360CS in Chiswick

[JEBLondon]

Saw a beautiful red 360CS parked on Chiswick High Street literally outside the police station on Friday night.

If the owner is here, just a post from a Porsche 997 driver to say that's a helluva beautiful car and it was pulling a big crowd of admirers.

Congrats.

Yep. That's the one (saw your profile pic). Red interior looks great.

Don't worry, not a stalker..!! Just happened to park my pride and joy (new 997C2S) across from yours and couldn't help giving yours an admiring backward glance..!!

Nice one! Thanks for the nice words, will be back there on Thursday - fish restaurant/mongers just off the High Street is having it's annual lobster and crab fest!

Enjoy the 997, old neighbour of mine has just taken delivery of one and he certainly seems to be!

Living in Chiswick the 997 was my only real option. Park on the street, use as everyday driver, etc etc.

Kinda limits my potential to get a Ferrari but always dreamed of one... Much prefer the shape of the 360 to the 430 and the CS just looks great.

Enjoy the lobster..!!

not a bad 'only option' is it

what spec did you get, personally I think they look miles better than the 996 they have replaced! 993 Turbo was always my personal favourite Porsche

Went for a 997 Carrera S with all the toys.

If you like the 997 I'll quite happily swap...

Anjum,

I've seen you're old car a couple of times (putting 2 and 2 together!), but never parked. Once in Richmond and once out near Ham (although I heard it before seeing it - the Black Diablo, Y666***). Loavely car.

I've parked all sorts outside my house, CLS, C4S etc but I wouldnt feel comfortable street parking anything more exotic. You ever had any hassles?
