If you're going to be that sensitive, then don't take these passive aggressive cheapshots at people. I'm not sure how owning a 997 automatically makes someone's opinion on automotive styling more or less worthy, but if that's your opinion, so be it.

I complimented the OP's car with or without the "red S". To each his own, arguing on the internet is silly. Staying on topic, OP nice color choice with your car as well. I'm looking for very specific parameters in my 997 search, so it's taking me a bit longer to find the right one. I would have changed the lobster fork wheels also. I know they are the favorite of a lot of people, but they wouldn't be my first choice of wheel.

Edit: Just noticed the sport seats. Nice!

What else do you have planned for your car?

 

I drove about 10 different 911s and came really close to pulling the trigger on an 05 Slate Grey C2S, but ultimately it wasn't exactly what I wanted. My advice to anyone who is looking for a 997 is to do what you're doing...be really really picky.

The sport seats are miles better than the standard seats. The adaptives are great also, but I like the simplicity and lightness of manual seats...one less thing to break. Just be gentle with the bolsters

Sport Chrono was another thing I really wanted, and the car is much livelier with it. I also was only looking for 6MT.

The one option I didn't know I wanted until I drove one that had it was the Porsche Sport Exhaust. Holy crap that thing is awesome. Can't recommend it enough.

Other planned changes: Clear side markers going on this weekend and then...nothing. I plan on driving and enjoying her for a little while and spending more time on my other 2 projects.
