Couple photos of the Turbo S on a day out

Took these photos yesterday, hope you enjoy it! Man I still love this car. Pity the sun was not out to show what an awesome colour this is.

Sorry I'm a bit late, but this is for you Dana

Country side roads a bit narrow, but are nice and open


I just love toll gates...


Front shot!


Bye bye!

Fantastic Mike. I've spent the last day or two in mine......and even after a 10 yr lapse, you're correct, all the love is still there. Brings back all the nostalgia and good memories of days gone by. Maybe someone can photoshop yours with mine?? Keep the pics coming!

Kuzi....where are the photos from the last 2 days!? I agree, the car is so very different from the 996, almost worlds apart. The sound the door makes when it closes, the engine still had that flat-6 courseness, the pedals rize from the floor instead of vice versa on the new cars etc. The 993 feels like a tank in comparison with my 997(in a good way).

Wow, she's a real stunner. Are the yellow calipers and the side air intake special for the Turbo S? From what I know the normal Turbo had red calipers and no air intake on the sides.
Does it have a 425 hp or 450 hp?

I think it actually has 424 hp and the side inlets are non-functional. They must be a holdover from the 993RSR. At least that's what a 993TTS owner told me. He took his apart to check things out. The inlets in the back of the rear wing are functional however.
