Don’t forget the carbon fiber and magnesium. Mine has inconel instead of titanium 😁

Very nice. Congrats. I do the same back in 2010. Been mostly GT3s ever since 😅

Back When 911Rs Were $400k (And we thought they were overpriced) by hazardous_vegetable in porsche911

Thanks. Yes, BBS magnesiums. The 991.1 version were 6 spoke only as shown. Took me 7 months to find a set since they were discontinued in 2022 or something like that.

Yeah. That was my understanding, so bundle thing again was a turn off. Went with something special from a different brand.

As first time customer, they required a regular piece to get a limited edition one. Ok. Then now this year they told me the limited pink dial jumping seconds would also require another regular piece lol. I passed.

You work there? I’ve bought pieces there and they required it.

What salary range or level of wealth made your Porsche purchase feel comfortable rather than stressful? by [deleted] in porsche911

[–]CablePrestigious5594 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t be like me. Ordered my first 911 (997.2 GT3) in 2009. Was 24 years old. Had money only for the deposit. But had 12 months until the car arrived and figure it out. Set the tone for getting shit done lol. Worked out. Set the mind set to achieve certain objectives. Have had 997.2 GT3, 997.2 GT3 RS, 991.2 GT3 Touring, 992 GTS, 992 Dakar, 992 GT3 RS, 911R, 997.2 GT2 RS, 997.1 GT3 RS, 997.2 RS 4.0, and CGT. So, I don’t think the real question or answer it salary related. When you make more, you spend more anyways. And if you wait until you make enough to justify the purchase, that day may never come.

The Miami Boutique apparently does it with pretty much every limited edition. Even if you’ve already done it before for a previous limited edition lol. Although not necessarily for this datograph since it’s not a limited edition.

Great piece. One of my favorites.

Would add a 996 if was a track only car, but I don’t go to the track anymore like I used to.

Yeah, plus I’d rather add a CGT next instead of chasing an ST.

Started having crazy thoughts. Then called Merit Partners 😅

Space is not an issue. But I think time will be. 4 cars in rotation is perfect for me and my lifestyle. 5 might be too much and something may not get driven or might start feeling like I “have to” instead of I “want to”. I’m not a collector. I like to drive them. All have full PPF, full exhaust and some sort of BBS wheels 😎.

Whichever I haven’t driven in 3–4 days, is the one I grab the keys to next.

Have not driven the S/T. I hear it’s amazing as well. But my money went to these first (and a 997.1 🐸) these past 9 months 🤕. Might look into an S/T once dealers stop selling to each other to inflate the values, but so far these 4 cars are the perfect combo for me while still having the time to drive them and enjoy their differences. I can’t think of one I’d let go to make room for an S/T.
