Default Just Picked Her Up!

Hey folks, just got my first P car! I traded in an early model R8 V8 for a 991 C4S Cab. Just started to poke around on the forum but figured I'd introduce my new ride. Looking forward to many miles with the top down!

Cheers,

Mark

Did you drive it in the Chicago SNOW yesterday? Black Cabs are the best....

Beautiful. Here's hoping for some top down days here in the north before the really bad weather hits.

Would be highly interested in hearing your thoughts on the differences between an R8 and 991 once you have enough ride time. Congrats!

Thanks, the R8 was a lot of fun but I needed something with better drivability and more practical. Plus I wanted all the new tech the P has that was lacking in the audi.

Definitely need more seat time to get a feel for the performance/handling differences between the two. However, I can already say PDK is miles better then the clutch-less manual gearbox in the r8
