    Re: Porsche experience day cars, would you buy one?

    I think the 981 has a different schedule of over-revs than 987...

    It was just an example (I couldn't find anything newer) but the range levels should be the same.

    I think the redline of the 987 was 7,500 and 981 is 7,800 (but maybe my memory is bad)

    I wouldn't worry. These cars can take some abuse. Enjoy the GTS!

    Welcome to the famous very limited in numbers GTS ownership club on rennteam.com Smiley

    And, yes, the additional side vents of the GT4 can be sourced and installed at a Porsche dealer of your choice. And, another "yes", zunsport in the UK offers a meshgrill set for the front, which you can install yourself and which will keep the debris and stones away from your cooling system. And, finally, yes, if you are interested to put some stone guard on your fabulous GTS, 3M has a computerized master for your car available.

    Enjoy!Smiley

    Re: Porsche experience day cars, would you buy one?

    Cheers guys! Absolutely Love it, went for a drive through the Suffolk countryside earlier. Perfect weather perfect roads and perfect car! Man does this sound incredible and handles so much nicer then the M4 which is already a great car :-).

    I think after this the only choice is a GT4, what else would deliver this kind of fun without breaking way into the 6 figure mark.
