Gawd, look at the size of those front calipers! Makes my pants tight.

So your 997 scraped going into your driveway and the 991 DOESN'T?
That's great, but I'm confused as to how that can be.
BTW, the new car is gorgeous!

Why?
Well the 997 scrapes on the way up the hill.
OK go buy a new 991.
Thank you honey!

I moved from my Laguna Beach House to San Clemente---the house in San Clemente has a very accessible driveway--- I really enjoyed my other 911's---very distinct personalities---but this car is my favorite.
The car is heavily optioned---MSRP was @ $140k---as the second owner I paid substantially less-
PCCB---Love these brakes---the standard brakes are excellent but these are "special"
Burmeister(It sounds better than the BOSE....worth $6K hmmmm?)
adaptive seats(they don't fit me as well as my 650i seats)
PASM Sport with engine mount
PDK---I have always stated that I am a manual driver for life---this PDK is changing that fact.
Sport Exhaust(what a great option---loud when you want her to be and quiet when you don't---maybe an ideal wife?--just kidding)
a bunch of other options leather dash/doorpulls/floormats(lol)
I have already driven it @ 250 miles---all smiles
The prices on 911's have gone up quite a bit in the last 4-5 years----I remember buying a brand new 2006 911S with great equipment for $83K----Even with the price increase, in my opinion there is no other car that delivers the pure driving experience of a 911---not corvette, ferrari, jaguar, mercedes, etc---at any price---so I can guess $120K for a new 911 S is a sports car bargain---
I had an option to buy a GTS or a GT3---really loved them both---but the GT3 would be hard for me to use as a daily driver and the GTS was better, but not by much over the 911 with the PCCB's---I think the lower weight of the PCCB's partially closed the performance gap on the GTS----
Now I need to find a place that has Black PORSCHE CARRERA S emblems---
Cheers
