My 2006 911 C4S 6 speed I bought in late 2017 with 83,000 miles , now has 105,000 miles after just completing a 5,000 mile, 5 week, 5 western US states , 5 National Park journey with my bride of 38 years this past summer 2023.
Living the dream bro 🔥
I keep my car regularity maintained and its almost at 80k miles !
Congratulations man! You won't get tired of it. Don't ever sell it, keep it forever.
I bought a 997.2 Carrera S with no aero kit. Has the same wheels as yours. Love that thing, and love blasting through corners with it.
Same here - mine was the .1 - it's a car for life - (I am 55) my dad has still has his Targa and he is 80!!!
Sweet choice. My research is leading me to believe this is peak pure Porsche. Lots of videos on this please. Comparisons between generations, facelifts, running costs, reliability, fun factor, track days. Keep it up 💯
Thanks! It’s a great generation of car for sure!
IMS bearing is seriously risky. Get a post 2009 one instead, no IMS after that point.
I completely understand why you brought the Porsche, it’s a fantastic looking / sounding motor, absolutely stunning. Congratulations Stef.😊
Thank you so much mate 🙌
Congratulations Stef!! Can’t imagine the feeling you have owning and driving that beauty. Enjoy it and be safe.
Thank you 🙌🙌🙌
Wow,stunning! Thanks for sharing. That exhaust sounds epic too
Happy new car Stef, love it!!!! Can’t wait to see more content ❤
Thank you!!
Stef, you have one of the Best configuration i´ve seen!... just Wow...
Great job Stef - looks insane, huge congratulations! I've been considering these too - let's see...
Cheers dude! Such a great car :)
Congrats sir! I’ve subscribed from day one with your Abarth. You’ve come a long way. Keep it up!
Very well deserved and fantastic car been following you all the way back to your Abarth build.
Thank you!!
Perfect! 997.1 & especially the rarer 997.2 coupe manuals continue to grow in value! The last of the true analog 911
Massive Congrats Stef! Well deserved!
Thank you so much
Great buy. Looks awesome.
Congrats Stef!
Congrats Stef
Hard work pays off.
Well deserved fella
Thank you!
Congratulations! You finally have taken the Porsche Red Pill and will never look at cars the same way again! I have owned a 2006 997.1 Carrera 4S for 14 years now. Purchased with 6k miles, pristine/new condition. 14 yrs later, now it has 95k miles, and I still love it! It still thrills me and looks so good rolling down the road. I have driven the newer Porsches and although they may be faster and feel newer with the latest tech/gadgets, I have yet to be able to justify upgrading for the price difference. The joy to drive versus price of admission is just not there for me to upgrade. I love the 997/987s that much. Great, simple, beautiful cars. Great spec you got. Enjoy in good health!
Congrats Stef. Just bought my first Porsche 4 days ago. It is a 991.1 Carrera S convertible. I have come from a long line of Mercs with the last 2 being a SL500 and a SL 63. There is no comparison to the Porsche. The 997 and 991.1 share the same NA engine so I get the joy of listening to the engine from 6K revs upwards. Enjoy and keep up updated.
The SL63 had 585 BHP but the Porsche is a different level. Power without control is nothing!
Congrats dude! Your personal cars videos always interest me te most.
Thanks man, appreciate it!
Wow,stunning! Thanks for sharing. That exhaust sounds epic too😊
🙌
@@StefABtvslightly biased though as I own a 997GTS in black too.
Congratulations. I test drove a c4s 997.1 on Saturday. I couldn’t believe how heavy the clutch was. The steering was heavy but probably cause I’m use to a m4.
How it got down the road. I completely get why ppl crave them. As I do now. M4 will be going. Who cares about speed n numbers it’s how it feels n drive
That’s it, speed and numbers are one thing but it’s great to have an engaging car that makes you smile!
Congrats! Finally something different by a UA-camr. 997 are well priced and the aero kit looks great!
Thanks! 👍
Amazing spec. Love the 997
Sounds great! what a good example. I did a similar purchase, buying my old boss's 997.1 C4S convertible. "You will have smiles per mile", is what he told me when I bought it.
Man i found you doing Abarth videos couple years back...crazy growth ! Happy for you enjoy the 4S
Well done Stef, looks like a great car. Been a while since I’ve caught up with your channel. Sounds awesome, like a Porsche should. I might be in the market for a “proper” car again soon too!
🙌🙌
997.1 4s is the only Porsche I've driven. It was only a short drive but loved the handling and has a beautiful engine noise
Such a great platform that sounds lovely!
Congrats Stef, you've come a looooong way since ripping the splitter off of your old Abarth in the snow, yeah, I've been around THAT long😇
Mate you are a legend for supporting me that long. Thank you so much!!!
Nice video Stef! Nice car and low mileage too.
I’ve owned my 997 4s for 7 years now. Love the buzz it gives me and all the analogue stuff you mentioned are true. Newer cars are faster for sure but they feel disconnected compared to this generation.
Sadly may have to sell mine soon to pay for some building works but will be back in the market for one as soon as I can afford the next one.
💯
Congratulations Stef. We dipped our toe in 911 water last year. 997.1 C4S cabriolet. Same colour. Great looking car.
Beautiful car Stef ! Enjoy !👍
Thanks man 🙌
Congratulations! I have a basalt black 996 C4S with a factory aero kit too! I absolutely love mine and I can hear it in your voice. It is also my first 911. Enjoy! 👍😎
Very happy for you buddy!! Hope to get my own Porsche some day!
I keep watching this video over and over again! I will get a 997 one day!
Congrats step 👍
Awesome dude, the 997 is my fave Porsche. Killing it
Thanks!
Am now into the 3rd year of Porsche 997.2 ownership , I’m still smiling and like you can’t believe I own such a car . I just love mine. Yours looks very clean , great car. I got a beauty too , same colour . Have fun !
I just bought same one; it’s my dream car. Fully loaded in 06 but it’s everything I wanted. Please keep posting.
Congrats. Treated me the same way with a C2S last month. Brilliant car👌🏻
Great choice 👏
So happy for you matey , stunning car 🙌🙌 see you soon
Defo see you soon mate! Thanks for taking me up to collect it!! 🙌
Been in 997.1 C2S aero kit since 2007. 230k miles still loving it. Cyber truck is on order but Porsche will still be daily driver.
Awesome. Lovely car
Full of character! Well done 👏
Thank you!
this is exactly the one i want, perfect spec
Congratulations on the new car, it looks fantastic. You will probably now always have a Porsche in your life. You need to do one of those movie video's like the Alfa.
Haha yeah. Got the Porsche bug now!
Looks and sounds magnificent!
Thanks!
❤😢😊 that’s one sick 997. That is so sweet. Be fed up take care keep up the good video.
Awesome looking 997 👌
Wow, she looks absolutely Fantastic. I think the 997 is the peak of the modern stuff.
Thanks man, I’m so pleased with it. Love the 997 shape!
I know a guy who has a yellow one. Google search " Bavarian Dominator @ the Review Centre"....Nice Fella!!
What a beautiful car! I'm really happy for you. Enjoy it! 😃😃👍
And of course there will be a video of the trip with this car to the Nürburgring...
Thanks! 😃
Beautiful car. I was in the market for one of these, but a Turbo Tip with 44k miles came up for sale that I couldn't pass up. The manual version of my car was out of my budget but I'm still pinching myself that I have a Turbo 911. If I "need" the manual in the future, this is exactly what I'd get. Subscribed!! Also, I couldn't agree that the 997 shape is by far the best looking 911.
Very nice. Congrats. It looks great. 😃👍
I also have a 997.1 Carrera 4S and I love it. So, I fully understand your feelings
Thanks! 👍
more videos of this car! :) Beautiful
Congrats on the 4S. Saw you at Ace Cafe London a while ago. Good choice.
I have a 997.1 2007 4S manual. It’s my third and I’m planning to keep it to the grave. You made a great choice! Enjoy it.
Amazing, love the aero kit, great spec. I'm on the lookout for a GEN2 but the manuals are hard to find never mind with the aero kit.
🙌🙌
Wow congratulations Stef, I also saw this very same car on auto trader as I was after a 997 4s. The aero kit caught my eye too. Glad you got it! I almost pulled the trigger as well 😂
Thank you! really pleased with it!
Stunning car fella. Whatever generation you want, always just go for the one that’s right when the chance presents itself. My dad looked for ages for his g series, ended up calling into the Porsche centre near to where he was at a meeting in Corby, sales exec showed him a few in stock, including the one he bought - it was stunning condition, and had his dream spec (leather, sports seats in nice colour, good stereo, alarm and immobiliser, whale tail, sunroof etc. The dealer said they’d bring it down to Surrey when they could but he picked it up 3 weeks later when he finished his deal and loved it so much he kept it for 20 years.
Thank you mate. Yeah love this car and it’s perfect for me :)
Funny enough I have the 997.1 C2 and I bought the Arbath 595 Turismo after watching your channel. They are both amazing cars, I love both cars as they put smile on my face every time I drive them 😂
Well done enjoy, the 4s is a great car.
Just catching up on my UA-cam Auto creators. Congrats Stef!
Enjoy your car, she is beautiful.
My favorite 911...
Stunning car and spec mate, congratulations 👌
Thanks bud! Really happy with it :) 🙌
Got one of these - had a 4.3 conversion with forged pistons and rods and Nikasil liners. Stupidly fast now, love it.
Bloody stunning
Thank you!!
Congratulations Stef🎉👍🇦🇺
Cheers mate!
Congratulations! It's a great choice.
Thank you!
I bought a 2006 C2S about 12 months ago. Threw the PASM away straight away and had her dialled in on KW V3s. Took it straight to the Nurburgring after that and haven't looked back. Such a great car! mine is Balsalt Black also. Great choice!
Must be great on kw’s! Thank you! 🙏
Great spec!
Congratulations Stef. That’s my dream too; a manual 911. I currently drive an Abarth 500 Esse Esse with Record Monza Exhaust in Red with white accents.
awesome congratulations 👏
997s are really great cars! Will go down as one of the best 911s, but what makes it truly special is that it rescued Porsche from the 996. Had a 2006 S & loved it. Now have a 997.2 4S, my dream car.
Love it!
Lovely car I had 2 997s really miss the older cars the newer models do not have the same heart
i had the same car but with auto box back in 2006 with same aero kit. white paint with black interior red stitching's and transmission tunnel was white and seat backs white like exterior color. congrats man excellent choice.
Very pleased for you Stef
Thank you 🙏
Congratulations mate on yiur new car looks sick
Thank you 🙌
Many happy miles and smiles
Thank you!
Nice car. I bought a 991 C2 which is fab as it’s simple and modern tech.
I would love to get a more noisy S model soon.
Kudos. A prime example of pure driving pleasure ;-)
Congratulations! I echo your excitement for the 997.1 as well. I bought my 2007 997.1 CS2 in 2021 and absolutely love it. The 997.1 is truly becoming a Porsche classic and will only go up in value. What year is your 4S?
lovely looking cars
Love them :)
i am sat here smiling every time i hear that exhaust, congrats another ticked box in life.
Congratulations. Looking forward to your M3 Touring impressions.
Coming soon!
Great video. Enjoy the car!
Thank you!!!
Looks great
Love it. I have a 991 4s. Nothing like a 911 - any of them. Enjoy 🎉
Great looking car. Omg the soundtrack. Always thought Porsches sounded like a bag of nails.... This one has changed my mind. Great vid good on you

Beautiful car my dream to own a 911 like this one day 👍
Such a pretty car, I’m looking for one at the moment, but it will be my daily, so may be a 991 4S. Coming out of a C7.5 RS6, I so need to scratch that 911 itch!
You will love it!
Very very nice, good choice.
Thanks!
like the manual transmission 👌👌
Just wow, for me, red is my colour, but in this colour and spec, love it keep ya lambos etc, Porsche 911 everytime for me
