I've actually seen quite a few 997 turbos, and of course the gt3. I'm going to need a pretty severe market correction for either of those though. :(

Edit. Yes those count as cloth. But someone cut off the roof.

What's in your fleet right now?

What about the regular 991 S? Are they still crazy pricey like every Porsche nowadays?

Actually, I drove my sister's DSG VW this past weekend and if the Porsche implementation is anything like VW's they can keep it. I'll take my old-school BMW SMG over that thing any day.

edit:
And while I'm thinking about it, the VW fake engine noise thing is absolutely ridiculous. Just dumb.

edit II:
I'd prefer the silver 991 up thread to the blue one. :)

Porsche is supposed to the best DCT implementation. VW DSG annoyed me since it auto shifts at redline in manual mode(Or it at least used to)

Yes it does, and I've read that Porsche's does the same. The VW was also slow to respond to the paddles.

PDK is very different from DSG. I take manuals over PDK but there is no comparison with DSG. I've never driven a DSG that I didn't hate. I also disliked the SMG by the way, but less so. At least it was snappy and interesting. No, I didn't stick with SMG long enough for its 'learning curve'.

With PDK I think it depends what mode your in for auto shifting or not.

Mines a manual (without the auto rev feature btw) so I'm not quite sure.

But 996:ack:

:) Nice. those sport techno wheels look pretty nice. 996 GT3 wheels are kind of boring looking anyways, IMHO.

It's cheap and has sport chrono. The wheels are Carrera S IIs. They've been painted an ugly color, but presumably could be fixed. The graphics require a hairdryer and 20 min.

not a fan of the 911 R stickers either but would probably get them if you gave me $500k to buy one:D
