Brilliant.

Will you mod the exhaust?

No this one will stay standard i think, did an upgrade on a 720S Mclaren but these cars today are never going to sound like the 80's F1 cars of old
so up tp now i won't bother!

I have to have a painted roof, again a result of the 720S, the rain falls on the glass roof and always needs cleaning to get rid of the water marks

I’ve only had the one car with a sunroof but found it a bit frustrating because in cold weather I could hear it moving and squeaking a little over bumps.

It’s rather put me off having another sunroof car. Anyone else experienced that or should I treat it as a one-off fault with my car?

OMG! the old ones didn't, i hope the new one doesn't

Well Done !

I've had a 997 GT3RS and 991 GT3RS but years before those had a 993 Turbo (melted cheese spoiler)

But now again, I have ordered a 992 turbo, I'm getting older (55) and I'm looking for a fast, safe, road car which is comfortable.

Guess my RS days are over because of the ridiculous way in which they are ordered, it spoils the fun.

The turbo was ordered by a straight forward phone call to a new dealer who was more than happy to take my money

[LordOfTheManor]

No, but I've just stepped out of a Mclaren 720S so nothing is going to be as fast, it was one of the reasons for the sale of that car,

I wanted to keep my licence a little longer

[LordOfTheManor]

your point ?

[LordOfTheManor]

My turbo comes without it, as it will never see a track, only fast Welsh mountain roads

Grand Prix White - you can't beat it

[LordOfTheManor]

They should have kept the "speed yellow" not racing yellow!

It makes you sound silly when people ask you the colour name

Love the buckets, i'll be 56 this month,so I went for the armchairs in mine

[LordOfTheManor]

I wanted the car to remind me of old ......my first 3.0 and then the later supersport (sold for £12k now worth a fortune) back in the days,

when life was normal.

when I collected her, I felt that "deja vu" feeling and the car was bought in mind, with it being a "keeper car"

[LordOfTheManor]

thanks

[LordOfTheManor]

I was tempted to go lightweight, seats, glass, roof etc... because a build slot for a gt3 was never going to happen!!

so I understand why people go this way... I'm getting older and a little more boring I guess, so I took the Victor Meldrew route

[LordOfTheManor]

Why spec the the turbo with buckets if you are getting a gt3, it seems pretty pointless to me !
