Default August 09, night shots: Ferrari 550, 997 Carrera, 996TT cab

Not many cars, but some nice shots worth posting

I took these pics tonight sadly the Porsches were inside the dealership, ence the spooky light..

CLICK FOR 1600x1200

Here is a sexy 550!






A nice 996 Turbo Cabrio.. not many on the road




And a lonely 997 Carrera




No idea why they had to put the damn thing in the way LOL


Just to show you there actually was a Carrera S too


And finally, some trail lights or whatever they are called in english a tram passing by

There are not 997 already on the roads ? Im going to check my local porsche dealer to see if they got it , cuz suddenly the newspaper where the prices are posted now had normal prices , then lower prices and now up again , maybe to clear the stock

Well, I saw only a black one from far away some days ago.. so for now not many.. maybe because people around here usually preferred the C4S or TT models on the 996 and don't want to risk in buying a Carrera or Carrera S only?

It was in front of the Palace Hotel, probably 2 or 3 km from here

Sadly although it is one of the best hotels in town, it's not THAT common to see exotics in front of it..

For the ones who missed it, here is a 575 I got in front of the same hotel some time ago

Maybe they were re-oraganizing their showroom to allow me to take some good pics from inside it, but I forgot to warn them I didn't plan to enter the dealership at 9:30 pm

That 550 front 3/4 shot is amazing

Too bad about the Porsche dealership being closed tho... i guess not many people go Porsche Shopping at night.. just TT going Porsche Hunting then
