997 Pictures please - forum is lacking some 997 love photos

Thank you! I bought the car a couple of weeks ago and at first wasn’t sure about Basalt black, grey wheels, spacers or the 20mm lowering, but now I love every element. Centre Gravity did a great job I think. :)
The paint work is amazing. I the shade of grey on the wheels too, it's subtle. I've had both my cars CG'd and on both occasions was really pleased. The 997s look SO much better when they're lowered. I just spoke to my insurer and they were cool with lowering provided it wasn't more than 50mm so I'm mentally planning some more mods, maybe tractive suspension and lowering 20mm as it looks so good on your car. :)
Enjoy it
 
I picked up my first 911 last week which is a life dream come true! Still pinching myself. We got well aquatinted with a drive back from Leeds to London. Absolutely over the moon, It drives like a dream and pulls like a train!

Thanks for the kind comments. Three years ago, the previous owner had the paint 'corrected' over the whole car after a front-end respray and then had the paint and wheels ceramic coated.

Lovely car! :) You'll be smiling constantly when driving. Enjoy.
 
I don't think I've ever seen a bad picture of a 997 Turbo, they're such a good looking car, I'd love one but I genuinely have got too many cars and I'd have to sell one.
 
Picture from Fairmile Porsche meet
Amazing shine, looks like glass.
Very brave driving it on the grass with that front lip splitter.

I have my car booked into CG in late Nov for a suspension refresh, Eibach lowering springs, and a full geo. DSC controller will come next year when funds allow…

I'm sure you'll be pleased with it
 
here is my second 911 having had a 997 C2S a few years ago. Always dreamt of one day having a turbo and finally realised the dream.

Found the one I wanted from a great bloke who had looked after it incredibly

Here she is after a first clean by me. Didn’t really need it but you have to do it to get to know them.
