Congrats! I have to ask; how frustrating is it to own a car like this on Oahu? I know there are some great driving roads, but with the low speed limits, and all the traffic, I get annoyed when driving my rental cars there. The big island is little better, but opportunities to wind out a 991, are pretty limited.

Congrats! Didn't you just get the C2 Black Edition a couple months ago? Hopefully you didn't take a beating trading it in so quickly...

Thanks guys, had fun with the BlackEdition but after driving the GTS it seems like a whole different animal...100% different car. PSE seems really different as well. I see a lot of guys are not happy with the PSE but on the GTS it does seem much louder than a friend's C2S with PSE. Have not seen any comparisons yet tho. IMHO the BlackEdition seems super tame compared to the GTS as well as the ride quality with PASM compared to the Base.

Living on an island does limit the "fun factor" but there are some spots where it is possible to "vent or let loose". Just gotta be careful here, SA said before I drove off "hey...don't get arrested"

Yep, I did find a few of those. What I don't like is how many unmarked vehicles there are, once you get outside of HNL, especially on the drive from HNL to Waialua via Pali to Kamehameah, or as my wife calls it, "The long way".

Enjoy that GTS, in good health!
