Yes. That fits perfectly in the front trunk.

Thanks for helping me to make up my mind.

I went with a 911 GTS, but I do also have a Wrangler for winter and picking up a Christmas tree.

Yep do it all the time has room for a few more inches. Do it when dropping off the wife for her travels.

We seem to be on a similar path! C63 - M5 - GTS. Or at least that's what I'm looking at.

How have you found the power of the GTS compared to the M5? Do you feel power starved by the GTS? I know they are different cars, but just curious your experience. I haven't driven the 991.1 GTS, but my concern that a NA engine with PDK would get boring after coming from the M5. Would almost consider a manual or wait for the 991.2 GTS that will likely be turbo.

I also played with the German mercedes site configurator for the c63 coupe. It looks nice!! Plus they finally beefed up the rear with flared fenders and wider tires.

I take delivery late December, so I haven't gotten it yet. I doubt I'd find any type of performance car at this level boring as I don't get to drive all that often. I love DCT, so imagine if love PDK as well. My biggest gripe with the C63 was that it was not MCT.

The M5 drops so much power off the line that I'm looking forward to the lighter weight but less powered 911. Once I saw pics of the 991.2, I ordered the 991.1 GTS, just didn't like the center exhaust, vertical grill slats, and rear bumper slits. Also wanted to get the last NA motor possibly (non GT3).

Keep M5, add GT350R ?
