My New 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo 6 Speed and GT3

It all started in 2010 when I bought a 2007 911 Carrera S. Ever since then, I've been addicted to 911's.

Here is the newest addition to my garage. 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo - 6 Speed. I looked at 911 Turbo 6 speeds for a while, and finally found this one at a Porsche dealer in Colorado. I started out looking for 07-11 6 speed Turbos with Limited slip diff, in red, white, or black. White was my first choice, because I wanted to match the GT3. Then I found this one and was glad that it is a 997.2 with updated audio, nav, etc. It also had a lot of interior carbon fiber options that I think set it apart from some of the others I found. It had everything that I would have chosen if ordering from Porsche myself.

The GT3 is such an exciting car and PDK is amazing for the track, but I missed driving the 6 speed around town for weekend drives. The Turbo can do anything and has so much power. It has been a blast. This car does it all. Now I've got one for the track, and one for the street. I think I'll be keeping these 2 forever.

Fantastic example! I'm partial to white 997 Turbos and yours looks awesome. Post the side by side pics with your GT3. That's a nice garage setup.

Wow, for what I can see that is exactly how I would have ordered as well. Love the red stitching and gauges... You certainly have a dream garage!

You will not see many of those in your life with those wheels, interior upgrades, manual (for that year), but you already know that.

How long did it take to find it? Quite the find! Enjoy it in good health. LOVE mine... though it's PDK.
