Yes agreed, in addition to your list the only other options that were a must for me, manual, SPASM mainly for the LSD and sport seats. It was very difficult to find a car with this equipment. For me the choice came down to a good deal or an exceptional car. Having sold another C2S, manual last year and immediately regretting it my expectations are the next one would be a keeper. In a year of looking I only found one similar car and that one didn’t have sport seats. I had to pay up for this car top of the current market.

Wow, just stumbled on this, didn’t receive any type of notification that someone replied; should I? Yep, it’s Meteor Grey. I love the combination but this is plasti-dip and a PITA to keep pristine. I’ll probably remove it soon. Here are some more pictures:

I took her to the “Georgia” Dragon Tail yesterday, otherwise known as the Suches Loop. Man oh man...first Porsche and first time on a mountain road like this! Now I know what the hell everyone is talking about. What a machine. I’ve always read about and watched videos over the years but to finally drive it in MY GTS. I’m in love....

Was out for a drive and had someone approach me and ask if he could photograph the car as he was just starting to dabble with automotive photography.

Ugh, look at that fitment. I think he needs 20's and should go with some ultra deep dish wheels with some seriously stretched tires j/k.

Would love to be able to have a car like that with stories and legacy tied to it for my kids. Alas, I was a cheap and rational guy and couldn't splurge until I was much more comfortable financially. On the plus side, I'm very happy with my 997.2 and hopefully it will last long enough for my kids to enjoy it... if they still like cars and want to drive in a future with Uber/Self Driving/Electric based transportation.

Red is the best colour for a 911! I miss my Guard's Red 997. But I like my current Carrara White 997 as well

Funny because I was actually looking for Carrera White and ended up with the right Guards Red car that came along. And did the above photo just change while I was replying?
