A new garage buddy for my GT3 - A GTS!

Got another garage buddy for my GT3 and Macan Turbo....a very fully speced white GTS 4 Cabriolet.

It's one of the last GTS 4 Cabs built very late last year. Was used as a demonstrator by the dealer.

I tossed and turned over buying this or a new 991.2 S Cab. So I test drove it, liked it then bought it. The price was irresistible.

Unfortunately I am travelling for the next 2 weeks so will not pick it up until I get back.

It's going to be a great summer! :)

Very nice, I'd ask why get both but I know the answer is why not. :D

Congrats. Look forward to hearing your driving impressions vs the GT3. Impressive stable.

Very sharp. The white/black is a great look. Those seat backs look sweet too. Many great top down drives this summer :thumbup:

3 Porsches and not a single one is manual? Come on!

Sorry but a manual holds no appeal for me these days and that's from a guy who has lost count of how many manuals cars I have had over the years.

The old line that a manual gives you greater connection to the car no longer washes with me not when I can do stuff in my GT3 that I could never do in a manual, both on the road and on the track.

For example, on the way back from Germany today on the autobahn, the rapid fire up shifts when flat out up thru 4th, 5th and 6th on the way to 260kph and the associated pops it makes is for me truly thrilling...or hitting 240kph along Kemmel straight at Spa then hard on the brakes followed by 3 rapid fire down shifts before Les Combes is absolutely exhilarating. Nope, no manual for me anymore.

Different stroke for different folks I guess.

In the spirit of "photos or it didn't happen", I finally managed to find the time to take delivery of my new C4 GTS cab 1 month after I bought it and get it home. Here it is with its stable mates.

Let me guess, your Mini Cooper is also white. :)

Very nice collections, love that red graphic on the GT3 and congrats on the new GTS.

A car for every occasion, what a great collection! :thumbsup:

The Cooper S is black actually. My wife mainly drives it and the Macan Turbo. She calls it her little black sheep of the family. It's her favourite car.

Hmmm.

Must be hard to choose which one drive. Nice to have choices.

Jnosol 05-17-2016 05:53 PM

Wow, congrats on the new GTS. I'm admiring your stable. :D
