![]() ![]() The driver must have missed Sr. Bridget’s 2nd grade punctuation lesson, that went something like, “Drop the ‘e’ and add ‘ing’”.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I’m not that familiar with the more modern models, but this one really caught my eye favorably. Obviously a turbo and a cabrio, but what’s the model - 991? 991? And what approx year? And I thought all center-locks were GT3’s...

It's a 997.2 Turbo. Probably a 2010, based on the interior and center locks. in 2010 a manual transmission was rare. Way to go dude.

Looks like a 991.
I got to take a non turbo for two days. Great GT car. |

What a shame with the curb rash on the wheel!
![]() But guessing if he/she can afford the car they can afford to fix the wheel. It is a very attractive car. |

Thanks. To be clear, not mine. But I am drooling at a modern 911...

I believe most of the more modern 911 GTSs come with centerlocks as well. I seem to remember reading something on the local PCA facebook site where a guy was trying to find (I think) a GTS with regular 5 lug wheels, but was having a problem because 5-lug was optional and centerlock was standard or something like that.
Centerlock is cool, but I'm not sure how practical it is for a person that would even want to pull their own wheels. I'm guessing that the nut goes on at a bit more than 96lbft.

![]() Need to use the factory torque multiplier. Dealers got it with the special tool allocation for the Carrera GT. As I recall, the Carrera GT came with one in the trunk. |

My favorite modern plane. I have 1.5 hours moving the sticks.
My company has made parts for that aircraft.
