New GTS

Hi.
I have really been enjoying my new (3 months now) Panamera Turbo, but I still missed a sports car...and the opportunity to get one came up...a 2011 white/black Carrera GTS coupe, manual transmission. I LOVE this car...it has a carbon shifter, door sills, and dash trim. It has the heated/ventilated seats, sports chrono, multifunction wheel, Bose, XM and sports suspension/LSD. What a fun car...totally different experience than a Panamera, and I love both equally.

thanks...I am a lucky guy...and the Cayenne Turbo (mostly the wife's DD)...3 of Porsche's best (for us)...fast, fun, so different.
A few weeks back, my dad came to visit, and I handed him the key to the Cayenne Turbo and I took the Panamera turbo and we found some twisties and had some fun...early in the morning (about 6 am) and then switched cars...a little follow the leader...he was grinning ear to ear...his next visit will be even more fun with the 911.

Thanks, everyone!
If you think my current garage is clean, I will post pictures when I am done this week with the next phase of garage upgrades...this is a photo of my friend's garage (he has awesome cars) and I am copying his granite floor...I absolutely fell in love with it...work starts this morning!

Now that's just not right...how impressive is that!?!?

GTS looks great! I guess the question is: which brings bigger smiles to your face: GTS or PTT???

I actually drove both yesterday for different reasons...GTS is new, so that was fun, and a stick...so more involving, but PTT is soooo fast and direct, like a freight train! Great fun on Sunset Blvd here in LA...especially on a Sunday with minimal traffic.

Congrats on a beautiful car !!

i love the GTS.. but why didn't u get the turbo ?

ur stable shows Panarama Turbo, Cayenne Turbo, and Carrera non-turbo ?

BTW, the granite flooring.. as beautiful as it is.. is for high-end cars or museum piece, IMHO.
i personally like the checkered floor for sports cars..

ur friend has a gorgeous collection of cars !
