Pictures of my new 997S
Now that I have her (997S) for little over a week now, what do I think about her? What A Car!!! 
Below is my initial impression (this is a newbee point of view, my first Porsche):
Opinion are drawn from comparing to cars that I have driven in the past: 330Ci (with Sport Suspension) which is now my daily driver. Z4 3.0 (with Sport Suspension), M3 E36.
Appearance:
She is stunningly beautiful and just absolutely breathe taking. Her hip…Oooo that bodacious hip, the line, the curve around the waist is outright perfection. Boy, she is so hot; she makes me want to do things to her that I have never done with anyone else.
Interior of the car is without doubt the best 911 ever. With full leather, the interior of the car finally look the part with the 100K price tag. 
Handling:
Again What a Car!! I thought BMW was the Ultimate Driving Machine, but now I know I was just ignorant. It makes my 330Ci steering feel numb and slow, like a Toyota Camery. Corner taking with this car is night and day comparing with my 330Ci. The speed this baby can carry and amount of lateral G generated is just a monster.
Acceleration:
Still in break in period. So, I can’t really test it out yet.

Thank you very nice. Mine may end up being almost exactly the same. I have seal on the order now and like it but the Atlas seems to be a little more rare and it is very nice looking.

Beautiful car, but it makes me nervous to see all those garden implements hanging mere feet from the car. I hope you don't have any kids/dogs. 
Congrats!

Great car. It's all about perspective. I also migrated from an E46 3 series BMW and although I had the sport suspension and 18 inch wheels and a coupe, my car was in no way comparable to this beast.
Then I realize that I'm a bit foolish to compare a car that costs approx 2.5x as much as another. It will be impossible to drive anything else and be happy! (?f430)
