2007 997 turbo
Saw one at the dealership today. What an amazing car! My brother has a Carrera S on order and salesman showed him the first Turbo they got in. Nice. Thought it would look much like the 996 but it does look alot different than I thought. [8D]

Yeah, I think the 997 looks more like a 993 than a 996!:)

RE: 2007 997 turbo

RE: 2007 997 turbo
That's SOOOOOOOOOO sick looking!!!!. So why, if you have not already told other's, are you tearing apart this perfect car? That thing looks better in your shop than the dealer or the porsche site. Thanks for the photo's , it just makes me even want my car more than ever. This is killing me having to wait until Oct. 30th. HMMMM. Give us details what your are planning to do!!!

Also, what is that ring looking thing coming out of the front bumper:eek:

RE: 2007 997 turbo
One more thing, when you say "six speed of course" why the trip (S) for 07' is faster than the six speed right? Or does it just have to do with the fun of driving the six speed.

RE: 2007 997 turbo
"In my opinion, while it may be faster, you don't buy a sports car with an automatic...."
I agree. But I have good friends with Tiptronics that swear by them . . . It just not seem sport. I'll stick with my manual have-to-shift-it transmission, even if it is slower. |
RE: 2007 997 turbo
So Doc, any progress on the car? I just added the loc diff to my order today, do you have one on your yellow beast?

RE: 2007 997 turbo
Ok, look what showed up today: GT3 front bumper. Lip spoiler for it seems to be MIA, will have to figure out where that got shipped to, lol.
http://karl.wilen.us/images/GT3Bumper1.JPG Notice the GT3 bumper uses the same turn signal lens as the standard 997. The TT's on the other hand use the seperate LED turn signals. http://karl.wilen.us/images/GT3Bumper2.JPG So what do you do? Well, you cut open a $400 set of brand new foglamp/turn signal assemblies, and start modifying.....we really want to keep the LED turn signals. It isn't finished yet, there is still a lot of filling and sanding to do on the inside, but you can get the idea.... http://karl.wilen.us/images/GT3Bumper3.JPG |
RE: 2007 997 turbo
Doc...that is sick to just rip her apart right outta the box.
Can't believe that. |
RE: 2007 997 turbo
wow!

RE: 2007 997 turbo
Lol, I should probably make an updated post. The car now has full Brembo big brake kit all around, Dymag carbon fiber wheels, techart side skirts, rear diffuser, and rear window diffuser, larger intercoolers, programming, intake, and exhaust makinng about 600hp. H&R lowering springs, integrated XM radio.
