Currently thinking of tracking down a NA 991 GTS (probably 4 wheel drive) - might even be a keeper! The more I think about it I think that model is going to be a collectors item in the future. My only regret in the last few years is that I sold my white 991 Gen 1 C4GTS.
I remember, it pained me when you let it go....
Still really happy with my 4GTS, cannot even contemplate where I could go from here. 2 and a half years and still grin every time I get out for a run.
Reckon you (and Simon) will be back :lol:
Good to hear Hedgehog as I await delivery of mine. I loved the drive when I took it out and it seems like a very long 4 months until I get my own!

Hedgehog - I know, still kicking myself. Keep hold of yours it's such an awesome machine.

The hunt goes on!
I know what you mean about the engine sound but I didn't think it was as muted as I expected although there is a fair bit of turbo whistle which I am less keen on. However, I do agree that it is more usable because of the amount of torque on tap.

Good luck with your hunt - maybe wort putting a wanted ad on Pistonheads?

Thanks Simon - I did see those and the white one is very similar to mine. The white one just has too many miles 15k and three owners - I'm looking for something with under 10k and ideally a 1 owner car. I'm not keen on yellow either.

:lol: I like the yellow one the best! :oops:

Also the Carmine Red with the ducktail spoiler. 😎

Best of luck with your search.

And even more luck with your striking gold with a GT3 build slot! 👍

If ordering a new 911 today, I would be quite likely to go yellow 😎
