Nice video and new to me - it does sound a lot deeper and more aggressive than standard/996.

Still makes me laugh that no-one on these videos seems capable of pronouncing coupé!!

This black 997 Carrera is so sexy ! The sounds of the Flat 6 engine is very loud, I like that.

Thanks for the link smettie.

you're welcome! i think the 997 looks much more agressive than the 996, and in this 'sexy black', it has something mysterious, so i like it very much

i'm glad to be able to offer a video too, after all the links you guys offered!

maybe one small (hopefully not stupid) question, in another video in the porsche video forum, they say 'tubi exhaust', but what is the difference with a 'normal' one?

thank you !

That cruising sound was a bit too loud for my liking. Cruising is something where atleast I don't want sounds to be loud. Just when revving it.

For sure the stock 997 is already on another planet compared to the relatively dull 996's sound, but I am not so sure about this Fabspeed exhaust.. I don't like the sound.. yes it is loud, but it lacks carisma IMO! I would rather keep the 997S stock or look for another exhaust

Thanks for the link, a very nice video
I personally like the sound of the Fabspeed exhaust, nothing compared to a Ferrari but on its own its very nice

very nice video. The sound is absolutely amazing. I'm really starting to love the new 997's. I cant wait to see what the future models will look like. The video would be slightly better if the guy didnt talk so much.
