Wait a minute. I thought you were going to store it in my garage.

Yeah, right; you'd probably want to see if you could cross Kansas in a blizzard with AWD..

More Porsche photos please. Less taxi cabs.

Here's mine......image.jpg

Nice. Choosing between the 3 different silver is tough :)

Beautiful; I love the duck tail! Did you special order it? It is nice to see red calipers..

Spend some real time around GT Silver Metallic and you will have your answer. As we subscribe to the bright car in a subtle color is best theory, all 3 of ours are silver(yes, we get crap about it). Arctic pops when it is freshly washed but GT is more refined/has more character and still looks good even with a bit of dirt. Clearly the best color I have ever owned as I am not a bit tired of it after 2+ years.

Well yeah but the new silver are also different from the past silver. Well GT is the same (and looks great). I have not seen a Rhodium yet but will soon. Agate would still be my favorite I think. Arctic does not exist anymore.

Purchased it at the end of May last year from a dealer in Durham NC. I actually tracked it down by searching on the net. I was open to any of the silver/grey colors. I probably would have considered a red or carrera white one too if the price was right. This one was at a dealer near Albany NY and had nearly all the options I wanted. I drove the 2&4S manual and PDK variants and realized that I liked the lighter weight feel of the 2wd car. Just so happens finding this GTS in Rhodium silver with PDK checked virtually all the boxes.

Sonder wunschen means it will exist if you are willing to pay for it :)

It's beautiful, enjoy it!

Good morning Gents- It's been a while. I've still been putzing around on that rusty Euro '75, but I'm a few days away from putting the motor back in.

I started with this:

Then did this:

And some of this:












And now I'm about here:












I got the car mostly wired yesterday and today will start tackling the crankfire crap. Have a great day guys!

Sean to the rescue. It is pretty amazing how stiff the frames are eh?

It was pretty amazing that this car was still relatively square... Pretty much every structural piece of metal was 80% rotted out. I believe the roll cage is the only thing that kept the chassis together.

Really want a green 911..... with the RS front and a duck tail back.

Yikes! How did it drive? Must have had the shakes all over the place.

An Irish Green 71T ended on BaT today - $70,500 and didn't sell...

The 991.2 C2 is fantastic. On the "fun" factor it was way up there. The C2S felt "the same" to me even though it has 50 more hp. The low RPM high torque of the new twin turbo flat six is awesome. The C4S felt more "secure" and you can feel the front pulling but the direction is just a bit heavier. All of that was on a dry road in CA. I would lean toward the 4 only because if and when I ship this back to France I would use it in the mountains in the winter as well and in this case 4WD is a complete no brainer.

Whatever you do, just be sure: (i) to get this purchased before I come out for my next visit; and (ii) don't ship it to France before my next visit.

(iii) store it at my house....

Awesome. I regret owning cars that are near impossible to work on.

Hope not, it's my retirement plan to fund new bikes. Kidding.
