Nice Sled! I've enjoyed mine for almost eight years now. Nothing on the horizon that would make me give it up.

Thanks for the compliment! Those wheels were on my car when I bought it a few months ago. I really like the wheels too. I think the 997tt wheels give the car a more aggressive look.

I'm ashamed to say that I don't have many pictures of my turbo yet. When I get a few I'll be sure to post em. I'll be happy to email you a few pics I have if you'd like to PM me your email address I'll fire em off to you.

Buy an extended warranty if you don't have one. Mine has paid for itself the first year and I don't abuse the car.

I've never owned a turbo car before...so I certainly welcome the feeling of sudden power after 3500rpm. P-car is more raw...simply put, it's build for performance. What it lacks is interior design (they obviously fixed it with the 997), but I find the interior in the P-cars a level below BMW/Benz. Ofcourse, I'm just stating the obvious. Rear seats are unseatable. trunk space is lacking... the car is not very pratical at all.

but then again, if I wanted a pratical car, I wouldn't be driving this.

Bottomline, the porsche is super fun to drive. but I wouldn't use it for a daily driver. I have my other BMW for that.
