Default From 991 to 970.2

Family needs and a change in priorities have necessitated that I go in a little different direction-and have recently sold my 991 911 and have purchased a CPO 2015 970.2. Initial impressions are a large but rather highly competent platform despite its weight. Truly amazing handling for a car this big. Looking forward to learning more as I am able to put on some more miles.

I have a 991.1 C2 and would like to add a 2011 base or 4 Panamera.

Interesting that in our local PCA Chapter, I am the 3rd recent 970.2 acquisition who has either moved from the 991 or have added a Panamera to their collection. The more time I spend it in, the more I appreciate the level of engineering, fit and finish and the overall competency of the vehicle. Now that the new car has been launched, there are some fantastic values on the 970 cars....

I also recently transitioned from a 911 (996 C4 cab) to a PTT as a consolidation effort to simplify my life - it is also replacing my Audi A8L W12 highway cruiser.

So far I think I'm on the right track and that the Panny will do a good job of replacing both prior vehicles.

Week Two with the Panamera. Kids say this thing "Rocks" especially when I demonstrated launch control. Miss the sound of flat six of my 991 but the big 970 hauls kids, *** and groceries exceedingly well.
