^^”high” mileage 991.2s make me smile because they didn’t need to wait to be 10 years old and on their third owner to be enjoyed. Kinda like my soon to be fixed windshield. It’s a scar of enjoyment.

Agree completely! I too kinda like the minor ‘battle scars’ on my ‘high mileage’ T. Proud to own an outstanding daily driver, and lucky too!

I got to watch the action from a tower while operating flags! Great fun.

Ugh, these GT Silver Ts slay me—I came so close to ordering one, and still have (far too late) second thoughts.

But the funny thing is how much I've grown to dig the T in Racing Yellow. Not a "yellow car guy" except for a very few cars. This is one of them, and it somehow underlines a subtle connection between the narrow-body, twin-turbo 991.2s and Ruf's CTR "Yellow Bird." Yes, on the one hand the cars could not be more different, and yet…

I like to think of my T as a young, distant relative of the “Yellow Bird” and I’ve seriously toyed with the idea of getting some Ruf wheels to strengthen the link...!

Ruf wheels would be very fitting!

As your new financial advisor, I say its a sound investment

Ha ha! Sooooo tempting! Will have to re-stock the piggy bank first! But they could look good on my T...

I think they look great, but these won’t fit as they are the wrong offsets.
