Charlie's 2008 Porsche 997 turbo

I'll just leave this here.

Problem is these new BMWs don't do anything for me Shawn. They have become too big and bloated in my opinion... the 911 still has maintained it's classic shape and is still a "driver's car" compared to today's BMW variants. Sad to say but this is how I feel. I won't get rid of my E46 BMW ///M as I still feel a solid connection to the road with this car. I still have that "driver's experience" whenever driving it.



Edit: sold my ZHP in September2018

They are become boats.

They are become boats.

Everyone, as you well know Shawn, have their preferences and that is okay. For me I wanted a pure driver's car and for me that is what I now own, hence this project thread

I now have my dream car and couldn't be happier. I would like to think I have a good collection going in my garage

Did you consider a Cayman?

Problem is these new BMWs don't do anything for me Shawn. They have become too big and bloated in my opinion... the 911 still has maintained it's same exact shape as 50 years ago and is still a "Beetle" compared to today's BMW variants. Sad to say but this is how I feel. I won't get rid of my E46 BMWs as I still feel a solid connection with each of my cars. I still have that "driver's experience" when driving them.

Fixed...

Seriously though, the car looks great. Porsche has never been my cup of tea, but I will always respect the Turbo, and you have an amazing one! Charlie you will soon learn that tuning a turbo vehicle is a HUGE gain... The tune on our X5///M turned it into an absolute animal...

Good luck and have fun with it!

Thanks Daniel! I will post interior pics over the upcoming weekend....promise! You will get to see this in person when I come up with Botond

Daniel and I are in Toronto - well, I just moved from Ottawa to Toronto last month so I don't think we'd make it to Ottawa to see you guys

Look forward to the interior pics...

Rob, you know I will have a lot of fun with my new Porsche... but then I have a lot of fun with my ///M as well It's nice to have both of these cars in my garage to accompany my favorite daily driver!
