Well it is truly with a heavy hart that I say good by to the 997 world. I actually traded my car in last night and had a really hard time doing it. She was my first Porsche and was fantastic, but alas I made the mistake of going to the PECLA center and driving a GT4 and fell in lust with the newer, sportier wickedly sounding GT4.

So with that I no longer have to worry about IMS, Bore scoring, D-chunking blah blah blah....NOW I get to worry about losing 3rd. gear!!!! why oh why do we love these cars so?

When I have more room and more money I will probably be back again when I can convince the wife that every man truly needs more than one Pcar!

 

Life goes on and once you get inside a "better" Porsche, especially a GT4, decision is quickly made - fully understandable. Good luck!

 

Congrats. The gt4 is a helluva car.

 

From one great ride to another in the same family...congrats!! Share some pics when you get the new ride.

 

I was also in your shoes. Bought a 2007 Porsche Cayman s new and never gave me the slightest bit of trouble but saw a slightly used 2016 911 black edition and it let me let go of the cayman. The tech in these cars are unbelievablele. Only put 150 miles on it before I had to store it for the long winter ahead. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to All.

 

Sorry for the bad pics but here she is, almost just looks like a mini me to my 997

 

Here ya go....saving others the trouble of unzipping and figuring out the extensionless file




Very nice race car though!!!

 

Thank you!

 

Heres a couple more, no idea why they are not right side up

 

Congrats! looks great

 

Great car. Congratulations.

 

Very nice, congrats!

I have my first child on the way so I need a back seat.

 

No offense to anyone but is spelling optional on this forum.

 

If you don't mind sharing, were you ale to buy it for under the original MSRP? I see many GT4s advertised for over $100K and some in the mid $120Ks.

 

Pmoritt -- thought the same thing - funny.
