FYI: 996TT weight went officially
up from 1540 to 1590 Kgs in the middle of its
career; due to options that became
standard (such as Bose sound system) and improved
crash safety in the front..

I have to admit...

Some days I love it and some days I don't. I dont understand why all the back and forth. I have a feeling that as I get older the more I appreciate a classic look. Maybe some days I feel younger and some days I don't. Either way, its a hell of a car and is also a good value considering the massive performance. I wish you the best and hope you enjoy it in good health. No offense my man! What color did you order? Any options? Get the thicker steering wheel.

btw - the GT3 is absolutely my favorite car of all time. I would take it over a 430. Im all about purity. NA, 2WD, alcantara interior, lightweight. I dream about that ****.
