The car has 95k miles, all I have done to the car is a oil change, I also just ordered the filter and seal for a tranny oil change, other than that the car is solid and it had it's 90k service done a year go

Opo,

Great car, sounds like your daughter is having fun with it already! My 1 year old son has his dads 964 to look forward to in 16/17 years time, if I can bear to part with it (good excuse to get myself a turbo!) I'd be a very happy man convoying with my boy in a couple of 964's one day, you're a lucky man!

I can appreciate why some people may think it's too much car for a 16 year old but it sounds like she has grown up in a car loving family (as did I) and is more than capable, so let's all move on and hear more about the planned mods....

I am sooooo glad I don't live in Katy, Texas! If I were to see a teenage girl driving a white 964 with pink calipers...I would puke! I enjoy this site to talk about Porsches...not Dodge Challengers or how you will buy all your kids houses when they graduate...there are many gents that work their entire life to be able to afford one of these fine automobiles...I'm just saying, a little respect and humility goes a long way!

You need to find you something to do sir, what you need to do is pay the fee to become a member here since you like to run your mouth a lot , and get ready cause you are going to be puking soon cause pictures are coming soon of the pink calipers

Guys its a white 964 with an automatic.... it was a chick car from the factory! Painting it pink sounds about right too me!

Haha I wished my parents had helped me more with racing my 914, but I'm not jealous of other people who get help. I'm sure your daughter will appreciate that car for years to come, and give you guys more chances to bond

Also deep down I hope she's got a lil Danica Patrick in her, cuz it would be hilarious to watch her kick some *** on a race track in a white and pink auto 911 lol

you gonna powder coat or just paint the calipers? You should just powder coat the rims while your at it!

I'm thinking of just painting the calipers, we r going to see how the the stripe looks, Utah is going to photo shop it today , if we don't like that look than I will try power coating the wheels

+1. There is no need to kill someone else's excitement like this.

Here's a quick PhotoChop until Utah (other thread) gets a side shot... (a quick job, so I didn't mess with the black around the script - actually like the pink/black script combo against the white...)

Pink mirrors too?
