Not as much as if you changed your GTS for a 991 GT3 obviously.

Very nice place to be - comfy once you use the 14 seat position thingy to get it right - always takes me ages.

Sat nav and bluetooth and whole infotainment system is easy to use, love the pod on the speedo where you can access the menu - brilliant feature.
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.

Very nice indeed, I was looking at one last week and was really impressed.
I wasn't too sure about the wheels when I saw the online and magazine pictures but in the flesh I think they suit the car, with the period touches to the interior I think this a lovely 911.
Congratulations

Gorgeous. I love these. First one I ever saw made me genuinely question whether to keep my GTS. Still debating.
No no no no no!...
Don't change your wonderful GTS for one of these.......you will regret it for ever trust me!.....

I know, you're right, I'm in no rush to change. Congrats OP, is a lovely looking car.

GTS much better looking, and holding values very well.
I have just bought one from Sheffield OPC!! mine is grey but with the same interior . love it and just need to arrange the next European tour . first 991 for me . will be used as a every day car doing about 8000 miles a year .

I nearly fell off my chair when I read your post! Even more so as we live in Sheffield.
My son is on here as chriscoates and when I saw your name, I thought " I didn't know he was buying this!"
I have just bought a mint 996 Turbo, so am always looking on the 911 threads.
Good choice by the way.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I am enjoying mine.

Must have been your car I saw outside on the Macan night
You'll have to put some pictures of it up - loving this car, there's a black one at 555 in Oakham 5 miles down the road,if someone buys that then there's the set!
(still mystified at the negativity over the 991 generation by some but each to his own)

I wasn't planning on upgrading my 991 Carrera S but I couldn't resist this when I saw it in the showroom so here it is.
Very nice..! I have a grey one, on loan from Porsche Bristol while my GT3 gets a new engine..!
I love it, the colour is stunning, lots of detail changes from a standard 991 C2S....will be difficult handing it back..!
Really like these. There was a new one at Swindon last week waiting for its new owner, the matt black on the wheels is a real winner. I might yet go for one over a C4S next year, (if there are any left, which I doubt).

My moneys on the 991 GTS probably being the better car (power upgrade standard as well)......
What colour have you gone for, personally I think the standard power output is perfectly sufficient, you may as well buy a GT3 if that sort of thing is important to you when you look at the cost. The best thing about this over the standard Carrea S is the PASM - the differenece that makes on a rough arsed Uk country road is way more than a few HP's
It's graphite grey:
Driving impressions:
Very nice place to be - comfy once you use the 14 seat position thingy to get it right - always takes me ages.
Glass roof is amazing
Interior very special in the 50th Anniversary guise and huge upgrade from my old 997.
Steering wheel lovely with the paddles and deviated anniversary stitching.
PDK is lightening quick - especially on downshifts but lacks much feel or the extroverted nature of an exotic.
Sports exhaust lovely - overrun is great in 1st and second.
Brakes are lovely with great feel.
Power - more than enough and has a characterful engine which i am sure will be even nicer as it loosens up.
Steering is very light at low speeds - i have power steering plus which makes it even lighter but it weights up nicely at speed and has more than enough feel.
Sat nav and bluetooth and whole infotainment system is easy to use, love the pod on the speedo where you can access the menu - brilliant feature.
Looks incredible - paint is unique and very special, got a load of admiring looks parked up in W London.
Happy camper !

The power of a great piece of design ...
But it's the interior that I think is particularly nice !
The DTC is nice, but if they offered one of the retro tartans I might not be able to help myself.

In US powerkit standard.
Shame that the uk model is not power kitted that could have made it way more value 2nd hand later in it's life.
I looked at a black version but part of the attraction is the unique colours of the 50th version for me .Its a great place to spend a day driving and you notice all the little details like the rev and speedo counter colours . really really please . have recently come from a 997 gt3 and no concerns about lack of power btw !!!
