Talking Porsche Carrera S 911 (991) 2012

I was driving the other day to find myself in a 991CS orgy. The car doesn't come out for another week in SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

The new 991S is even more expensive than the 997.2S that it replaces, which was more expensive than the .1S. That being said I would love to be back in a position to own one again (911). The new car is brought into the modern era as far as amenities and is made more civilized which some of the purists are already complainig. The 991S rocks..can't wait to see what the GT3 is going to be about let alone a GT2 and such.

It is a great car, pictures don't really do them justice


I also thought that they were already out? I saw 2 sitting at the one dealership already and a Black one running around town last week....

Impressive that the 991S is faster than the 997.1 GT3 on most tracks. The 991 GT3 will kill those times, can't wait till it becomes available.

i love'em, but gawd damn they are expensive!! Understandable when you consider that they could probably hang with an F360, but still. Tough to stomach for mere mortals like myself.

Loved the video ... nice if one can understand each word spoken ... loved the ending when Mathias friend gets a text message and tells his wife that he likes to get himself a Porsche when they eventually get the money from her Grandma and she replies "If he is dreaming" (Sag mal spinst Du jetzt?)... priceless

Thanks for sharing

Cheers ...

These are the test groups that have been running out of Porsche's set-up at the El Toro Marine Base. They've been posted up here for the past month and run a few groups on the runway and out on to the 5 South each day...
