Close-up: My Dream Car, Porsche 997 Turbo

In this blog entry, I'm going to present a "Close-up" of my Dream Car: The Porsche 997 Turbo.  This 2007 Unregistered Showroom Unit is EXACTLY what I dreamed.  Ideal Colour Combination (Metallic Lapis Blue + Dark Beige Leather) + ALMOST FULL SPEC (only thing missing is Carbon Ceramics Brakes).  The Mileage: 28,000 kilometres.  The PRICE:  RM680,000. 


HIGHLIGHTS of the Porsche 911 997 3.6 Turbo:

1) Top speed of 193mph (310km/h)
2) Acceleration in 3.7 secs to 100km/h (62mph) for the Tiptronic. 0-160km/h (100mph) in 9 secs FLAT. 0-200km/h (125km/h) in 11 seconds!!! 60-100km/h (2nd gear) in 1.1 SECONDS!!!
3) While taking the normal 1.0 bar of peak boost to 1.2 bar does not affect the 480bhp that arrives at 6,000rpm, it does add another 60Nm (44 ft-lb) to the already beefy torque curve, resulting in a massive 680Nm (502 ft-lb) on tap between 2,100 and 4,000rpm.

4) Variable ratio power steering
5) 8 speakers BOSE Andio System with Aux Out, CD Changer.
6) Electronic 12 way adjustable with 2 memory LEATHER Seats + Split/fold rear seats.
7) Climate Control
8) The tyres are 235/35ZR19 front and 305/30ZR19 rear on lightweight 8.5J and 11J x 19-inch alloys.

9) Permanant 4-wheel-drive, Flat-6, Twin-scroll turbocharged + VTG (Variable Turbine Geometry) + Overboost (adds 60Nm of torque)
10) 6 Airbags.
11) PSM (Porsche Stability Management) + PTM (Porsche Traction management) + PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management)
12) Electric Sunroof
13) Sports Chrono Package (on the Showroom car)
14) Bi-Xenon Auto Headlights + Cornering feature
15) "0" Blind spot.  Everyday Supercar. 
16) Still managed a Respectable 20mpg averaged.

 There's a saying a picture's worth 1000 words. Without further ado, let's proceed to Photo gallery:

 Above: This showroom unit covered 28000 kilometres only.  Below: ROOF RACK "Slot" Mounting.

Last 4 Photos, I rotated in MSPAINT already.  But when Upload, STILL revert back to Original Form.  I don't understand why...

CONCLUSION:  There are reasons why this is my Dream Car.  Unlike Ferrari and Lamborghini where mileage need to be AS LOW AS POSSIBLE to preserve its value + struggle in City driving, this is an EVERYDAY SUPERCAR.  It's the MOST PRACTICAL Supercar with Double "Boot" (1 in Bonnet and the other behind the front seats - OR fits average size kids under 8 years old).  According to Fifth Gear UK, This car's EASY TO DRIVE AS WELL.  This makes it an ALL-ROUNDER.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SUPERCAR (if you have the money).

SADLY, NO TEST DRIVE.  RM20,000 deposit required before you can test drive.
