    Hi all from the very north,
    after having two Porsche 911s (carrera and Turbo) and driving them as DD needed a bigger car with "a proper back seat" for the kids to fill in.
    Imported a 2004 612 from the neighboring country Sweden (without a test drive or even seeing the car in real life) this summer. Finland is a small nation and this the second registered 612 in Finland! (the other is 2009 that I have never seen on the streets)

    Love the car! Potent enough even though much slower than Turbo. But also a proper GT giving an excellent ride comfort.
    Only thing missing (perhaps as I do not know whether it fits with a gentleman's car) is an exhaust that sings better at higher revs - suggestions are appreciated.

    here are few pics.

    Cheers,

    Congrats - beautiful car! I thought there d be more of these in Finland - only in Moscow we have some kind of 30 612s 😊

    Your doesnt have any HGTS or HGTC packs thats why doesnt have a loud exhaust ( mine if also too silent ). You can install the exhaust from this pack or choose any aftermarket such as Tubi or Capristo.

    The Ferrari sport exhausts are double-walled. That is usually how you can identify them.

    I have driven both 612 base and HGTS models and the sound is definitely better in the latter.

    Nice to see it finally found a new owner, after 4 years at the dealer!
    Advert back in september 2011 showed 46k km, I assume it haven't changed much?
    Enjoy! :)

    Hi,
    the odometer said circa 47tkm when I bought it. I cruised it quite a lot to get familiar with it during the first weeks. It is actually getting the 50tkm service treatment this week.

    Ak3, do you happen to remember the price tag(in SEK) back in 2011?

    Thanks, Ak3,
    the smaller figure you mentioned was pretty much the agreed price in July.
    dirty cheap! (at least compared to 2011 price) :)

    Great car to choose right now and value for the car that you get with that money is great.
    What kind of cartax are you expecting?
