Default Some pics of my 997 S Cab

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to share some pics of my S cab. Shot them on Sunday. I am having thoughts about selling it and getting something a bit bigger and comfortable. The last car I really loved was my E64 650i (I know, I know a totally different animal). Please convince me otherwise.

Anyways, here are some pics from my sales ad. Enjoy.

Keep it. I sold my 335i MSport to get back in a P car. Before that a Cayman.The BMW was fast, fun and comfortable. Also a maintenance hog. The fellow bought my 911 also ditched his prior BMW when got the 911. I've had 3 BMW and now 7 Porsche. Just my take. Very nice car and love the interior by the way. Keep,it!

Had a unique 6MT E93 335i 3 years ago. I definitely regret selling that one. It wasn't for sale. One day as I was pulling out of my parking garage in NYC, and a fellow approached me and asked me how much I want for it. I highballed him thinking he wouldn't accept. He accepted and the very next day showed up to the bank with payment. I could not believe how quickly it happened and short-lived it was. At the end of the day, everything is always for sale. I've had 4 BMW's and 2 Porsche.

Something is telling me though to hold onto this one, that given that the new 991.2's are all turbo, that this may be worth something in the near future. But who knows. I'm all confused.

that is an incredible color combo...not sure if rare or not but I would not sell that car if it was mine - you might not ever be able to get one like it if you wanted to go back to a Porsche

Don't sell it! What seats are those? I also have a C2S cab with cocoa but my seats seem more "firm". Mine are not the sport seats as far as I am aware. Maybe you have comfort seats or something? See pic of my seats below.

I have the full leather option, so I think that what you're seeing in the seats.

That is simply gorgeous. I love the cocoa leather and brown top on the silver body -- so much classier looking than the standard black interior and top.

I also have full leather Cocoa so it's not that. Maybe a difference between US and Europe spec? Strange - I have not seen that type of seats / leather before.

I also love the combo. I have a white cab with cocoa full leather and also the cocoa brown top
