    My CGT experience

    As my girlfriend and I were leaving my family's weekend apartment at the beach at 4am this morning, the streets were quite desolate. This is highly uncommon for Miami beach, even if it was raining. As we made our away towards my 997, I heard one of the most incledible sounds I have ever heard. The steady humming of a Carrera GT zooming by the both of us. Even my girlfriend turned to me as said "Whoa, what was that?" Once I finished drooling and the chills went away, I proceeded to explain to her the Carrera GT, in full detail. I was amazed, she was very interested! More than usual (I normally rant on about autos until she is blue in the face). I guess what I am trying to say is....1. the Carrera GT has brought me closer to girlfriend (haha) and 2. I must own one! Never before have I been so captivated by this car, I have seen it plenty of times at my local dealer, but never had I heard it in full force. Truly, a great way to end the night. Furthermore, I am still young and new to Porsche ownership.....aquiring such a car will take time, but I will own it.

    Thanks for letting me rant about this car, I am hopelessly addicted.

    Cheers!

    Me too, I saw a yellow one hidden in the garage of my local Porsche dealership today. Man, the pictures of the yellow Carrera GT don't do it justice. At all. It's like a completely different car.

    Its hard to think of a better sounding road car. nice story

    Re: My CGT experience

    thanks, it really is a great piece of engineering.

    Re: My CGT experience

    I've only seen a couple of them on the streets here in Orange County, CA. Once in Irvine and once in Corona Del Mar (Newport Beach). Then again, both were black and they might be the same car. Regardless, they are pretty nice to look at. Maybe I'll drop by Newport Auto Center and see one in person if they have one.

    Re: My CGT experience

    I completely agree. I just saw the cgt for the first time in person at my local dealership this past weekend. Pictures dont do a justice to this fantastic machine.
