Since 2020. I can’t imagine wanting another car. It’s perfect.

Default New to the club...

Recently purchased 2006 C2. I've been a BMW M owner for 30+ years and decided it was time to try something different. Really enjoying the car and learning more about it. This forum has been a terrific resource.

Interesting, I wonder how common that transition actually is. I was also into BMW's until around 4 years ago when I purchased my first Porsche DD, a 2016 Macan S. I have also owned a bunch of M-Cars...from Z3M Coupe all the way to M5. I now have the Macan and the 911 Targa a few posts above yours. The engine in the rear of my Targa has taken some adjusting to, the feel and body movement is very different from any BMW I have driven. It's been a lot of fun finding the limit though. Now a year on from 911 ownership, from the 30+ cars I've owned if I could only have a 2 garage, it would include a 997 and a BMW Z3M Coupe. For my taste, analogue naturally aspirated cars bring more smiles per miles than anything else on the road. However, it should go without saying...to each their own. Congratulations on the new 911!

Yes, I know what you mean. I plan on driving all day today. Mine came out of storage 2 weeks ago and have sat due to cold and crummy weather. Finally a warm dry weekend!
