    Really?

    I think the stock skirts bring the body line down far enough to handle the bumpers. Maybe the rubber molding is throwing it off since the line doesn't continue beyond the rear wheel.

    Thank you. Second best looking generation IMHO. '70-'73 is my favorite, but 911S prices from that generation are astronomical. Even if I could afford one, I would feel bad adding Carrera flares, which I believe they really need.

    Different. The 911 is pretty stock. My M3 was far from it. The M3 was quicker, but would beat you up on the street. Harsh and bouncy. The 911 is far more comfortable, but everything takes more effort (brakes, clutch, steering).

    The 911 feels a lot more relaxed at triple digit speeds.

    I haven't tracked either of them, or driven them hard enough to really speak about handling and dynamics.

    Thank you all for the comments. I have a couple of weeks to enjoy it, and then it is on to a long depressing winter.

    Enjoy it and take care of her. :grin:

    Just adding a pipe to the standard exhaust makes it sound really nice.
