Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
I don't do test-drives unless I'm actually seriously looking to buy - I'm quite impulsive (the missus will testify; she went on holiday once to a Golf GTI on the drive and returned to a bright yellow 350Z, never mind her shock when a brand new £2k piano turned up last year while I was out at work

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I've still not seen one in the flesh but the more pics I see of the Sport Classic the more I love it.
Hi all
Maybe you will be interested, I certainly was, to see what turned up at my office today!
I have never seen one in the flesh "before and although I was not when I saw the press pics I sure am now SURE it looks awesome up close!
Enjoy!
I saw one in my OPC when i was in for a service.
LUSH, really nice. wheels especially stunning, whole interior is a delight.
But..... would you really get this over a turbo s?
:evil:
Yes and no
Yes on the grounds of re-sale and exclusivity
No on Value for Money
looks fab though, can not wait to hear it start up, is it loaded then usual? I would hope so!
I've still not seen one in the flesh but the more pics I see of the Sport Classic the more I love it.
Price = big no-no but it
looks
utterly fantastic, it's pretty much a Porsche you buy with your heart rather than with your head, and I don't think you could say that about many 911s in the last 20 years or so... :cloud9:
Buy a C4S + X51 + PSE and add Fuchs/Duck tail/Front Apron/Rear PU/SportsClassic exhaust tips.
I have it in Rivi. Thanks.
You won't get the brown woven (?) leather interior though.
You won't get the dials. :sad:
No double-bubble if you DIY. However, DIY = no six-figures either.
You could buy a C4S and spend £200k on it but it
still
won't
be
a Sport Classic and you know it. Face it, we're all suckers for whatever Porsche / Porsche GB try and sting us for, we just can't afford one... :sad:
Well if my next car isn't a GT3, it will be a SportClassic-alike.
I promise I won't badge it up though :wink:
The looks will be 99% (except roof) and the performance will be the same (except 4WD drive train).
Technically, my statement was incorrect.
It should say "next Porsche".
My "next car" may be an MB.
PS - have you driven the V8 Vantage?
PM anotherGT2 and uuf361 to save yourself the grief.
Oh, I know, I know - I've seen the posts on here, on Pistonheads and on numerous other forums, but to be honest I potter around in the 996 about 95% of the time and I figure I might as well do that in something that looks (and sounds) like the Vantage than anything else, it can't be
that
bad a drive.
I don't do test-drives unless I'm actually seriously looking to buy - I'm quite impulsive (the missus will testify; she went on holiday once to a Golf GTI on the drive and returned to a bright yellow 350Z, never mind her shock when a brand new £2k piano turned up last year while I was out at work
), if I drove a Vantage this weekend it would be on the drive next week... :roll:
