Just got my 1st Porsche! 03 996 Turbo.Pics

Hey all...well i have been through some cool cars...

850HP Toyota Supra
BMW M3
2002 Viper Gts ACR ed.
2006 Vette Z06
2006 Viper SRT10 Coupe.

AND FINALLY...i traded the Viper in for the most amazing machine i have ever driven! I am in love...and i hope to be in a 997 in 2008.

Here she is right after i brought her home, and at the dealer. Got her in Dallas at Autobahn.

Congrats man. You have had some real beasts and this is the one you feel "the connection" with. To me that speaks volumes.

I feel the same way although I have not owned some of the beasts you have. I absoutely love my '03 TT more than any other car I have owned.....my '01 M3 (gone but never forgotten) is a close second.

How do you feel the turbo compares to so of the other cars you've own?

Nothing seems to compare to the Porsche. The smoothness and quite sound is so nice. It doesnt rattle u to death either. It feels very much like you are driving a luxury car until u mash the gas!

I cant complain about my 06 Z06 and 06 Viper because they are pretty badass cars for the $. The build quality is CRAP on them though. Things rattling after barely 3K miles on them..

IN the end i just didnt feel like me in them...i missed having turbos...feeling the boost kick in. I grew tired of the clunky shifting, and rattles of the other two.

They were both fast..but nothing compared to my Hayabusa and so i wanted the feel of fine craftsmanship...

The Porsche is exactly that..

Congrats! Let the modding begin.

You may want to hang on to the Tempo for those weekends the car is having mods installed.
