New Purchase...996 Carrera 4S
Discussion
After being on the board for a good few months and keeping my eyes open for the spec I wanted plus looking at a few dogs, I finally picked up my 1st Porsche on Friday.
996 C4S in Arctic Silver with Black, has all the toys such as PCM2, Bose, Telephone prep, Switchable Pipes, Carbon Pack, Aluminium kit and City Boy Red Seat Belts.
Has had the RMS replaced and under Porsche Warranty.
After owning 4 M3'S on the trot I thought it would be similar...how wrong I was.
It feels so much more special and goes where you point it where as the M3 was a bit or a barge.
Plus insurance was the same at £1100 a year which is not bad considering I am 25.
If so see me around the Bucks and Berks area give me a thumbs up
Cheers Matt

I think it's because I live in East London.
One end of the street is like Beverly Hills, the other is like Little Bangladesh!!
