That GT3 RS is just gorgeous, I bet it sounds amazing on full chat
I haven’t lowered it- that’s factory spec.
It has the 918 rear wheels....evidently when designing the car the biggest hurdle the engineers faced was working out how to get the wheels to fit !?
The adaptive dampers are fantastic, the ride is nowhere near as harsh as I’d envisioned it would be.....even on crap bumpy local roads the lack of clearance in the wheel arch is seldom a problem - the car is very compliant.

My mate has 2 of these.
At full chat, I was trying to hold on for dear life, the engine noise was merely a small buzz in the back ground!
And he has two other Porsches that are louder and scarier.
0-60 in..... Well, it doesn't actually make it to 60. But I don't care, its yellow. That's the main thing.

Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
Go on then, I'll bite.
What is that?
Tata Nano?
Official figures state 0-100kph in 32s
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
Almost stuck an order in for a grey one today. Waiting for the new S1 instead.....

Relatively cheap and cheerful, but it certainly does the job. First car in 5 years. Lots of boot space for my guns and hiking gear.
New daily driver. It is an absolute beast.
Doesn’t get much use but a hoot to drive when the weathers good

Lots of 911s posted recently, so here is mine parked next to a colleague
So over the summer, I pulled the grill out to swap to an RS - ready for a new intercooler and induction kit
then i'm going to remap and add new suspension
Abarth 595 Trofeo. Bought off my missus after I drove it and loved it. Bought her a Corsa instead.
My JCW (F56) even with variable dampers was awfully firm. Combined with short wheelbase & poor seats had me aching after 30 mins of driving. M4 by comparison is just a joy comfort wise; did a 370 mike round trip this week & felt perfectly fresh at the end.

My wife has an R56 Cooper S (being replaced by something bigger shortly) and I have always found the clutch annoying - heavy with the biting point right at the top which makes for sometimes jerky progress. My daily 997 has a far more progressive clutch that I'm used to.

My Up GTi is now on 900 mile and its flipping brilliant.
If you need the power of 300hp, then don't buy it. Its not about tearing up the tarmac and chasing a Honda Civic or Golf R, it about having max fun and flinging it around.
It is so well made too, it honestly feels like a Golf inside. LED downlighting, heated seats, air con, heated mirrors, and besides my other car is a 400hp Porsche!
buy one! and wait 6 months plus for it to arrive ......
Quite a few members of the hair dressing fraternity in here I see, here's my tools of the trade :wink:

Certainly sounds good!

And
That first pic is one of his garages, well it's a factory with a space for car worship. The other cars are amusingly spread around the place. I stayed with him in May and borrowed a bicycle to nip into the city centre, and found a limited edition Lava Orange 991.2 GT3 RS in the garage at the house.
"What's this?"
"Oh it's only for purchase if you buy a 918"
Another world!
This thread is not helping me..... I sold my fun car (Boxster) when kid number 1 came a long.
Since then we've had a number of Peugeot's as my brother inlaw works for them. We get a stonking deal and a new car every 9-12 months. Currenty we've got a 308 SW GT.
The missus has give approval for a new fun car......
Took this out a couple of weeks ago. I've driven the MK2 Cayman 981, and I'd take the R everytime. Perfect road car. Perfect.

Skoda Kodiaq. It seems to use power as a last resort & feels akin to riding a horse with elastic reins.
