My old man bought a porka 996 on tuesday

[trevkx125]

He traded his old 928 S4 in for a 996 Carrera 4 cabriolet tiptronic s. I took it for a nice litte drive the other night, we swaped about a bit, its dam nice, plush inside and goes pretty well.
It pulls quite nicely after 4k, would like to take it to germany to test the 171mph quoted, its got a few nice bits on it like 182 turbo wheels etc

I thought I would hate the tiptronic box but actually seems quite good, keep it nailed and it will change up as approaching the rev limiter and press the button on the steering wheel for going down (or up, but why change before you have too )

He says mine is a bit too hardcore, and he likes the smooth power delivery of the flat 6 non turbo, so after that I had to annihilate him 8)

Few piccies of the beast :
