ANF Posted 4October, 2016 Report Share Posted 4October, 2016 For now, build a mental Group 4 Rallye 924.With no license for almost 7 more months I'm in no rush so I'll chip away at that while keeping an eye out for something interesting. Ah, yes I remember your 924 now Good luck with both! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrevMcRev Posted 4October, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 4October, 2016 congrats mate - good cars like yours move fastCheers mate. Certainly interesting when many a 996 sit for sometimes several months even at $10k-$20k less...and some C4S don't seem to move at even the same money....It might not have gone up like aircooled or GT cars, but 4 and half years and less than Zero depreciation is not bad going. Actually given I bought from a dealer as On the Road to get the same back for a private sale is good going.She was a fantastic car, a pleasure to own and a dream to drive. I'd highly recommend one to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did extremely well on the sale. It's staying pretty local, Glen Waverley based, and Porsche Club Vic member so likely it'll be around.I might have to take you up on that!

DJM Posted 4October, 2016 Report Share Posted 4October, 2016 I know Hugh and SteveP tried to dupe you into GT3 love. But I reckon your TD996 plates would look just nice on a silver GT2....Next SMT I'll take you for a ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smit2100 Posted 6October, 2016 Report Share Posted 6October, 2016 That car is by far the quickest car I've ever been in. Add this to Doug being a very good pilot and your in for a real treat. Too modest DJM. +1 one on the quickest car I've ever been. +2 on the pilot comment. Besides being in a rally car, best piece of road driving I have experienced was on a little stretch of very familiar road that if you are a boost junky, torque steer is not uncommon if your car is capable of delivering that, but the amount of torque steer that DJM was able to squeeze out of his car and his ability to control it by applying more throttle whilst rowing through the gears and navigating a rock wall on one side and a steel barrier on the other side and effortlessly pulling up with not a peep out of the brakes or chassis was pretty memorable. So much so that I went and brought the next best thing to his GT2 on a restricted budget (with a little more driver assist in terms of awd) shortly afterwards and I am slowly chipping away at replicating the boost hit in his car somewhat (only another 0.3 or so bar to go), but also looking to move the boost curve a bit more to the left with a bit more earlier spool up and a little less torque down low but having a similar peak power output.(torque was brutal and the spool up of those k24 based turbo's driving traffic light to traffic wouldn't do my demerit points any favours in order to get my boost fix) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM Posted 6October, 2016 Report Share Posted 6October, 2016 Haha, thanks Tony. My RX7 is quicker than the GT2 believe it or not, recently did 1:45 at PI vs 1:47 in the GT2. Having said that, there's a lot less at stake so easier to push harder. Somewhere north of 450hp and under 1,000kg. Catching a hard driven 458 was the highlight of the day, ran out of fuel before I could pass him....around 3:40 you can see the difference to a 997 C2S. Followed by an M2. Anyway, enough about me, this was Trev's thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
