    My new 997S Cab

    Well, I am happy to report that my new 997S Cab is everything that I expected and more. My previous car was a 2002 996 Cab, and I cannot begin to tell you how much better of a car the 997 is. The quality of workmanship/use of better materials in the interior of the 997 is exceptional, and it really dates the 996 interior IMHO. And the engine, giddeeyup! With the S, I can feel a noticeable difference in acceleration, ride comfort, and steering from my 996. And how about that engine sound? On the 997S cab with the top down, the sonorous rumble is music to my ears. It's SO much better than in my 996. I haven't yet heard the 997 PSE, but the 997 Cab S works like a charm for me. Simply fantastic!

    Sweet! Where in Texas are you?

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    Thanks for the compliments! I live in Austin. This is the second Porsche that I have bought through Roger Beasley Porsche. The sales staff (John Grassi) and sales management (Beau Rice) are wonderful to work with!

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    Congratulations - your new 997S is a beauty!

    I can just imagine driving it around with the top down this Summer...lucky you!

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    Looks great and just in time for the beautiful weather! Enjoy:!

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    Shawminator, beautiful car!
    Midnight blue, classic and classy

    Are they stock exhaust pipes or chrome pipes?

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    In answer to your question, the exhaust pipes are stock. They look great now, but over time I'm sure that they may fade a bit. Funny that you should ask, but I have actually been on the fence as to whether I should upgrade to the T-Equipment chrome pipes (which have just become available) or maybe just try some Autosol or some other cleanser when needed. I'd love to have any feedback on the Autosol product if anyone has used it.

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    lovely lovely car and fanstastic choice of colours!

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    Re: My new 997S Cab

    Very nice ride. Enjoy.
