Very nice car, welcome to the madness. I have a set of four newly refinished solid turbo twists with 4 brand new Connies on them if you are intrested in starting your way down that slippery slope.

I might be interested. Are you selling them? Connies you mean Koni, correct? I am new the 993 slang. PS what type of spring you using?

congrats.

That's what I thought, not sure how that got missed. I reached out to him about what to do. I am sure he will do right about it. We'll see. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Congrats! I am also a first gen immigrant, moved with family from Russia about 20 years ago, not a penny in the pocket. It's a great feeling to be able to buy your dream car with the fruits of your hard work.

Beautiful! Congratulations on your purchase. It's always great when you're able to finally acquire the car you've wanted as a child. I can't wait for that to come for me one day. Enjoy and if you ever need anything please don't hesitate to ask.

Great story, and beautiful example with a great color combo! Tore at Bergville FX has a great LED third brake light http://www.bergvillfx.com/index.php/...ake-light.html , and I highly recommend converting your brake lights, reverse lights and turn signals to LED as well. http://www.bergvillfx.com/index.php/...it-us-red.html And the HID headlights are a must! http://www.bergvillfx.com/index.php/...-discount.html These are all inexpensive mods that will enhance the look of your car, and more importantly, safety.

Welcome to the slippery slope!

Welcome to the slippery slope!
I ordered the HID kits and got it yesterday, same day as the car came. Wonder if that LED fits the Wing? or are they completely different. Guess I should check.

Spoke to Michael Willhoit he apologized for the issues and wasn't sure how the inspector missed that. Anyway, he said he would take care of all the issues and simply send him an invoice. Stand up guy. I can only say good things about him. I am happy Let the slippery slope begin. BTW, where did that term come from, I see it all time.
