AND as Hamann says buy a porsche for performance. Folks I have both and the 997 definitely gets the nod. Yes, the MCS is a great car in the corners and but there's nothing like the feel of taking a 911 out of a corner. The cornering of the 911 is nothing to sneeze at either. The 997 picture included is delivery day and things don't get much better (delivery of the MCSC JCW was a close second).



Both are excellent cars. My MCSC JCW will be posted in the marketplace and ebay in the coming week.
looks good

i think flat black should look quite nice with your car too, although the bronze isn't bad, but alittle japanese feel i guess?
