Would folks here change the off road tyres to a road tyre if they knew the car would never go off road?
Yes, and at the same time change the badge from 'Dakar' to 'Turbo S'.

I think these would look better lowered and without the rear spoiler and plastic wheel arch extensions.
What would be the point of that? It wouldn't be a Dakar then!

Elite Detailer working on one.

First time i've seen one....looks stunning and love the sound it makes. Definitely doesn't sound like a GTS!

lovey car...
as you say, it looks very different in the flesh, more presence and imposing
you could not have a more different sounding 911

Customary early Christmas morning drive completed.

It's special. Much more than a raised GTS! Handling and steering are superb, sound is fantastic and great to look at. Only downside is tyre noise is loud on the motorway.























And you can park it anywhere!













Merry Christmas all!

Thanks, wanted PTS but wasnt available for this year. Silver does suit it though!

What running procedure have people been using?

Also how rough are people been on them? I've been pushing it a fair bit on off road tracks but a little unsure on what kind of speeds i can do over very rough terrain before it starts hitting the underside?! bounce Dont want to break it in first few weeks of having!

Anybody have a field in the Midlands they'd like me to tear up?? lol

To my eyes, the Dakar only looks credible when dirty.

Not necessarily that muddy - but with a purposeful patina and haze of use - with lots of dead flies on the leading edges for good measure.

Detail cleaned and perfect just doesn’t suit it.
