Default Looking for a 997 C4S ??

I'm looking for a C4S in white or GT silver. Interior color or options don't much matter. Any sightings?

Thanks

Thanks[/ try try the porsche web site...clink on dealers and you can check inventory at each dealership, including model. color, options and msrp...i am sure you can find your `car....btw, gt silver would be amazing in a c4s...i have only seen it white and black in person...both very nice, but i would go for gt silver!!!!

C4s is not yet at the dealers. However, they should be here within 2 weeks from now.

I just bought my 06 C4S Cab. I get to drive her off the lot on Monday. Mine is Black / Sand. I'll post pics on Monday.

I don't think this will be an option anymore, not enough difference between the CS and C4S.

Maybe a non turbo with a turbo body which would not be the C4s one?
But somehow I think Porsche should keep the turbo body exclusively to the turbo.

Actually I really hope they do

I think once the TT is out, the C4S will get a minor makeover. Love that ***.

After doing my homework which included a PM here and there, I finished my search yesterday here in NC. Drove a new C4S that the dealer just got in. It looks great and feels lighter than the 996 C4S in all aspects.

I have found my M3 replacement. For those of you who have one on order count your blessings.

That's good news - thanks for posting!

I have a C4s Cabriolet on order, but I haven't been able to drive one yet. I have read that it feels much better than the 996 version thanks to the better front end mechanicals and variable steering, but I can't wait to see first hand. Thanks for the confirmation!

Feel free to PM me with more impressions of your drive, as I'd love to get more info from you. (especially if you drove a C2s for comparison purposes).

I'd love to see mo' pics of any 997 4s and/or 4S's, coupes or cabs.
Received this email today .......
"Your car is on the Queen Ace which is due into Brunswick, GA on 11/7. We should be processing these cars on 11/8. They will be released to the trucking company the day we process. Once it is processed and released, I can work on getting an ETA from the trucking company."

Car is in Greensboro at Foreign Cars Italia. Great dealership. They are the largest Porsche dealer in NC. Nice plus to be able to look at what amounts to about 20+ Ferraris as well.
