The one-millionth 911 rolls off the production line

[NazMan]

It has to be on every petrolheads bucket list, to own an iconic 911!

 

[Willsy1980]

Will probably sell for £1m too

H'mmm

"Today, Porsche built the 1,000,000th example of the most iconic sports car ever: the 911. Modeled after one of the first 911s ever built—and Ferdinand “Ferry†Porsche’s personal company car—the Irish Green Carrera S packs many parts from Porsche’s Exclusive options portfolio as well as bespoke parts designed to bring it as close to the original as possible. After a global tour and drives in the United States, at the Nürburgring, and elsewhere, it will take up permanent residence at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart."

 

 

And it's a left hooker Hugh so wave goodbye to that one

I'm not keen on green cars so I'll give that one a swerve anyway ...

[GMballistic]

Moved.

[LRF4N]

A million cars and they all look the same, impressive........

[davey_83]

Struck gold from get go I guess

[Ekona]

Now watch those options like the wooden wheel become Exclusive options. /cynical

 

Not a bad spec, but the green is a bit of an odd choice. Trouble is I suspect the first one was either silver or cream, neither of which is exactly special enough to celebrate.

911 has never really floated my boat

After a google as i'm not working very hard today turns out it was aluminium/silver, so good shout.

[Ekona]

I think that probably says more about me as a saddo than anything else

[Jay84]

I was sad enough to google it, so no comment your honour.

[Ekona]

We're peas in a pod mate!

Me neither..... until I got my 997 turbo.

[ATTAK Z]

Moved.

 

It moved me too !

[Stevie-Boy]

I love the look of 911s, but it has to be those early to mid eighties ones. When I think of a 911, I imagine a D reg Guards Red 911 Turbo.

 

When I was choosing which car to buy this time around, I did spend some time looking at what can be bought in a 911 for sub 12k. Did give it some thought and figured you probably need to spend a fair bit more to have a proper 911 experience.

Same here, in fact I used to detest them !

That was until I spent several days in a GT2 travelling across Europe and hitting up a couple of tracks...

 

Amazing sports cars.

+1, can totally appreciate the engineering and stuff (particularly when they are flying past you at Nur) but just find them a bit weird to drive. Cayman FTW anyday

Exactly , right , they are impressive bits of kit for sure and i like the way they are put together , I even quite like the look of some models but they really aren't a car I'd ever aspire to own

Reminds me of when I first got my 911, I took the missus out for a spin and she asked why everyone was staring and looking at my car. I explained that when your a young lad growing up you often have pictures of super cars on your bedroom walls and a lot of kids have pictures of 911 turbos on their walls. My missus replied "oh, did you have one on your wall when you were a kid?". "No" I replied, I never liked them I had pictures of Ferraris up instead".

I hated 911s until I drove one. Then I pretty much knew I wanted nothing else.

[sipar69]

There's a new Turbo S near us. It does look very nice.

....which explains why your now driving a 6 series

[Ekona]

*you're

 

But yeah, I wish I could've afforded to keep my old one and buy the new house. I'll never forgive the wife for making give up my one true love!
