Hi, Anyone driven or is an owner of a 991 cabriolet. Was thinking of getting a XKRS for the wife and a good friend of myself told me to look out for a 991. Any feedback ? This would be our first Porsche if we do buy one. I always love the 997 twin turbo and 997c4s.
Owner of a 991 6 speed for about 3 months -- 3500 miles later I absolutely love it. My favorite 911 yet, very good sports car feel AND comfortable tourer, more GT than before perhaps but still very fun.
My wife and i got this two weeks ago. She absolutley loves driving it. Her only question is WHY did we wait so long to buy a Porsche 911. Image Unavailable, Please Login
i bought a 991 911s cab around one year ago. so far i have logged 4K miles. love it love it love it! the pdk tranny shifts much smoother than the dual clutch on my 458.
My wife is crazy about the white with red top like in this Ad... What a sweet car ! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IgWc4XykWw]2013 Porsche 911 991 Cabriolet HD Best Car Commercial Carjam TV HD Car TV Show 2013 - YouTube[/ame]
Thanks we were vacationing in Palm Springs when we picked up the car. The shot really appealed to me. Britt

Sweet! Great car terrific photos. I too like the PDK. The "boom" on the upshifts and the rev matching and "burble" on downshifts. I can't stand it anymore, I'm going for a drive! Britt
britt: you might want to installing the tubi exhaust on your 991. much nicer sound than the porsche sport exhaust, imho. and almost the same price.
Hey Joel.... Fortunately/unfortunately my car came equipped with the Porsche sport exhaust. I have always liked the Tubi exhaust for the Ferraris. On the plus side I took the car to the ski resort today a 90 mile round trip. On the straight and narrow i used the stock mode, but on the twisty mountain sections I hit the sport button. Kind of the best of both worlds. By the way the skiing was excellent. What a great car. I am sure you have the same smile as I do every time you drive it! Britt
britt: i would not consider swapping out the sport exhaust for the tubi. with the bypass valves open, the tubi sounds a bit louder and richer than the sport, but that is just my opinion. when the valves are closed, there is no apparent difference in the sound. unfortunately, the tubi doesn't offer the dash mounted switch to manually open the bypass valves. in this respect, the sport exhaust has an advantage. i do love driving the car. the 991 is actually my wife's car; sometimes we have to fight over who gets to use it!
