Lovely morning today for a drive and some pics...

The 992 will never live up to this generation of 911 (and the 991) - stunning car! Bet every drive feels like an event.

Thanks - must admit, every drive is an event. They sound nice anyway, however with the bypass as well it really gives you goosebumps!

Had it a couple of months but can't stop using it

As a guy I know said many years ago - "They're for driving, not polishing.!
Keep enjoying it.

I think that's a genuine sport classic isn't it? Mines based on a gen 1 c2s which has been wrapped etc.

It’s a factory 997 Sport Classic. A bit of a homage to the ‘73 RS.

It’s basically a 997 GTS with a body kit and Porsche exclusive interior.

That’s lovely I do remember them coming out new now.

Sorry, I thought you had created an amazingly real looky likey ... My mistake.

Weren’t 911 Sport Classics ‘silly money’ when you considered what you actually got?

Not that I wouldn’t just love one…
