PCCB's were never an option as mentioned above, but some 991 owners are reporting that they have managed on stock pads with just a change of brake fluid, I find this hard to believe, but then again this is my first Porsche.

I don't want to make too many alterations to the car due to warranty reasons, and the fact that I will probably runt the car for 12-24 months (depending on what happens with the GT4 allocations). But I still want to be able to run 6-8 track days / season without too many problems.

Has anyone had any geo work done, especially camber? How much of a change will the Cayman allow?

It's a case of ringing OPC's and seeing what stock they have, I rang plenty about new/demo's ended up with a new CGTS after 2 weeks of searching/negotiation.

Hi guys

Been lurking for a while and had my mind working on the GTS since it was released. Has the last model on S and loved it.

Just a quick question. What are the delivery times just now on the GTS?? Based in Scotland.

Not been to the dealer yet.
Thanks
Hi Carbon80, I have been dealing with the OPCs in Scotland and recently put down my deposit on a £72.5k spec'd CGTS. Deal was agreed verbally and when I pushed for the details to be confirmed in writing big difference now on the finance deal. Needless to say I am looking at taking my order elsewhere. Give me a pm if you want more details.

My dealer told me on Monday that my car was in Emden so I have been tracking ships since then and hopefully my car is currently sitting off Grimsby waiting for a dock. So close now after a 9 month wait. bouncebouncebounce

Picked it up today :-)

Only done 40 miles so far so can't really comment but X73 seems really really good. A happy camper.





Stunning car mate!!

Would go with the same colour but maybe with the black wheels. But this is the nicest one i have seen so far!!

Is that agate? It looks sensational!

I'm still torn between a Cayman or a 991 this year if I go Porsche but have to say Agate (if if is) suits both shapes perfectly.

Thanks - went a bit nuts with the spec, but I'd wanted a Porsche for long enough so thought I might as well get all the toys I wanted.
On balance, I wouldn't have bothered with the Burmester if doing it again, the Bose is good enough IMO.
It just needs a wash now, only been washed once since I got it. Oops :-)
