Agreed, 997 is HOT! I just prefer the swept headlights of the 996 i guess.. I havent seen inside of either unfortunately

The 997 wheels are much nicer though.

Yep - grey Lambo ragtop is one of mine.

Those rims are the standard 997 Turbo items. You can spec different style wheels - like the GT3 ones - when you order the car. Or you can have the dark bits body coloured, or painted black. There was a yellow 997 Turbo Cab at Porsche with yellow wheel inserts... that was a bad call.

That black one is owned by the brother of the guy we picked up our silver one from.

I'm just excited my 360CS is back in town. F*CK what a noise!

It makes the Lambo sound like a sewing machine! Race Mode FTW

I saw a grey Gallardo convertible on the weekend, cruising the great ocean rd... WITH THE ROOF UP!!! it was a beautiful day too...

saw this sexy thing today when i was getting some lunch:

(i'm still not decided on the factory wheels)

Me either man, never really liked them... though they looked alright in grey on a white 997 Turbo

Would look much better with GT3 rims on it...

PS James, take me for a spin, pleeeeease!

I did manage to run into these 2 lovely ladies not too long ago. Parked in a line and on Chapel St surprise!!!

Maaaaan the Lambo looks awesome in the flesh, photos don't do it justice!

Outside Cafe Sienna perhaps?

James,

I too saw the SPEED YELLOW 997 911TT Cab at Porsche a few weeks ago and just couldn't believe that the person that ordered it had ticket the $2890 exterior paint option box for the rims. Curious if they had also ticket the Seat Belts in Speed Yellow for $990 as well. Personally I dont really like these rims and would find myself spending countless hours cleaning them even though they have the black inserts as standard, hmm then again if I got the PCCB, maybe they wouldn't need cleaning so much. I personally think the fried egg lamps on the front of the 996 are nice but great to see Porsche move back to the original looking lights on the 997, hence I would order a 997 over the 996 any day of the week. For power, looks and over all GRUNT.

Curious where the guy in the F40 was then, they usually hunt in packs.

Talk about Chap-Laps......

Another addition to the ADI and abarn HO car park..

[Sheriff Wan]

Yeah Im not sure of the name of the cafe (its on a corner...) the owners sit outside at a reserved table and watch all the ppl checking out their cars...

Cant really blame them,if you got it flaunt it i say

[Jamezilla]

Yeah - that's the Sienna crew

You can see a TR behind the Murch and a 355 over the road.

Here is the 997 Turbo Cab Taxi - and yes, yellow seatbelt and yellow interior options were ticked...

I think I see one of my best mates in that photo in the background

[Ant97GTR]

I've just heard a very interesting bit of news that has me cracking 1/2 a fat

Apparently Aston has been developing a car in secrecy over the past 2 years or so that was unveiled to a very select group of people this week.....and they have been given strict intrustions to keep things quiet so don't expect details anytime soon.

All I can say is that its small, powered by 12 cylinders and is the quickest car Aston has ever produced. Could this be the Porsche beater that the Vantage didn't quite live up to be??

Terrible... such a shame.

Personally I think that anytime a Turbo is ordered in cabriolet it's a porka wasted...

Ant, your talking about the Vantage that has a DBRS9 (thats the race engine) shoe horned into it. Auto blog had some photo's of it up on wednesday.

If its true it would be a sexual experience to drive that.

Like I said, not sure of any details past what I wrote but I have it on very good authority from someone who was there that the very car was unveiled in front of them...so I'd take it that it is no rumour

Unreal! Not a fan of the tail lights though, or the rims.

I want a vantage
