Talking Now Driving .... Atlas Grey 997 GT3

It finally arrived on Thursday evening!!

Atlas Grey, black leather interior, red seat belts + red stitching on the steering wheel, carbon package, central console in leather.

Already drove it 850 km in less than two days! A few first impressions:

- what a sound!!!!!!!!!!
- engine was rough at first but is getting smoother as I go
- phenomenal grip (it came with Pirellis)
- hard to keep a conversation when that throttle valve opens at 4,000 rpm!
- very easy to cruise around in, but, man, does it show its teeth as soon as you press that pedal!!!
- PASM in normal mode was jarring for the first 150 to 200 km, but is noticeably smoother as I go. Or maybe I am just getting used to it!
- terrific feedback from the road, but still very easy to forget how fast it goes, until you look down at the speedometer.

It's everything I was hoping for and I am still discovering it.

WOW!!!!!

(was trying to upload pics but can't - they are on Rennlist)

Cannot upload here and most picture posting sites are banned from the UAE, so I cannot post there either.
