Picked Up My first 911 This Past Monday....Couple Pics

Drove down to VA to pick this car up from a gentleman who had it listed on here. Car is outstanding. Needs a clutch slave but otherwise it's perfect inside and out.

Car is a 2007 Turbo
PCCB
Chrono
Manual
Adaptive Seats

Mods
GIAC Tune
AWE Exhaust
AWE Intercoolers
Bilstein PSS10's
H&R Sways
HRE P40's
Porsche Baby Seat

Other than a heavy clutch pedal for the moment the car is the bee's knees.

Future mods will include a Kenwood Head Unit (next week)
Clutch Fix (the following week)
Cobb Tune by Sean Ivey (sometime this summer)

Other than that....car is perfect. My wife and I have been driving it non stop since monday with nothing but smiles. Even the kiddo loves it.

Well optioned and solid aftermarket mods for your first 911. For the slave you have a few options out there. If you haven't looked at the BBi solution, definitely look into it. There is a good review by roncooper.

Thank you for the suggestion.

I've looked into it and i think because my wife will be driving the car as often or more than i will we're going with a stock 997 slave. the first one on this car lasted over 30k miles....as long as we get a few years out of it's not the end of the world to keep the clutch nice and smooth.

No problem my friend and your reasoning for the stock setup is definitely a solid one.

My wife drives my car with bbi slave frequently with zero issues. I don't even have the gt3 clutch spring which might even lighten it a bit. I wouldn't let that put you off.

Congrats on the car!

Now you've got me thinking more. I read this post to my wife yesterday as well as the BBI thread altogether. I told her it's completely up to her. Odds are the BBI is the best route but considering the circumstances i told her that she can make the decision.

The girl drives a manual like a beast...i'm inclined to think she'll go for the more motorsports oriented part. We'll see
