Now you can add this new baby to the fleet and get Tanner back out again!

very nice and the right color too. like the wheels, the front looks good but cant decide if i like the version 1 or 2 better.

like the rear treatment as well but i just cant get with the new rear wing. i have looked at it from all angles and it just doesnt look integrated. im sure its more functional but i like the 997.1 wing much better.

other than that 1 booboo, its beautiful and the wing wouldnt stop me from owning one though i might look into replacing that wing

ROFL.... I honestly have no idea why we're goofy like that. I remember after the thrill of driving her and getting the video done we were just pulling into work and Dan and I looked at each other and then grabbed some sharks and went to work:P

It's always nice to have a little fun The exhaust sounds amazing! I really like it!

I've got a question, how is the Second Gen GT3 compared to the First Gen? In terms of handling, performance, acceleration...

Yes we try to:P Glad you like the sound...

The .2 "feels" a bit more compliant and less "reactive" to the various roads/surfaces so maybe "softer" in that sense... Acceleration feels close to the 7GT3 but a hair quicker in the mid-range. Compared to our RS however... it feels slow because:

Awesome car! I was drooling on one at the dealer on Monday. It's amazing how great all the details look in person.

I love how the center pieces by the navi screens are black for the 997.2's. I just sent my 997.1 to the shop to have my trims painted black. Will post pics once I get the car back.

Thanks and you're right they did a sweet job on this one I'm torn between the .1 and .2 since they both look so good... I think the .1 actually looks a bit more aggressive.

That is a nice touch indeed. Used to be a cost-option to do that didn't it?

Great write-up, Alex! I'm with you on the wire mesh inserts, black would look better than silver IMHO. A relatively easy fix though I suppose.

I'm starting to really like the center lock wheels as well. It's nice to see them as an option for the MY10 Turbos too and at only ~$3200, they are a very reasonable upgrade.
