Should have got the Turbo first!
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 Turbo 2dr Coupe AWD (3.6L 6cyl Turbo 6M)
Review
Bought a nice '07 C2S and only had it for a couple months before getting the Turbo. Night and day! This car has it all...comfort, tons of power and the looks to go with. Mine has the tiptronic transmission and you can find a lot of good and bad reviews about it. For me since I don't track the car I am ok with it. Put it in sport mode and let the fun begin!
Favorite Features
The power is addicting and the car is SOOOO easy to drive fast. You must choose your sprints very carefully or I am sure trouble will find you! The stereo (13 speaker Bose) is also very good.
Suggested Improvements
For an '07 car, it should have had an I-pod connection. The NAV/PCM is a bit confusing and the booklet is thicker than the owners manual! These are minor nit picks though. I love this car.

2007 carmon red c2s (3.8L, 6 sp)
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 Carrera S 2dr Coupe (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review
I've owned this for about a year now. It's still a thrill every time I get into it. Every drive is an event. I live in an area with a lot of twistys. I can't get enough of them. This is my first real sports car. I've driven a lot of sports cars but nothing compares to this. Prior to this, I owned 1996 4-runner with a 4 cyl engine! I can't see myself driving anything other than a Porsche from now own. I'm trying to convince my wife into getting the Panamera as a "family car" :). I average only 18 MPG mainly because the exhaust note is intoxicating above 4000 rpms that you repeatedly max out revs before each shift change. I guess if I didn't do that, I would get better mileage. But who cares.
Favorite Features
Driving experience, exhaust note, shifter, comfort for daily driving.
Suggested Improvements
ipod, iphone adapter, bluetooth (available in the 2009 model).

World's Best Sports Car, Red C4S Cabrio
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 2dr Convertible AWD (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review
I have 8400 miles on it. No complaints, have run the car at Laguna Seca and Infinion Raceways. Powers out of curves like no other car in existence. Needs Michelin Cup tires instead of PS2 for track days. Most fun I've ever had driving a car, build quality the best. Ordered 22 options, which are expensive, but this is my last purchase for retirement so thought it worth it.
Favorite Features
4 WD, sound from sport exhaust, babe magnet.
Suggested Improvements
Needs an iPod input which will appear in the 2009 models. Forget the navigation system, it will be outmoded in 6 months and is complicated. Get a portable Magellan or Garmin GPS, and definitely a Valentine One radar detector!

Yellow C4 Cab
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 2dr Convertible AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
Review
I just bought this car a week ago after owning 4 other 911's. This is my 1st C4. Add ons: 20' Champion wheels, Aero kit, suspension. The AWD is worth the money. I live in a mountain community with a lot of winding roads. The car handles great. Definite improvements since 2005.
Favorite Features
AWD, wheels.
Suggested Improvements
None at this time. I need a little more time.

Still a piece of Fine Art

Sold an Audi RS4 to get back to a 911. Still the most fun there is for driving. May not be the fastest but by far the most fun. I hope it is my final buy b4 retirement.

C4S over Turbo
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 2dr Coupe AWD (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review
The balance of this car is marvelous. This is my 3rd Porsche and is the best. I had a 996 Turbo, but you couldn't drive it slow, as you were always in the turbo. I've never felt so connected with a car and in complete control. The build quality is unequaled. Fit and finish are typical German quality.
Favorite Features
Sport shifter, phenomenal brakes (even without PCCB) stainless exhaust note, ability to switch to sport mode
Suggested Improvements
Find a way (if possible) to reduce brake dust.

Should have bought one long ago
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 Targa 4S 2dr Coupe AWD (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review
Coming off a 06' SL, I can't tell you what a world of difference in quality this car has over the SL. Obviously totally different vehicles, but this car is fun in every drive scenario. Almost everyday I get interesting looks and comments. The new Bloodlines commercial has recently caused two episodes where I was asked to give it a rev! Heading to Porsche Driving School in B-Ham this fall with friends for golf and driving.
Favorite Features
Acceleration and control with the manual. There was a reason I like to drive my X3 winter car over the SL. It is manual too.
Suggested Improvements
Nothing yet!

2007 Porsche 911 GT3
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 GT3 2dr Coupe (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
Review
I recently traded my '06 Z06 for an '07 GT3. Best decision I have ever made. The Z06 is extremely fast, has awesome brakes and is one of my favorite cars that I have owned. Why trade in a car that I was perfectly happy with? While the Z06 is like being strapped into a massive rocket, the GT3 is like every limb having its' own individual rocket. The connectivity to the GT3 is unbelievable. The response to every input is precise and right now. The "bang for your buck" argument of the Z06 is a lost one if you can afford a GT3. It is WAY more fun to drive and has a TON more character and refinement - crisp feel of the shifter, the rapid revs, and the absence of the "bath tub" feel set it apart
Favorite Features
Awesome power. Great soundtrack. Precise handling and braking. Ritz Carlton parking spot. Common sense delete.
Suggested Improvements
i-pod integration storage compartments in the seatless area behind front seats

Great Ride
Vehicle
2007 Porsche 911 GT3 2dr Coupe (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
Review
GT3 is a one of the all time great rides. Drove 16 hrs down the east coast as snow was soon arriving, got 26 mpg, no tickets, it's 70 degrees. GT3 is built like a vault. Everything works flawlessly. Exhaust note is exceptional when you want it, and quiet when you don't. The least conspicuous supercar made but still gets tons of looks and comments, along with cell phone picture taking. The ceramic brakes are remarkable often the standard in braking comparisons. 3000 perfect miles since August.
Favorite Features
Handling, engine, acceleration, efficiency, brakes, tires, driving position, interior, ergonomics, exclusivity, performance for the dollar. Stereo, rain sensitive wipers, dimming mirrors, midnight blue paint, michelins, suspension, steering, taco spoiler.
Suggested Improvements
Install larger gas tank, option of tires with more tread, not just CUP tires. Need 6 disc or up to date technology stereo with hard drive! Dedicated navigation system, not controller for stereo, climate system. Brake calipers in different colors. Delete sunroof option. Spare tire, jack?
