Talking My new 997.1 Carrera S with Aerokit

So lucky to chance upon this car. I've been chasing a GT3 996.2 for some time and just couldn't find a good example at the right price. This Carrera S is basically a 'soft' GT3 with heaps of creature comforts and all the right specs. If I had spec'd it out myself, it wouldn't have been much different. Feeling very lucky and blessed to be in a position to purchase this car!



Factory Options included:

20mm lowered suspension
19 inch turbo wheels
Short shift kit
Full Carbon backed/leather sports seats
Sportschrono
Sports exhaust
Red seat belts
...and the list goes on

After a few drives, I'll post some driving impressions. From the test drive, it basically felt like a GT3. Yes, it's a 6 speed manual too. Incredibly, it also felt much like my old 930... Happy drives ahead I think.

Talking Driven

Went and did a long drive today - first one with some real fast sections, corners, climbs etc. What an unbelievable car! Anyone contemplating a 2nd hand 997 S - just go for it. It destroys roads :-)
