Default Finally Took Some Pics

2011 Turbo S Cabriolet in Meteor Grey, Two-Tone Interior, some Alcantara, and a ton of Carbon. The rims are HRE's. No other mods. BTW, this car is stupid fast compared to my old 09' Turbo Cab.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments. Doc GTO my 2009 TT was a 6-speed. I have never owned a Porsche Tiptronic. My 07' Cayman S is a 6-speed.

Beautiful car... Love the color... Although I'm not a fan of black wheels those look nice with the PCCB's.

Take care of that leather... Swiss Wax makes an awesome leather care kit (cleaner, conditioner, sealant.). Pricey but worth it.. Especially for a cab..

Congrats! That is an amazing car!

Since we are on the same lines color wise, here is another idea for you - not the GT3 smile, that is personal preference, but the black crest...



And for detail

I like that...adds to the tough look. Where did you get it?

ebay. Sellers name is interestedparty I believe.
No affiliation, just a happy customer. Make sure you specify its for a 997, as it needs to be flat in the back, the first one I got was curved and it wouldnt sit right. But the seller gladly exchanged it.

I dont know if you are aware, but there is a carbon version out there as well, through macarbon HERE. Not cheap, and not my thing to be honest, I prefer the engraved look of the original crest painted black.

Sorry that link is dead.
Here is the item, but I cant find it on their site. Apparently it is a custom order item. If you are interested drop them an email. If I recall it was in the $300 range?

Treat the light leather now or you will suffer later. Belt marks, etc...tough to get out.

Lexol conditioner, probably a few times in the first month, buff dry, put it on with your hands. Then let it sit a couple days if you can. You'll be glad you did this later.

Nice one - congrats and drive safe.
