2013 Turbo S

Hello
Yesterday I picked up my first Porsche
GT Silver 2013 (my sep 12) Turbo S.

back in September I placed an order for a 991 Carrera S, then I saw this beauty sitting in the showroom, they offered me an offer I couldn't resist

Thank you

Beautiful photos of an awesome color, Yousef!

The chrono only works for timing, it does not operate as a clock. To activate it, use the lower-left control stalk to go to the "Chrono" menu. From there you can start/stop/reset. You'll also see a special racetrack mode in the nav.

It looks like your steering wheel is black in a red interior from the photos... was it ordered that way?

'Car' Mag for Jan say's 991 turbo S has 580 HP. Correct? I thought there were going to be some outside changes, but looks much like my
silver 2007 except for exhaust tips. and great looking rims. I like the looks of the silver spoiler lip in the front rather than black, but I would
hate to see the painted lip after a scrape going up a driveway. And too, probably would have to paint the two side and rear sections as well.
Not sure on the 2013 photo if under sides are painted.

That looks more like grey then silver. I usually do not like silver and think it is plain and dull, but this one looks great for some reason.

Congrats.

John, this is a 997.2 Turbo S. The 991 has not even been announced yet.
