Newsletter 78 2010 997 Turbo Cabriolet & GT3
2010 started quite slow, with the economic turndown and slow car sales obviously car events were also hold back... so when Gunther Erdmann Manager for Porsche Angelopolis called me asking me if I wanted to shoot a couple of new arrivals, I took my gear and head down to Porsche Angelopolis just to find these two magnificent 2010 Porsches, a 997TT Cab and a brand spanking new 997 GT3 MkII...

... and soon after arrival the photos began...











...let's check them out!!!
The 2010 997TT and GT3 are two magnificent Porsches, tremendous performance, looks and luxury (sportiness in the case of the GT3).

I had a great time doing the photos and enjoying these Porsches in the flesh... until next time...

GT3 and 997TT Cab, mmhhhh...
Simply two magnificent examples...
The new 2010 997 Turbo carries a myriad of improvements everywhere, most noticeable are led lights and PDK gearbox...
Turbo...
PDK...
For 2010 the PDK gearbox makes it into the Turbo... by 2011 all Turbo S models will be PDK only... the way of the future...
Paddles...
The heavily criticized PDK steering wheel buttons are now replaced by correct gear lever paddles behind the steering wheel... nice!!!
Carrera Red cabin...
As always in the Turbo the cabin is full leather in this case in beautiful Carrera Red...
Driver's side...
Driver's side view...

Front...
...undeniable Porsche, don't you think?

...large 6 pot brakes look the part... can I have 'em for my Boxster???
...new front lip looks well integrated... the days of the cheap add on look are behind us...
...GT3 in all black looks the business... I can only imagine this mean machine approaching from behind... whoa!!!
...alcantara steering wheel... well if it was left to me I would put alcantara almost on every part of the interior but the pedals, he, he, he...
...new wing... more down force... less drag... more speed... better cornering... need to say more?
