Absolutely beautiful New Zealand photography.
How challenging is it to own such a street weapon in a nation with 100km/h speed limits?
I rented a 650 Vstrom motorcycle on the South island and was wildly over the speed limits when I failed to monitor my habits. I think I would get my license pulled in the first 24 hours with that car.

A radar detector + Waze has meant that I’ve only ever had one minor speeding ticket in the 8 years I’ve owned it

In the SI now, on a road trip, hooning around until I leave for Japan. Haven’t seen a cop in a few days!

Enjoying NZ spring, and the lack of tourists. Walked 26kms of one of our most popular national parks yesterday, and passed maybe 50 people at most. The lack of tourists is hard on the local economy but it’s a blessing for locals.

New to the forums and first P car! 2009 997tt, brown macadamia metallic, two tone leather interior, manual, 46k km, german version (I’m American but live in Germany). Last weekend was driving around the Eifel region (south of Cologne) and autobahn (A1), top speed (legally) last weekend was 250 km/h (155 mph). Fully stock car and drives like a dream Paid a visit to the Nürburgring, just to view, i think this picture does good service to the beauty of the track on a nice fall day




Green, yellow and red hell.

Some shots from a rally two weekends ago while the weather was still nice up here in the NE.


This is definitely my favorite angle on these cars

Beautiful. I like the carbon fiber. Is yours Basalt Black? Wonder how the GT2 carbon fiber hood and mirrors would look.

Thanks. I believe it is yes. The Carbon fiber Hood is on my list of things to do as well as side skirts 😃.

My turbo is Basalt Black. The carbon fiber on your car looks great in the pictures. And I bet the carbon fiber hood would just set it off. Expensive, but oh man.

Here’s a video for something different - 997 running up a mountain road in NZ. Apologies for wind noise, GoPro really need an external mic...
