    Been enjoying the 991.2 so much like the 3.0 twin turbo motor, that I contacted Porsche Melbourne to order a 992 T as this ticks the boxes for me, light, 6-speed manual, no rear seats,LSD , shorter gears ...No luck allocation taken .

    Went to another dealer they have a canceled order (the client moving interstate, and can't register in another State !

    Delivery May and my choice of color and specs nearly signed up and then thought, just didn't warrant the changeover cost.

    I'll wait till the 992.2 comes out and with a similar package -Be an ideal car for GG.GAD etc

    I like the idea of buying a 997 and upgrading like this car for GG/GAD/GHAB/Tassie runs .

    Why not just get it over and done with in one foul swoop and buy a Mondial?

    They're already sorted for events like you list above from the get go.

    I reckon that series is the best looking modern 911.

    It makes a lot of sense, as air-cooled cars are way too expensive

    First saw one of those in Targa 1996, driven by Jim Richards. He supposedly spent $80K on it before it turned a wheel and boy, it was fast. I spoke to his Nav, and then shut the door for him - it was so light, I nearly fell over when I overbalanced pushing on it.
