Nice, honest review Mark! I like the last part of the video where you list the pros and cons of owning this car. Especially your tip about the pipe hack. Especial shout out to little Zara 🤩
Nice review! I have an 07S cab and I love it. You’re right- my son has now grown too big for the rear seat, but it’s still nice having the extra space back there. Enjoy your GT3!
@@mabedfo It’s not so much as how old till they can’t fit anymore, but how tall really…once my son got to around five foot six or five seven, it’s just uncomfortable cause there’s not enough leg room. I’d say around 11 or 12 and that’s it. If you’re under 5’7”, you can squeeze back there no matter what age.
Nice video! I picked up a 2006 Carrera S in July. Congrats on the GT3!! Probably the ultimate weekend toy. Can we expect to see a similar review of it?
Thanks mate. Great car you have there. I plan to do a 997 Carrera S vs GT3 comparison video soon, as I have not seen one anywhere on TH-cam comparing these 2 cars. Hope you enjoy it when its complete.
Don't worry about the kids later. -- They do their own business. You will have plenty room in your car. 😋👍🏼 Thanks for the review. I will go and buy mine on next weekend. You mentioned, it isn't a real sportscar. A GT3 would be funny here in Germany on the Autobahn, but what do you do with the power in Australia? Can you use the extra power over the cab?
Nice review! But watch out, your oil is overfilled though (shows on your cluster screen at 7:44). It should be filled to between the 2 arrows (keeping the small upmost rectange empty)
Nice video although just wondering yours is a 997 MK I and to me they have a 3.6 liters 345 bhp while you described on the screen with 380 bhp. I own a 997 Carrera S that just like you I love and enjoy, but it is a 911 S MK II year 2011 and this one has 3.8 liters Direct Fuel Injection with 385 bhp so I am getting confused on what you have…has it been modified ? Anyway keep on enjoying it, this a great car to drive…stay safe ! Al 😉😃
Hi maybe you should look it up a bit more…here is a video on youtube about the Carrera S MK II maybe you’ll spot the differences and this one really has 385 bhp I have the same one and I almost bought the same as yours except the IMS wasn’t done so I didn’t buy it make sure yours was done maybe you should ask the dealer where you bought it ! th-cam.com/video/BP87I9C78k0/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/erYAkFUV1W0/w-d-xo.html
@@skytrotter6144 I got the numbers straight out of the manual for my 997.1 aka mk1 aka gen 1. The manual covers both the Carrera and Carrera S , all variants.
@@mabedfo Well then as I don’t know what I am talking about after few years having it and servicing it myself like my other cars how about you lecture me on what are the differences between the carrera S 997 MK I and the 997 MK II that would be nice thank you ! 😊
Regarding installing Bluetooth for hands free calling and music streaming for the Porsche CDR-30 radio. these 2 seem to be the best on the market currently: www.discountcarstereo.com/a2diy-cdr30.html www.discountcarstereo.com/cdr30-hf.html
A2DIY-CDR30 employs a Bluetooth remote control to change tracks, answer/reject phone calls etc. Microphone installs to visor, smart usb charger (provides charging current based on device) CDR30-HF employs a push-to-talk button to change tracks, answer/reject phone calls etc. Microphone is built-into push to talk button -- installs on dashboard or attaches to dashboard. 1.5A Max current charging voltage. (may not be enough for charge newer power hungry devices). These are the major differences. They both connect via aux-in on the rear pin-out and not the FM in so have better sound quality, and have a little microphone to install under the instrument cluster for the hands free calling.

Great little review, I’ll watch the GT3 video next 👍
Its coming! just need to find time in my busy life to make it.

I'm interested to hear how old till they don't fit any more?

@@carreralicious thanks, I heard around 11 to 13 depending on your children's height. both my girls are quite short, so probably more like 13 for us.
@@mabedfo Yes, you should be fine for a while as long as they are not too tall. Enjoy while you can!
@@carreralicious The seats for my 997 GT3 arrive in 4 weeks, so we'll see how they fit into a GT3 :)

The guards Red GT3 just arrived! See my next video just posted, so we'll see about the legs! 🦵
Nice video…throw a rock at that fuckin bird! 🤣🤣🤣

Nice details pickup. It was serviced just a few weeks before, so they may have slightly overfilled it.

Hi, it is the Carrera S, hence its 385bhp
