Wait till your trying to reverse in the rain, it's the thing I miss most from my 996 as its very annoying.
I've used mine twice in two days now, so I'm glad it was there.
On that note I'm slightly missing the reverse camera I had on my ISF and the S3 before it, so I need all the help I can get until it becomes 2nd nature. Maybe it's just me, but the Cayman's curvaceous hips make it difficult to line the car up on my driveway
The wiper does look out of place on the 992, but tbh I think the arse on it is a backwards step.

Can you get reverse cameras on a 911? That might be a better compromise for some?I've used mine twice in two days now, so I'm glad it was there.

My 991 has one

What's it like in the rain, does it get all Misty?
I still have a hankering for a 911 so am hopefully going to see this tomorrow - https://www.jzmporsche.com/used-vehicle-details/Porsche-911-U1603/
Thanks, I think it has all of the desirables/must haves, but having never driven a GTS (and only driven a 911 years ago on a track day) I need to start going and looking at different vehicles and see which is right for me!
Looks like a nice one. It's a decent chunk of cash though and you'd get into a manual 997 Turbo for the same money. You're not a million miles off a 997 GT3 either. I guess it depends on what your priorities are. The GTS is probably the nicest/best NA convertible 997 that you can buy.

Seems very overpriced to me... you can get into a 991.1 for that money... my friend picked up a very well specced low mileage 2014 991.1 C4S for similar price
I am also keen to look at this one they have too - https://www.jzmporsche.com/used-vehicle-details/Porsche-911-U1553/
Not a GTS but I’m wondering if a GTS is a bit much for me?

Ok cool, presume it has all the must haves?
