swajames, congrats for your new ride! Has the car been broken in yet?

Are you thinking of changing the exhaust of your car? If you are, i have a set of Brand New Fabspeed muffler for sale. Well but if you have PSE on your car, i don't think you would need to change the mufflers though.

Just passed break-in last week - those first 2000 miles were tough! I don't have PSE - but was thinking about an upgrade at some point so may be interested in the Fabspeed. What difference would the Fabspeed make compared to stock?

Fabspeed gives a deep tone when cold start and much throatier than stock when you are driving it. It is not too loud for daily drives. EuroCarFan has heard my fabspeed exhaust before and maybe he can give some opinions about it. We should meet up sometime and i'll let you hear the amazing sound.

I purchased two sets from fabspeed as i wanted to bring one back to Singapore for my cousin's 997. But he just traded his 997 for the new 997tt there - so he doesn't need it anymore.

Im curious to the owners who bought new 997s, what were you other options and why did you choose 997 over them? Im assuming competitors would be mainly M6 and some sort of MB? Are these 997s your daily car as well?
