Greetings from Finland... Just bought this beauty two days ago! Couldn't be happier with the car, it has EPL tune and custom exhaust with active flaps.

Congratulations ! Looks like you scored yourself a mint example of a 996 Turbo.

Thanks! Car has 63K on the clock but it definitely seems to be in mint condition. Service history is immaculate, the paint is flawless with a recently applied ceramic coating, the original hollow spoke wheels don't even have a scratch, and the overall feeling is a very tight. Even with the tiptronic it feels very strong, the engine pulls like a f**ing train compared to my old 996 C4.
On the downside it's UK import, so for the cheaper price I paid I'm driving a RHD 911 now in return. Seems to be no big deal though, I'm already getting used to it. Absolutely love the car!
My Black 996TT in the foreground (in my father's heated garage where it is spending it's winter). Helped my father pick up his new GT2 today. Even on the short drive home I could tell that these two cars couldn't be more different despite their similar looks. Not to mention his GT2 has 6,000 miles on it compared to my 93,000 miles. I'll get much better pictures in spring when it's time to get both these cars out on the road.
Oh and that's my Cayenne TT way in the background on the driveway.
Can't remember if I posted this here or not... Do you name your cars?
My kids name my cars. Red Racer was our 944 Turbo. Blue Bullet was a 996 with aerokit. My white 996 was in route and the kids were struggling to come up with a name. "Snowball" was offered. Eh, no. "Snowflake". Keep trying. "Lighting". Better.
We went on a family vacation and spent one day at a dude ranch. The evening entertainment was a cookout and cowboy songs. The last song began and the lights when out.
A lone guitar began to strum Johnny Cash's Ghost Riders in the Sky. Suddenly a strobe light flashed, and a black horse reared from nowhere ridden by a ghostly apparition, complete with skeleton mask and black cowboy hat. My kids gripped my arms in fear of the ghost rider.
Now "Ghost Rider" sits in my garage with Johnny Cash in the #1 slot in my CD player.
@TWINS,
Is that one of the DCT T96 wheels? How do you like it?
Yes it is. Very happy with the smaller diameter and flat bottom. I have a 2" steering wheel extension that puts my arms in a great position with lots of leg room being 6'3".

Beautiful cars! Do you drive the 6TT on the street with the Joe Toth splitter on like that? Have you posted your thoughts ):
Works great on the street. No problems, even better on the track did post my thoughts... bottom line, prefer the 996 Turbo. But it may be like having 3 great kids...love them all. (Have a 987.2 Cayman S too)
