard, and I suffered a little driving it at city speeds.

Congratulations. Love the color. Yeah for all the talk of how fast the new turbos are, you still need the revs except that now it hits hard between 4-6k rpms. Below 3k rpms, it is a pussycat no matter what the torque curve says.

Looks great! Looks a lot like mine from the front at least. Mine is a C2s. Have fun and hit some curves.

Took the car out to the canyon for a bit today, what a car! It’s so stable and on rail, and the ride is not too much punishing

4.4L twin turbo V8 with 560 hp and 550 ft lbs, likely underrated. That’s quite a big jump on a 3 liter flat 6, weight otherwise. Make no mistake, that is a STRONG engine.
