    997 daily, except at this time of year when the Cayenne Turbo gets out and about a lot more than usual...

    05 Toyaota Tacoma TRD Sport gets me around, while the Cab safely sleeps away the Canadian winter.
    My SO drives an RX330 Sport.
    Son drives a Honda Civic which we both enjoy working on!

    Re: Daily driver

    From late March to early November my 997s. The rest of the year, an Infiniti G35X. The winter around here is just too brutal for the 911 IMO.

    Great pics Mike! Thanks for sharing....

    How do you find the x5 4.8 handling in comparison to the CT? For me, the handling and stability of the CT vs the 4.4 wasn't even close!...

    You're welcome!

    Regarding the handling etc. Let me make it short, "Porsche, there is NO substitute."

    Re: 997 owners, what is your daily driver?

    I get my 997S next week, so I expect it to be my daily driver, unless the weather is bad (not very often in So Cal). My other car is a BMW 740i.

    Sorry, I guess I didn't say, it's a Honda Element.
    It's either fugly or quirky looking depending on who you ask. Mine's the AWD version.

    76 FJ40 w/383 Stroker crate motor

    I know that this Might seem weird but I go between my 997S and my 76 FJ40 with a 383 Stroker in it. Lots of torque and horsepower but only goes in a straight line

    5 out of 7 days my 997S is the car I drive, about once a week I drive the Lotus Elise and if I have to haul something than I get one of my wifes trucks.

    My beautiful 997 cab is my daily driver, but on rainy or bad weather days, or when taking my boys to my ranch in the Texas Hill Country, its my '95 Range Rover County LWB for me.
