Looks strangely attractive. Is it a GT3?

That is lovely, much much better than the usual bland silver/grey/blue/black colours.

it's a 997 S, with the factory aerokit - and just about as many options the dealer could fit on th eorder form.
I'm not into the bland colours for Pork - has to be different !

'interesting' colour scheme. I kinda like it - much more eye catching than your run of the mill grey/silver/black. Not sure about the black wheels, but well done for going for something individual!

Cracking car! The back looks a bit high though maybe scratchchin? Is there a rear valence you could add?

HI guys - thanks for all the comments
Yes, I do feel very lucky whenever I drive it - I never take this for granted

Difference to the 996 ?
more power (obviously)
far more planted rear end
feels to have more natural grip
less chattery front end
option to go stiff on track !
that noise !

as regards the rear height - I think it's the photo angle
There is a fair bit of air in the arches, but there's no way I'd lower it any.
The front lip has already taken a bashing on our crap roads

Happy Christmas to everyone

David

Great looking 997 there, it definitely makes a change from the black and silver you usually see. Were the red rimmed wheels an exclusive option?
