Good to see you guys using the cars!!!

5 weeks and I have just over 5000KMs on my 2013 C4S. 3 track days, and a few more planned for this season.

So far so good, and no issues to report.

I'm in for a get together anytime, schedule permitting, etc. Let's get it going.

But it was by far the best DD, other than hauling people around part. I imagine the 991S to be that much better.
Enjoy and thanks for the post.

I have 61k miles on my 06 997S - with minor issues here and there...

Do you have links handy to problems seen with recent 991's? Its nothing serious like RMS issues with the 996's and some 997s'?

Almost 6 months, 10,000 miles (last week) and 10 track days so far. Running strong -with very minimal break in

- since the first day.

Damn! He is ahead of me. 14 months and 20,000 miles. I think 8 or 9 tracks days and 1 snowcross. Best DD every. I would have more miles but I can only fit one kids in comfortably. When I am taking both, I have to drive the kiddie car.

Just hit 12k on the odometer, and my second inspection. My C2S has been almost flawless. Just a single repair day for a failed fuel sensor. No breakdowns, just a ton of compliments for a great color and interior. And yes, the most fun is running it at plus 4k revs!

Glad to see it's being driven the way it should be.
I'm debating on using mine as a DD because I'm afraid of upsetting my customers by driving up in one. Not sure if anyone else has that concern at all.

5000 km in 3 mths on my NTM C2S cab, friends keep asking when I'm putting it away for the winter.Simple response, I can't imagine walking past it for 4 mths and not driving it. So I'm off to get winter tires and rims

They will either realize your are good at what you do, or they will be jealous. No sense worrying about the latter, you will never change the way they think.
