Precision Porsche's new project car

Just wanted to share some pics of the new shop car. After selling my 996TT, I "thought" I wanted to get into a more exotic sports car (r8/gallardo) but after looking at the prices and maintenance and reliability compared to a 997TT, I knew that the 997 would fit my needs better. Ideally, I was looking for a clean, low mileage 997tt cab but I ran across an 07, GT silver coupe with 6k miles and had to jump on the oppurtunity.

Specs are:

Heated Front Seats; Ceramic Composite Brakes- PCCB; Sport Chrono Package Turbo; Remote CD Changer (6 Disc); Black mats with Porsche lettering; Adaptive Sport Seats; Porsche Crest in Headrest; Extended Navigation Module; Axle-differential lock rear; Foot rest aluminum; 3-spoke steering wheel multifunction leather; Rear center console leather; Leather sun visors and lighted mirror; Sport seat backs painted; Headlight cleaner Cvr Ext. Clr; Standard rocker panels painted; Door entry grds Stl steel Illu; Stitching F/R seats Dev. color; Dashboard stitching Dev. color; Door stitching in Dev. color; Door handle stitching Dev. color; Dev. stitching side center console; Rear side panel Dev. stitching; All excl. opt. stitch Dev. color; Painted model desig. rear lid; and Exterior package painted.

Here are some pics









Mods to start when the car gets home

And here is one pic of the old 996tt precision car

Very nice! Love the options. Your 996 project was modded perfectly, one of the nicest 996 turbos I'd seen. Looking forward to see what you have in store for this one.

Here are just two pics of the car being delivered on friday as promised by JPL. The car was in good company (f430, RR and two custom golf carts ). Mark the driver was very pleasant and professional. This is the third time I've transported a car across country and the first two times (enclosed and open), there was damage to the car. My car arrived as mint as when they picked it up. JP Logistics pulled through and they will be my 'go-to' from now on. Thanks George and team (Emily, Chris and Mark)!

Nick,

How've you been bud?

The plan is to outfit the car with all Precision parts (front lip, skirts, rear lip/wing, roof spoiler, etc). For wheels, I'm going with a set of Modulare's from my buddy (Peter @ Wheelsexperts). Tune/exhaust/drop - TBD
