The 3l turbo seems to be very well oiled, exchanges heat well and maintains very stable temps - my max oil temp on track, to date, was 120 degrees C (248 f) - range 114 to 120 (238 f to 248 f) over 6 laps (air temp 23 degrees C).
Going to need a bit of running in of engine and tyres but feels great and rides very smoothly, given the size of the wheels and the lowered suspension. Went over a speed bump by mistake that I didn’t see but no nasty noises. Took a few pics before the rain came:
I’ll wait a few hundred miles before starting to drive it “properly” but I shall report the results. Interesting how much info there is available on the instrument cluster - as well as ‘g’, the FTSE-100 and phases of the moon you can see yourself going up and down the torque curve.
Seats comfy, even my mum liked them!
First impressions are light and airy, you can definitely hear the engine but it’s not intrusive. There is a fair amount of tyre roar on rough surfaces but with 305/30s on 20” rims, what do you expect? Steering is very natural, RWS I noticed in the turning circle but haven’t gone round corners with any commitment yet to tell the difference. The 4WD, likewise.
The day I get my first 911, we went to means-tested speeding fines in the UK! That one went under the radar for most of us...

Congrats! Enjoy!
I've got until August for my similarly spec'd GTS4. But thanks for posting. I can enjoy looking at yours in the meantime!

Very nice. That's a PASM car, not a SPASM car, correct?
