    Re: my new 997S

    "Did you consider buying the new BMW M5/M6?"

    In fact yes, I am (was ?) a BMW freak (323i, M3, M5, X5) but I buyed the E39 M5 early, and got some problems (1l Castrol RS 10W60 per 1000km) so I did not want to order the new one immediately. Btw the 911 is a old dreaam, really happy with it, maybe addicted now to it and , who knows, next one will be the Turbo ? (if not bankrupt)
    And my BMW dealer should have contact me to test the car, seems like he forgot javascript:void(0)
    :[dontknow]: => I drive the 997S...

    I will post more pictures, but I need first to wash the car...

    Re: my new 997S

    Atlas grey is nice because it slightly changes with the light on it, it is sometime dark, sometime more clear and even you can find some dark green in it
    It is the first car I took with terra cotta (all other black), no regrets except maybe some reflexions in the windshield, but no really ennoying
