Hey brother!

Yep. It will be a short term fun car for me. Gotta disagree on the red though-OOOOOOOOOooooooooooohhh it look so hot in person! Rosso Corsa is the most popular color.

Spring time is the likely time for the 991 S Turbo or a GT3 (if I can get one). Although I am in no rush. I love my 991.

Hahaha! Yeah, I remember seeing this. "This is a tool. This is a weapon. The 911 is at home on the race track..........It really feels like a race car...... t has a race car heritage and you feel it when you drive it".

Perfectly stated.

I'm just not a red car fan bro...But all that matters is that it's a Ferrari and you worked hard for it, so congrats and enjoy.

I saw a black 991 Turbo S at my dealer. It's gorgeous but you and I know you're gonna pay out the ass right now, and same goes for the GT3. It's wise to wait. I ordered wheels for my 991...stay tuned.

NICE! Can't wait to see them!

Yeah the Turbo S will drop a good bit on resale next year. The GT3 prob won't. Could have gotten on here but these greedy Atl dealers wanted $20K over MSRP. Total BS! Then they'll be upset when I order my car form somewhere else.

you havent seen one yet? The look great but they sit sooooooooooooo damn high; much higher than a 991 with SPASM. There is quite a few locally here- one dealer has 6 I think (auto gallery) and the stickers are high 180's to over 200k for a PTS (paint to sample).

The non S might be the way to go if tunes come out fast. Its what I did with my 2011 PDK--- non S with a tune pushed it past the stock S for the same gen (997.2).

No I saw the Turbo S. I was talking about his new wheels.

Yeah, they do sit high. FIRST THING I noticed. Looks crazy and I was thinking that I'd want to lower it but was wondering if it would screw up the dynamics of the car.

Yeah, most are $194-$205 here too. I don't know man you may be right. Turbo might be smarter. Prob is my buddy Tim will go out and get an S and then I'll have to do it just to keep up.

Yeah the regular Turbo is the way to go. Over 30k cheaper and I think a tenth of a second slower 0-60.

Hey Vic, you see how Henry thinks he can talk himself into not buying a new car for more than a year?-lol! All I gotta do is park the California out in front of his house for his girl to see and he's done.

At least that can be your excuse man.

Man the M5 has 4500 miles on it, and the Porsche has 2000 miles. My 2011 Escalade has 7000 miles on it in NY. My other half work assignment will be done in 2015 in AMS (too many damn cold places to live) and I may be done in NY back in ATL full time. If it works out as planned GT3 baby Mexico Blue. 4 cars in GA, and the SUV here ............I can wait because 2 have to go in 2015. My guess is the M5, and the 328 (yes 328). They will be swapped out for the GT3 and a Macan ......sorry not for me girl car. There ya go I'm waiting. When I grow up like you and Vic I may consider it!

Cold, I need to get a hold of your checking account-to refrain you from buying new cars for a while
Congrats. All look good; but for some strange reason, 991S looks more of a sporty that belongs on a race track.

Lol! Nothing harder than tracking an ordered car and then waiting on it! Are you gonna share what it is or are we going to have to wait for pics?
