    Yes it was an individual order. Unfortunately the car had paint faults; it was repainted because of the individual color quality. I turned in the car back when I had learned it.

    Here is one picture taken inside; just before I picked up the car from the dealer.

    Re: PIC. of my 07 Carrera S

    Once again, the 997S looks fantastic. The M3, is simply beautiful. It's a shame however about the paint, the pictures look awesome. My previous car was a Carbon Black/Imola 2002 M3. It was a powerhouse of a car.

    Cheers.

    Meteor looks nice, seems very similar to Seal no? Maybe a bit darker?

    There is a Porsche dealer in Turkey, but since I do car business and import cars from Germany/ Netherlands, I put my order directly from where I buy cars and I'll import my own car. Also with this way, I buy the same car cheaper.

    Of course I won't. Previously I had 2 E46 M3s' and I strictly obey the break-in rules.

    Do you plan to drive the car in Germany / NL before taking it to Istanbul?

    Is there a difference in taxes whether you personally import / buy a used car outside Turkey or aquire a new one inside the country?

    Unfortunately I don't have time to go to Germany at this time of the year. But I'm planning a road trip from Germany to Alps in summer.

    No there is no difference in taxes and you cannot import a second hand car in Turkey but when I import the car myself, it costs me lesser than buying from Turkish Dealer because I get better discount from Netherlands.

    well when the taxes make these cars pushing 200k euros. The discount on the base he gets matters. What a rip off in my country. In addition we have the most expensive gas in EU.

    The colour and wheel combo looks sensational. Meteor is a colour that looks great in bright sunlight. Congratulations and enjoy
