Well, having been reading here for a while, I'm about to pull a trigger on the 997 (mk2) C2S. Initially I was aiming for a GT3 but it would likely be parked more than driven, given our road conditions here in Bangkok.
Ideally, I'd like a used 911 (993 or 996), but due to some strange preferences here, all the offers I've seen from 993 onwards are in Tiptronic, or in strange color combo like yellow exterior & red interior. :roll:
So the next best thing, for me, is the new C2S (6MT), it has good fuel economy and 100hp/Liter! What I have in mind is:
- Carrara White
- Black leather interior, red stitching
- Carbon interior package
- Sport Chrono
- LSD
- Sport seats
- Multi-function steering wheel
- Auto-dimming mirrors
- iPod connection
- Classic alloys, painted red
- 'Carrera S' side decals in red
- NO rear wiper :mrgreen:
Is there anything else I'd missed, or should considered? Please feel free to suggest and give your inputs. I'm not planning to track it more than 2-3 times / year. The red alloys (rather subjective matter) and decals are relatively reversible should I decide to tone down the look of the car. For now, I really like to mimic the 70s look.
Thanks.
