Thanks. It's aventurine, I agree, hard to tell apart in some lights unless you have an agate car alongside ... this one might help with the colour ... post edited by paulbarlow - 2023/05/31 13:26:16 Quote Reply #502

A bored out 3.4/ 3.8 or 4.0 engine from 911 ? Just interested. thanks Adrian. I think I read somewhere it's the same engine as in the GT4 and Spyder but with a few hundred rpm less at the top end so in everyday use gives similar performance to those models. It doesn't directly answer the question however - which engine is it based on. Someone on here will know and enlighten us no doubt. Quote Reply #505

A bored out 3.4/ 3.8 or 4.0 engine from 911 ? Just interested. thanks Adrian. The 4.0 litre engine in the 718 GTS 4.0, GT4 and Spyder is based on the 3.0 engine in the 991.2 and 992 Carrera models, only bored out to 4.0 and without the turbos. The engine is identical in all three 718 models, just with slightly different software, this software is also different between engines mated to PDK and manual transmissions.

When I first started driving 100 BHP / litre was a big deal and needed a very high state of tune to achieve - basically a race engine. Bear in mind that was before catalytic converters and GPF filters were required and fuel was available with much higher octane than it is now. Now we have engines that are at that level of performance with 20k mile service intervals and meet EU6 requirements and are happy tootling around without fouling a plug at the earliest opportunity. 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 Quote Reply #510

I gather it's due at the OPC on 19 June, so I'm assuming I'll get to pick it up about a week later. I hope it won't be long now as I'm missing the poke & sound of my Supra (part-exed recently) and my Skoda Citigo run-about isn't quite in the same league as either, although still a fun drive! post edited by owensc1 - 2023/06/04 12:09:40 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 / Toyota GR Supra / Abarth 124 Spyder / Audi S1 / 987 Boxster S / Audi TTS / ...arrera 2S / Audi S4 / 986 Boxster S / Mazda MX-6 / MGF–VVC / Renault Clio 16v / Renault 5 GT Turbo / Vauxhall Astra GTE (260 > max. 255) Quote Reply #511

I am absolutely chuffed to bits with it and so thought I'd share a picture of it with you. Now looking forward to a few trips out, starting with Wollaton Hall tomorrow! Paul Quote Reply #519
