Great information on both the break-in period and that fantastic European drive....I think I will incorporate Val Gardena and the Sella Pass into our trip. Thanks!
Well, finally got my car this week.....really amazing engine and transmission. The ride is amazingly good on our S$&@ Québec roads. Happy about decision to go with MT without having test driven a 991.2 with MT. Super easy to drive smoothly, and then brutal when you want it to be, from low right up to high revs.

Glad you finally got it, enjoy!
I'm a month in and I still can't get enough of it...the GTS is simply amazing.
This would be a very difficult thing for me to do. I put away my MX-5 for the winter, but there’s no way I can put my GTS away. When I go a few days without driving her, I get the uncontrollable itch to go out and drive... even without a destination in mind. So I just put some snows on and will enjoy winter driving.

Agreed, it pained me to put car away. My Subaru Crosstrek doesn’t quite do the same.
Even with snow tires on, major issue here is horrible state of Quebec roads...snow covered potholes would destroy my rims within days. Especially with the Centre-lock rims, I would have been stuck with 20” winters with rubber band side-walls.
I’ll have to sign up for some winter driving at Camp 4!

I didn’t realize Quebec roads were that bad. I’ll see how my GTS with centrelocks fares in the GTA. I don’t have N spec winter tires, but they are winters nonetheless and the right size for the centrelocks (the rear 305s being very difficult to accommodate). Crossing my fingers.

Yeah....I’m from the GTA originally, major difference in road quality here.
Used the winter check list from Porsche to get her tucked in for the winter.
Got some nice rubbber gym mats from Fitness Depot and laid them down triplicate under each tire (inflated to 50 PSI)....hopefully no flat spots!
Just took delivery of my C2GTS a few days ago and I'm trying to get a few miles on it before it gets to cold and/or snowy and I have to put it to sleep for a few months. My question to you is: why the blue tarp under your car and why are you tying it up over the wheels?? Also, I assume the wires going under the cover are for a battery tender. Do you plug this into a 12V outlet in the cabin?
