Default Got me a new 911 991 - With Pics

So a few days ago i posted on here that i was planning to buy a 991.

Yesterday i went and bought it and awaiting delivery (they are sorting out a few bits and bobs first)

This is the car i plan to put the GT3 front bumper on, i have spoke to the guy in Germany who has done this to his GTS, and it does sound like a right chuff on to do it properly (modifications are needed) but it can be done. Nice little project for me.

Anyway thought i would share. Its a 2012 with 19k.

I am delighted with it and cant stop grinning.

Looks great. White on white. I bet clear tail lights would look killer on it as well.

Enjoy.

Beautiful! I hope you like detailing and taking care of your interior. Love it!
I always wonder why Porsche does not include the triangle in their US cars. Are we less safety conscious than the rest of the world? They should make it mandatory in the US like in Europe to carry a safety triangle and safety vest.

Careful consideration recommended before changing out your front bumper . I have a 2016 Carrera GTS with the low GT front bumper and I am continually scraping the painted lower lip. If I could, I would have ordered the stock front bumper that is on your car. Much easier to live with and looks almost as good IMO.

Duly noted. My intention would be put put an unpainted matte black lower lip on, so this would take the brunt of any scuffing, and the ower lips arent too expensive so i would just change this if it got too bad.

Thanks for your comments everybody. Really looking forward to my delivery date (Monday coming)

Its a C2s, PDK with white leather. The car is in pristine condition, but i would have expected this coming direct from a Porsche dealer here in the UK.

I actually made a 500 mile round trip to view, test and buy it. But i guess a 500 mile round trip is a small one for you guys across the pond eh.
