congrats man! just sold my 997.1 manual turbo making over 700hp and already looking to replace it with a 997.2... the 997 turbo might just be the perfect car.

Nice. I love the color and options. I think it will look (and ride) even better on stock 19s. I’m betting it’s pretty harsh on the 20s and aftermarket springs. Can’t wait for a driving video and comparison to the C4S.

holy shit pickles!!! what a sano car! its so subtle yet to those who are true 911 fanatics its just right(well 300 additional horsepower is always a sound upgrade) this car is perfect weapons grade ultra performance car!!! people mis-classify these all the time they are not supercars the production numbers alon blow that out those peoples asses. no this is the best sports car(which supercars are in this category too) money can be. it offers performance that can rival or with tuning whip a supercar some hypercars. it can be driven daily to store, commute to work or do roll-ons a 70-130 on the highway. this is also the best tuning platform as well because other than twin turbo kits on V10 no other platform gives the dollar to power ratio like this. parts are pricy but they will last as long as you own it and 911 turbo power is different than any other car. other cars need 150 more horse than whatever the 911 turbo has to keep up with performance. I take car of my brothers air-cooled car but its become so valuable the stress of driving has sadly displaced his will to drive it often. that's criminal. the worst thing you can do to a performance car is let it sit. I haven't watched the video yet, I got so excited and paused it after a minute because I was so excited to tell you you have outstanding taste. you found an extremely tasteful yet aggressive 997 great work. oh I'm trying to get my brother to sell his 19k guards 993 turbo so he can get a newer car that he can drive. there would also be enough left over to buy me a medium mileage 996 turbo. its a win win for him. LOL. my friend your cars is a weapon, it looks like a weapon and I'm sure drives like a weapon as well. now I'm going to watch and enjoy!! thanks for sharing it. im subscribed now so I'm looking forward to seeing a shit ton more with this car. cheers

My turbo has full options inc rear wiper too. painted lower trims look so much nicer too and make car look lower. i put gt3 side skirts on mine and had the ppfd before putting on adds protection to rear arches. i normally dont like an aftermarket alloy on a porsche but those are nice, looks like u got a lovely 997 there

oh yes gt silver or ice blue metallic tickles my pickle. you found such a great specced car I'm sure it was commanding top dollar but this specific car is worth I believe. I like you am a 911 fanatic. the first car I remember seeing was in 1980 a 6 years old and my dad took me to the only Porsche dealer in Baltimore(there were several in MD but one close to us) and saw a silver '79 930 turbo and since then that's the only car in my dreams until '84 when I discovered RUF but that another story. this car has all the right bits and being the 997.2 it doesn't have all the carbon bits, its still right size(but right on the edge) pdk with its stance and wheel combo oh my it just right. of course like you I'd do some things but there isn't a better car out to start or just like it is would and is my dream. now to address the c4 vs turbo, some people will see the same car but we know there are the turbo things we've come to know a distinguish from n/a or Carreras but its a totally different car to the owner. they have the same character flaws of its less than ideal layout but that's its charm other than that even a stock motor car is a savage beast compared to a c4. every sensation is enhanced, its all c4s X10 but they feel like brothers one a stoner burnout and the other a CEO of fortune 500 company with a smokin' hot wife and a garage full of Porsches. im sure you now know which is which. you're a patient man and it paid off in spades!!! cheers

That is one sweet looking Turbo S! Nice compact feel of the 997 body with warp speed capabilities with the twin turbo engine 🚀 Is it correct to assume that you sold the C4S due to relative lack of power and torque? That’s the one thing that makes me hesitant on getting a 997 or 991.1 Carrera - anemic power down low and having to always rev the engine like mad to get in the powerband.
@Stuttgart_Spotlight24 күн бұрын
Thank you! Well said! No not necessarily the reason I sold it, 997.2 Turbo was always my dream car so the C4S was just a stepping stone to get there. The C4S had plenty of power for the street and you could drive it harder on the road. It does lack low end torque of course but that's the nature of those engines. I will make a video comparing the two.
@jstoli996c4s24 күн бұрын
@@Stuttgart_Spotlight I guess I will have to test drive a 997.2 S and see if the power is acceptable to me. My daily driver is a Mk7.5 Golf R with stage 1, 375bhp, and boost kicking in at 2500rpm. It’s a blast! That said, a 911 is my dream car. Just a matter of determining what works for me and keeps within my budget ✌️

@@jstoli996c4s I also have a tuned mk7.5 golf R lol. The R definitely has more low end grunt than the C4S but top end is stronger on the Porsche. Handling is simply no comparison though, the Golf feels like a bus compared to the 911.

Good video and Greatest all round sports car ever made and best version 911 Turbo ever the 997. Does it have a DCS suspension controller a must have. I like Europipe & as an exhaust option but also Fabspeed muffler bypass considering weight loss, sound & added power. I had a silver with Terrocatta 996 Turbo Stick and now a 997 Turbo Tiptronic meteor grey with rare Sea Blue which I love so much more. Check out my 997 Turbo with 20” Techart video. Cheers
