Default Twins (New 997 S Cab)

The Nursery is now full. Took Delivery of my wife's new 997 S Cab today & thought I'd post a couple of Pics. The Color doesn't show up very well with the HID lighting, bu I'll get some dayllight shots when the sun returns and the rain heads north. Basics:
* 2007 997 S Cab (Tip) Carmona Red Metalic
* Natural Brown Leather (Full)
* Heated Power Seat package
* Self Dimming Mirrors
* 19" Sport Design Wheels
* NAV for PCM
* Colored Crests, and Windstop
MODS on the way:
* K 40 Radar/Laser custom install
* Tech Art Rear Wing Type III (paint to match)
* XM Radio, Clear Bra (3M), Blue Tooth Phone connection.
* Upgraded speaker pkg of some sort

She said I could post pics, but complained that the one from the back made her azz look too Big ??? Hunnnhhh???

I said it once and I'll say it again. "What a Garage."

Just as good or better in quality. Slightly thicker in the Porsche and the tone in the Porsche is richer and "tanned" vs the fairly simple color in the Ferrari. Seaming and installation is about the same. Much more leather int the Porsche, more aluminum and CF in the F-car.

Ok, come on... Driving impressions between the two? I know many will argue it's not a fair comparison but, I'd love to hear an objective comparo.

Thanks,

MC

So far I've only been allowed to back it into the Garage ...More impressions after a few days when I get a chance to drive it. Gotta keep it under 4,200 RPM for the first 2,000 mi anyway..

Ok, so which car, the F or the P, is more intoxicating when backing into the garage at 3 MPH?

Seriously, what a pair of stable mates! I really like the Carmona Red. I think it is very rich looking! Maybe your wife will let you pull it "out" of the garage this weekend so you can wash it!

Default What an amazing Garage.

All the cars in your garage are great choices. Obviously the twins are Fraternal and not Identical! : )

From the headlights of the 2 Porsches hanging from the top of the ceiling, can't you see it from the reflection?

Great looking garage!
