    Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Here's one in the very early AM. I was able to change my pajamas into street clothes before jumping in to drive.

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Another, parked correctly from where I'm standing.

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Interior with clean dashlines (no stitches, no SC)

    here's one of the..., 997s!

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Nice pics. Thats Arctic isn't it?

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    here's one at sunset.

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    MMD,

    great photo's, especially like the 1st one. The paint picks up the sunrise glow.
    The question is - Did you get up at sunrise to photo the car or put down some HOT laps on your favorite back roads before they got busy

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Beautiful pics and even more beautiful 997S!!

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Great looking. I do like the classic wheels again!!!!
    Nice way you put it: pure dash lines....no stiching, no SC. I haven't looked at it this way before.....

    Thanks Gnil. I don't want to take away anything from the beauty of the leather dash, but I was worried that the "vinyl" dash would look cheap. I was very happy that it looks ALOT nicer than I expected. Doesn't look cheap at all; perhaps it looks less sumptuous than the leather but it's dfinitely Porsche quality at it's best. People have been in the car and I ask them all about the dash, they all "love" it. I then ask if they think it looks cheap, they typically don't even understand why I would ask that question.

    So, if leather is drop-dead gorgeous, vinyl is very very attractive.

    LOL. Nah, just jumped into the car, parked it and waited. Nice and still and quiet. Was like being in your favorite art museum all alone. Soooo cool to see such absolute formal beauty and know the time-evolved engineering and extreme precision that reside just underneath.

    Love has many forms Now I got Porsche Love.

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Great shots and very beautiful car, MMD!

    The dash does look very nice/ clean!
    Arctic Silver!

    Thank you!

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Nice "picchers" MMD

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Nice shots! I specially like the first one because of the lighting like Gary said

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    Ditto re the first picture... Congrats on your new car!!

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    I think that's "PICTURES," NOT "PICCERS."

    Call your sales guy! Change your order! I'm sorry but the color balance is way off, I don't know why. MY interior is black, the photo just looks blue.

    Re: Picchers of My Copy of the 997S

    WOW ! Thanx for the pics....my favorite color combo:Arctic/Black. Shows off the lines of the Carrera the BEST IMHO. I like the non leather interior: much less maintenance, excellent leatherette. There is enough standard leather on seats, shifter, steering wheel, and door handle inside grip/armrest to complement the interior and give leather smell. Also like the non Spolrt Chrono look....much less clutter and reminds me of the dash look of older 911's.
