Finally got a 911/992

[jeffreybehr]

Have had 3-each Cayenne Turbos and Caymans, but last month I traded my 2023 Cayman GTS for this 911/992.


2022 Cerrara S with many options.. Tires and wheels are off the Cayman GTS--255/35/20 fronts and 295/35x20 rears.. Tires are Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4s.. This is the nicest-driving and -handling car I've ever had...fastest, too, but I've certainly not exercised it much.

Have a small rear spoiler (already in Carmine Red) ready for installation.

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

Awesome car in an awesome color!! Congratulations! Looking forward to your reaction once it's all broken in and you can really get on it. Nothing quite like it.

The Carmine Red is such a great color and it looks stunning on a Carrera! I know this is a subjective thought on my part, but I feel the color is really more dramatic on the larger Carrera over a Cayman. Heh, this is coming from someone with a Cayman, just a personal observation that some colors draw out the lines or the overall look of one model over another.

Glad you are enjoying your new redhead, she is a looker!

I concur, Carmine is a great color on the 992.

Have not seen the Cayman wheels on a 992 before!

Well, actually they're not 'Cayman wheels', but they are aftermarket wheels designed for the Cayman.. These things...tires and wheels...of course cost mucho money, and I saved a bunch by not having to buy new ones for the 911 and also by reinstalling the original Cayman tires and wheels before trading it (plus money, of course) for the 911.. Apparently Porsche won't certify a late-model Porsche if it does not have its original--or some original--tires and wheels.. Being certifiable raises the trade-in value too; for example, I received $106K for it, about what I paid for it 11 months earlier.

Well done! I remember this car and wheel/tire combo from one of your posts on that other forum!
