Took the toy to the playground (pics)

The wife is away visiting family. So what does a Pnut do?... runs for his toy and heads for the Smokies!!! Took off early this morning for Tellico Plains,TN and onto the Cherohala and then the Dragon. Covered approx 220 staggeringly beautiful miles. The weather could not be better (72-76F) and the fall colors are still there. I'm going to be brief as I'm wiped out and tired. The 991S is hands down the finest 911 I have owned! It lived up to everything I'd want from a sports car. Its a great cruiser and a phenomenal performer on the twisties. I'm in love with PDCC as it sucked up some really poor road surfaces and noticeably kept the car level to provide incredible control on severely testing twisties. I'm rambling.... I'm tired... I'll write more tomorrow when I get back home. Until then some pics. Just so pleased with the car!!!!!

I don't think any color could look better with the Fall Colors as a Backdrop. Beautiful Photos of a "Beautiful" Car. The Drive must have been Amazing too.

Nice pics...

Regarding wife being gone on family visit, I don't think that really matters in your case...you'd head out with your shiny toy to the playground any way

Love all the pics, especially since mine will look almost exactly the same. Keep them coming.

Beautiful 991! I'm about to take my 997 C2S to the NC mountains soon, too. Is your car manual or PDK?

Beautiful. Nice work.

You are lucky to have such an amazing playground / backdrop so close to you.

Wow, the car just looks fantastic out there on the mountain roads! Must have been an amazing day. I remember taking my 997 thru the mountains in Colorado, it was just spectacular. The scenery and the sound and the twisty roads are elements that just belong together!

Great looking car! Probably a dumb question, but does the Sport PASM make the car lower even when parked?

You are so right... the drive was intoxicatingly good. The sounds, the popping, corners, ahhhh just lovely. Makes one feel so privileged. I'm about to get on to the road again....

I'm not sure but may well do. The car looks low enough in general. I'd always get SPASM.

I'm sure it will. The Ozarks are going to be spectacular. Don't forget to share pics with us

It would've been almost a perfect day except the girlfriend was not with you on this trip. PERFECT TIME TO TRY THE "SPASM" WITH HER. Lol
