Talking Did the unthinkable...

...and bought a Red/Black 997S to make our garage an "All Porsche Garage"!!!!!! Went to the dealer looking to MAYBE order a 997S Cab. (or locate one), but saw this sweet nicely optioned coupe on the floor!! About 2 hours later we gave them the keys for the 05 E55AMG and drove away in the 997S!! Big thanks to Joe F. at Braman Porsche!! He pushed very hard to get the deal we wanted and finally gained us as Braman customers!! Dont' have the sticker in front of me (was 92K I believe), but you can see most of the options from the photos . Now its my turn to make it better

Beautiful. What made you decide you liked the 997S over the E55?

Just didn't like the E55 nemore, and decided since we had the Cayenne there was no use in having another 4 door... It was either the 997S or an M3, you can see what we decided

Thumbs up Let the mods begin

I love the red, I actually gave red some serious thought. I can't believe that you haven't lowered that thing yet. You've had some free time today haven't you? How cool, Gina and I have the same car. By the way, my sources tell me that if you "Snoop Dogg that thing out" your wicked step-mother will kill you!

HAHA, the sales guy was asking me what I planned to do to it (he is a friend and knows I work for FVD) and my pops got pissed at us and said I had to wait a bit . It will come tho, lowering is deff. on the horizon. Exhaust will go on this week for sure

Not sure why, but GR seems to suit the 997 better than it did the 996.

That car is fine, especially all the red stuff on the interior.
