Picked up my new 991S today

I've put 120 miles on it so far, and one word...amazing. Totally worth the price of admission. So much better than the previous generation, in my opinion. In the red/black the car has a real presence. The PSE is essential. The SPASM is perfect for me, and the Burmester system rocks.

I was practically set on a 981 Cayman S after having 2 997S for something different. I'm so glad I choose to stay with the 911.

SPECS:
2013 991 Carrera S coupe
Guards Red
Black Full leather int
7 spd manual
PSE
Sport PASM
Sport Chrono
Premium pkg plus
18way adaptive sport seats plus
Guards red seatbelts
Crests in headrests
Burmester audio
SportDesign steering wheel
Smoking pkg
Wheel center caps w color crest
model designation delete
no sunroof

Couple of phone pics, will try to get some better ones and interior shots soon.

MAHack - congrats on picking up the car!!! It looks great, the guards red and black interior ties with the black underneath the side-mirrors and under the front bumper, and the colored wheel crests with the red, together they tie together beautifully. Nicely done!

Thank you all for the comments. The red definitely pops. I was initially thinking the car looks best in Agate or Silver but I wanted something a little louder this time around.

The 964 in my avatar which was sold recently is the same combo.

that is a nice build - i almost went for a guards red 7sp manual but thought i would give a more loaded PDK a try.

that stereo does sound amazing doesn't it.

Looks very similar to mine...so of course I think it looks great! Congrats. And a reminder I need to have the car washed asap to get it looking that good again.
