Hello, I would like to know who ordered his car switched on and or bought it, since I do it now with our family growth and can somehow not win anything off – except that it is not easy to let the vehicle glide quietly and fluidly over the road. And then it should also be slower ! – even marginally and not to notice, but to measure !

The rumors are condensed that the current versions of 997GT3 and GT3RS will only be produced in the current year. A (not yet to be assigned more precisely) Mk2 version would then succeed later. The rumors are therefore credible, as: – some indirectly confirmed by dealers – the 997 FL will be associated with performance increases (about 400hp in the 997s version), the distance to the current GT3/GT3RS will therefore melt together – Porsche is well known from 2008 to meet the US requirements with regard to equipping all future cars with PSM. Current interested parties of the GT3 and GT3RS should know these rumors, I find.

Hello to all forum members. May the new GT2 test drive yesterday. Pick-up place was the one from Solingen. Coffee, short instructions and keys in the hand. From the outside looks as if it just came from the race track and was repainted to make it look more humane. Engine started and …hmmmmm…. I expected more from the Titanic system in the first eye. Thought…. A kick on the right pedal…..wowwww….Pure goose skin…. But didn’t want to get too fuzzy in front of the car dealership. The acceleration that I was able to experience on public roads blew up my perception area. It goes forward.. I’ve never experienced anything like that before. Luckily, the electronic helpers are on board, otherwise I would have been overwhelmed at full speed. (No race driver) Driving curves has been so fun, that I think it’s as nice as sex. Off on the highway. Frustration pure. Everything crowded. More than small sprints were not in it. But alone they almost made me cry. If an acceleration is perverse, then the one brought back from the GT2. car. The price over 190,000€. Last? Never. Dreaming? Always. Congratulations to Porsche for this great car and to all who will be the last. MfG

Hi again. Leidfer was closed my other thread without having written something worse, I don’t understand why. Ichh read it through me. Many attack me because of my spelling and because I want to buy an expensive car. I don’t care. The people who scold are jealous and I don’t answer. Ichhw ill ask here what kind of equipment you should take with a Cayman. Are the big rims exaggerated, is it worth the chronopacket? I don’t want to anymore. as 65000 euro for this car. I have excluded the m3 qwei it is too expensive. So it remains only cayman and s5 How is the insurance at cayman? is it more expensive than the audi s5? I am in my insurance at 35%. Thanks in advance. Please only answers that have something to do with it otherwise the forum owner also makes this thread. Thank you

Hi guys I don’t want to disturb the cozy atmosphere here, so I feel as short as possible with my little technical problem I replenished with my 64er last week the all-time carried litre of oil, when the oil level pointer even in idle mode only tugged over the red area and was told by oil knife that I was only in the lower 5th range of the oil level scale. When I then about half an hour later at a traffic light on the pointer When I saw it, it had reached only a round pointer width under the upper mark. Then I tried the oil knife again and found out that I “scratched” the MAX border slightly. Would I now be well advised to release some oil or does it pack it without big fisimatents? Thank you for your assessments. Salut Alfan

Friday I had the opportunity to test an AMG GT/s for a few hours. Conclusion: NOT MEINS I totally miss the emotion with the car, it is certainly stronger straight ahead than my 997 GTS, but it does not grab me. We had agreed at 6 p.m. that they could pick him up again – I called there at 16.30 h that I was finished. If with such a car the ” Having Wants” does not enter, then it does not fit. In 10 years we can again via Mercedes in the area red But then via a nice strong SL as a day car for the older man and without an AMG riot. By the way, I learned that Mercedes is about to bring a more than 400 hp diesel 6 Zyl. onto the market. There is a possibility to drive Mercedes as a business car again, because the designs have won strongly to my taste.

Dear community, when it comes to the question of whether a 996 or 997 should be added, the spirits differ. Many do not like the face of the mirror, but the 996 (still) is much cheaper to have. But if I compare a 996 3.6l FL with a 997 Carrera pre-FL, I come to the following conclusion: the cars, especially the engine, are technically almost identical. Both contain the risk “KWS”, both have Lokasil instead of Nikasil coating (and thus a possible Probl. and the 5 more-hp at 997 are probably more cosmetics. Isn’t the 996 the “more reasonable” choice, since price performance is better? As I said, the topic of optics is outside. That’s subjective and pure taste matter anyway. Alternatively, the Carrera S offers itself, whereby it probably also suffers from KWS and coating? What do you think?

I hope to find competent contact persons among the users of this forum, who can give me advice on the conversion of my recently acquired Cayenne. Background is my occupation as district forester. The following conversions are planned by me: -Floor protection plates, over the entire area of the underbody, however, from the lower edge of the tailgate to the underside of the bonnet. -Conversion of the leather seats on artificial leather finish. This would be for the use of the interior after hunting recommended. – Rope winch on the roof with pulley on A-pillar. I do not consider mounting the winch on the front bumper, for aesthetic reasons. Unfortunately, I did not find any comparable topics in this forum. -Blood tub from loading edge rear door to back of the front seats. -Refitting to gas, since the maintenance costs were not in proportion to the NUsage. Please only serious answers to my request. Greeting.

Hello everyone! To make it short: I have no idea of luxury sledges, but would like to send one to my friend for his birthday over the weekend and especially rent a fast flicker (he knows best about cars, but I can ask him bad about it….). I am looking for good offers all the time already in I-net (the cheapest is a Porsche Boxter convertible for 559 €/weekend), but just find nothing in my price range (max. 300 €). ng mit? Or can I recommend a car hire in South Hesse (Frankfurt/Main, Darmstadt, Wiesbaden) that offers such offers?? At Avis, Hertz, Sixt, Europcar I have already looked at it myself, but there is nothing suitable for it… *sniff* For helpful answers I would be very grateful! LG Pen

Hello everyone, I actually come from the BMW warehouse ride currently as a summer or leisure car an M3 E46 year 2002. The car is now in my possession since the end of 2011 and it will now be so slowly but surely time for a change. It is certain that it will be a Porsche and that it will be a Carrera of the 996 series. I personally like the 996 series relatively well and it is also the cheapest way to drive a Porsche My budget is 25.000€, absolute pain limit 27,000€… (Sale of the BMW is provided of course). As far as the technology of the Porsche models is concerned, I meet absolute new ground… Although I didn’t fall on my head and have already made a little smart on the I-net with regard to the weak points of the 996 series, I still want to hear some tips and suggestions from you here, as well as about an occasional racetrack use of a Carreras. I am a relatively sporty driver and visit the racetrack (Nordschleife). The M3, slightly modified (KW Clubsport suspension, racing brake linings, steel flex brake lines, CSL rims+tire dimensions), has provided me with a lot of fun. Now it’s time for something new, so => Porsche, 996, Carrera 2 (FL) or Carrera 4S? Which of the two gives your opinion the better figure, on the road (sporty driving style) and 2-3 visits a month on the road. nnstrecke? I know even that the Carrera models are not the best for the race track, but for a GT3 the money is not enough The Porsche will probably not remain original anyway, since a KW chassis is definitely already on the wish list, probably also a spoiler, brake upgrade… Carrera 2 (FL) Advantage: rear drive, less weight Disadvantage: base suspension and brakes Carrera 4S Advantage: sharper optics, brakes and suspension components from the turbo disadvantage: higher Gewi cht, worse acceleration because of the four-wheeler I have left the traction aside on purpose now, since Porsche generally has a good traction. Whether rear drive or four-wheeler, does not play the biggest role in my decision now. I thank you already in advance for your opinions and tips. Greetings
