Soon I'll be coming home to animal kingdom. Almost got another GS puppy the other day...would have been the perfect segue.

Getting the first one was easy - 2nd is going to take a little persuasion. Animals are typically the quickest route...and what I did to get my first one (beings that I now have a cat - named Portia).

Been eying this one for the last month, just haven't pulled the trigger on calling. This would replace the M4 as my daily (same - only do a few hundred miles / month), and think the AWD would be better suited for winter.

Of course, need to convince the Mrs. That's the hard part.
Paying for it is easy. Convincing the wife this is necessary is the challenge.

Yet somehow she doesn’t have a problem adding to her shoe, purse & jewelry collection to rival Imelda Marcos.

The sound, the rawness, the size/looks, handling is just amazing.
It is my DD though but I only put about 300-350 miles per month on it.
PDK or manual? I have a new to me 991.1 C4S and still find my E86 M Coupe far more raw. I went PDK for various reasons so I miss the engagement (no pun) of a manual (like my E86) but still.

The 991.1 does sound awesome at 4k and I pove the bark on startup. Could use some Soul headers but at $5k.
