I Bought a 997.2 911 Turbo S!

[@js002003]

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.

[@MrPTManning]

Built engine or are the stock internals good for that power?

[@BD-me4nk]

That car is perfection. Love the color, the brakes, the seats, the wheels, and even the rear wiper.... all perfect. Great taste

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Haha thank you!

[@davesaunders1573]

Spec is amazing, so clean the perfect 997TT!

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Thank you!

[@lepooj12]

i bought my 991.1 turbo s, i wasnt looking for one but when i saw a jet black metallic with two tone dark red and black + carbon interior with red dial and everything absolutely mint, i instantly bought it

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Awesome car!

[@olivierYF21]

Clean ride!!!! I have the same black on black.

[@teddydavid2816]

Black on black is king

[@MrBhop58]

Nice car, congrats on the purchase! Just bought one last week after searching for 7 months!

[@benbustama3430]

From one weightlifting GT Silver Pcar turbo owner to another… Congrats. BBS wheels are 🔥 Car looks great! 911 Turbo FTW!

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Lmao 💪 thank you!

[@gregs8685]

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.

[@gtrgato]

nice i had owned a 997 turbo. i miss it.

[@2fast2nick]

So nice. I love those wheels

[@gregoryfranks7347]

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

[@mark_robertson3]

Cool video, keen to see what you’re going to do with it next!

[@sammyh9542]

Beautiful machine congrats. I have owned a 997.2 turbo for the last 5 years and every time I press on the pedal it scares me until this day. Enjoy and be safe.

[@rollingreene1220]

Thank you for the very clear overview

[@itspronouncedjello]

God what I’d give to have one of these

[@teddydavid2816]

Man I pray you get one you seem like you would enjoy it!

[@gregoryfranks7347]

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

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated!

[@deralddatcher4911]

Great video. The car looks amazing. Is there a specific H&R lowering spring on the car?

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Thank you. Yeah they are the specific 997 turbo lowering springs soulpp.com/product/porsche-997-1-turbo-hr-sport-springs/

[@leekindell9937]

Over here in UK i have a gt silver 991.2 turbo s but i do loveeee the 997.2 turbo s always loved the shape. 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

[@insansiregar6158]

What's the biggest wheel size possible that fits?

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

@@insansiregar6158 20 is the biggest you could realistically go on these.

[@zali9657]

Congrats brother. My favorite 911 Gen. One day 💪🏼

[@adolfogonzalez1305]

Would love to see all the research you did. Awesome ride.

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

I will definitely expand on that, it can be a daunting process!

[@vbwine2003]

Wow! Absolutely perfect spec! Minus the PDK.

[@prodrivebrasil]

One of the most beautiful Porsches ever!

[@joselpepo]

Cool car. These vehicles, I wonder how common it is to ask to lift the car to inspect the bottom for any damages?

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

@@joselpepo Pretty common I think. I always ask to see underneath before buying a car!

[@JoJoJoker]

Great buy. These are the greatest of the 911s. Modern AWD & PDK. Small 996-based platform. Sharp example! The only things it is “missing” (a generous term) are clear tails and painted setbacks/center console

[@matthewrowan6452]

I was trying to buy this car from a PCA member earlier this year :) Congrats!

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

No way small world! When I was shopping anything good that popped up was sold almost immediately, so when this car came up I did not hesitate! The day it was posted on there I reached out and worked a deal with the seller.

[@MW-uy3np]

Don’t ever sell

[@TheZakk28]

Beautiful car - I think the 997 Turbo is the perfect 911. Great extras on this example. Dream combo is a Mezger .1T with the 6 speed and the updated .2 rear end 😎

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Thank you! I couldn't agree more..

[@weldscientist]

I’m a fan of the rear wiper. The only option I’m missing on mine.

Thank you!

[@jstoli996c4s]

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_Spotlight]

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.

[@jstoli996c4s]

@@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 ✌️

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

@@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.

I am about to buy a 2013 Turbo S 997.2 with 42k miles and a very clean title. The owner is offering it to me for $130k. I need your advice And is the prices of this model is raising up!

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

@@bodibarca definitely high on price… 2013s are the rarest 997.2 turbo but still high. With that mileage it should be sub 110k imo. Good luck!

[@bodibarca]

@I really like the car! I tried several times to negotiate, but the owner refused to lower the price, insisting on it because the car is in excellent condition and all maintenance has been done at the Porsche dealership

[@Francois997.2]

Did you already get a new exhaust, just bought a Turbo S and unfortunately it has a sports exhaust, sounds like a V8 Helllcat. stick to vacuum I would say, or swap with me ;-) ( Only 18,000 miles on the clock )

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

I did! I am making a video on it. It really isn't too loud at all.

[@alk3myst]

C4S vs Turbo S are night and day different.

[@tomburns890]

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

[@Stuttgart_Spotlight]

Thank you! I don't, have DSC controller yet! I purchased velocity ap cats and x-pipe, video on that coming soon!

[@tomburns890]

@@Stuttgart_Spotlight the DSC controller is a must have and simple plug and play 10 min install to get the very noticeable 2017+ suspension technology A+ upgrade to help soften the stiff oem suspension specs.
