Haha first thing I did when setting up the all the personal settings was check the car's max g readings. That's awesome that you live in Stuttgart! I need to visit someday.

I'm using it as a daily driver whenever I'm back in Cali, but want to go to Porsche driving school before I track it. Maybe after my lease term is up and the residual has already been paid for.

Thanks again for all the kind wishes guys!

I like the "911" emblem in place of 911 Carrera S . . .

I'm surprised you still want to keep the Z after purchasing a 991

Well as I said, I do need two cars as I am living in two different states. Traveling between the two very very often (for work). Either way it will be sold before the residual is due, or once I can settle down in a single city (which won't be anytime soon). Oh and the Z is already paid for, so I'm not loosing that much money sitting on the Z.
But yes I agree on the '911' instead of the '911 carrera s' which is just way too much writing. I would prefer 911 S though, maybe I'll remove the emblems and redo them.

It looks like you've been driving AWD cars , but now you just have rwd. Do you miss that awd grip/handling, or is it just much nicer having the agility and precision of the throttle/rear end ? . .

I absolutely love RWD for the street. It's much more intuitive. Not to mention I love ruining my tires by getting on the throttle mid turn with traction off . And I feel like the dive in through turns is more sharp in RWD setups (from what I've experienced). That being said, I feel a bit safer in AWD setups on the street, and could imagine feeling even safer in a Carrera 4S, knowing that if I mess up the car will fix my mistakes. But the Evo n STi I had were so different from the Z. I had my real fun in those on sand, not on the street. I have actually never driven an AWD sports car (rally cars are not sport cars..) so I can't comment on the difference too much. Perhaps I need to test drive a C4S when they get to the dealers to really see the difference.

Oh and my other option I was choosing from was the GTR!
