I owned two them, and I agree. And the 992.1 GT3 is markedly worse. They are track cars, even when you delete the wing and add a touring badge.

@toph4242 I looked into doing the conversion. You have to change the rails and it becomes ridiculously expensive. Part of the reason I ordered a second T.

@Dream in PTS thanks for the kind words. Agree about the 991.2 GT3 vs 992 GT3. Older version is the better/funner road car. 992 is the better track car.

Great shot. No safety concerns driving a 911 in remote areas in Mexico? I grew up in Colombia so I'm not safety paranoid...but not sure I could own and enjoy a 911 back home.

Between Mx and Col we cover the full supply chain of cocaine lol

Absolutely fantastic. A car of my dreams. My congratulations! It's like a work of art meets a speed demon. The design is just timeless, and when that engine roars, you know you're in for a wild ride.

@Wilder You were the inspiration for me buying a set of OEM rails and roof box for my T, because one day soon I will be road tripping like you!

It took me a few years of living in PV to get the lay of the land. Before I bought my first Porsche I consulted with a security expert. I don't take dumb risks but I also refuse to live in fear. There are bad apples in every country and so far it's been nothing but a great experience owning and driving these cars in Mexico. Super uncommon. Driving a 911 with a roof top tent through Baja has been akin to driving a Bugatti in the US.

I took the pic on the 26th so one day after. I didn't howl, but got to witness one of the most beautiful moons I've ever seen. Orange and huge with beautiful clouds. Spectacles of nature that only last for a few minutes.

I'm happy to hear it! There's nothing like being out on the road on these cars. It's the proper way to enjoy them.
