got a 997 this last friday...
Got a 997 last friday. Really love it and it's more than what I was expecting. Regular carrera with (now) carrera S black wheels. Sport Chrono Plus. Really love this machine. The sport mode really wakes this little beast. Mods will have to wait a little until I recover but it is all worth it. A natural evolution. Still have the 996 so life couldn't be better but a guy is looking a the 996 (for the third time) today...
here's the beast:

Nice score on the 997. GL with the potential buyer...3rd time should be the charm.

I buy the cars to enjoy them and drive them... If I wanted a garage queen, I will buy and empty body with 4 wheels and admire it all day long! LOL!

You mean there are 996 Porsches with original, non upgraded engines?
