Ebized Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 H'mmm "Today, Porsche built the 1,000,000th example of the most iconic sports car ever: the 911. Modeled after one of the first 911s ever built—and Ferdinand “Ferry†Porsche’s personal company car—the Irish Green Carrera S packs many parts from Porsche’s Exclusive options portfolio as well as bespoke parts designed to bring it as close to the original as possible. After a global tour and drives in the United States, at the Nürburgring, and elsewhere, it will take up permanent residence at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart." And it's a left hooker Hugh so wave goodbye to that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Now watch those options like the wooden wheel become Exclusive options. /cynical Not a bad spec, but the green is a bit of an odd choice. Trouble is I suspect the first one was either silver or cream, neither of which is exactly special enough to celebrate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a google as i'm not working very hard today turns out it was aluminium/silver, so good shout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie-Boy Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I love the look of 911s, but it has to be those early to mid eighties ones. When I think of a 911, I imagine a D reg Guards Red 911 Turbo. When I was choosing which car to buy this time around, I did spend some time looking at what can be bought in a 911 for sub 12k. Did give it some thought and figured you probably need to spend a fair bit more to have a proper 911 experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 911 has never really floated my boat Same here, in fact I used to detest them ! That was until I spent several days in a GT2 travelling across Europe and hitting up a couple of tracks... Amazing sports cars. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docwra Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 911 has never really floated my boat +1, can totally appreciate the engineering and stuff (particularly when they are flying past you at Nur) but just find them a bit weird to drive.

Exactly , right , they are impressive bits of kit for sure and i like the way they are put together , I even quite like the look of some models but they really aren't a car I'd ever aspire to own 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I explained that when your a young lad growing up you often have pictures of super cars on your bedroom walls and a lot of kids have pictures of 911 turbos on their walls. My missus replied "oh, did you have one on your wall when you were a kid?". "No" I replied, I never liked them I had pictures of Ferraris up instead". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
