Trading my 997.1 for a F California

Not a lot of forum chat about the merits of the F Cali. - anyone gone this route ? - loved my P car but after 5 years it's time to look around. - hankering for that F scream and ultra quick 7 speed transmission - I get it next week

Interesting, but the cars are in completely different leagues. Before a California, one could move to a GT2RS (maybe), Gallardo or of course a 991 turbo. Enjoy, I'm sure it will be a nice car.

When I think about making that move to a Ferrari I just cannot get over how bullet proof my Porsche is compared to a Ferrari. Every car that is up for sale seems to have 10-15 worth of recent service and they are not old cars, I don't think I have spent that on the 20 or so Porsche's I have owned over the last 25 years combined.

I've had that thought before-then I see how much that check would be and I come back to reality-that new turbo cali is a great car-looks like it would be 200k and your car! best of luck to ya....getting a red one?
