Well, one or two of us in 997 Register are in touch with our feminine side, ducky! [8D] []

Oooh you are awful buit I like you.......

Spec,

Sport Chrono plus is the must have. I think cruise control is standard but you need it to save your licence, and in pdk on long runs it gets you bettre fuel economy than you can achieve with the right foot.

As per everyone else's comments - pick the options and colour you like - at trade in they'll gut you what ever you hae bought.

Personally adaptive sports seats are supremley comfortable for long distnace and hold you wll on the nagety bits.

The S is quicker, but not by much so unless its long swoopies or a track you'd be hard poushed to spot the difference.

As per the advice Clive gave me - these ar eonbe hell of a fast machine and without trying you can end up in a corner way faster than you expected or than the corner will cope with. so take it easy early days to get the hang of the beast.[]

I discovered that on the test drive yesterday, Tom; straight road, five vehicles in front doing @ 50mph. Second car started to overtake first car, so I dipped to third and introduced throttle to carpet as I would do in my 3.6; about two seconds later I had to apply the brakes to avoid connecting with the back of the second car mid-overtake. Sat back and thought to myself that an attitude adjustment was in order Still can't believe the pace of it.

You've discovered what my wife like most about the Turbo and it's party trick- overtaking []
It does it easily in the blink of an eye and very safely, nothing worse than half way along and it all going a bit... ermmm limp []

My wife loves how safe and planted the car feels and now makes a great passenger, she also now understands it's overtaking pace which makes it all that much easier when abroad- and she calls whether to go or not!!
