Looking good ,really like your interior.Btw is that a CDN car,saying because you got the headligths washer.Nice upgrade will be a set of Euro signal ligths available from "Sunset Porsche" install them on mine last year,very easy DIY about 1hr job for both side.Also one of the best upgrade up to date on my car was a CS steering wheel will agree that they are expensive but worth every penny beleive me.Take care & enjoye your new ride.

I don't think it's a CDN since I've got maintenance records that show it was serviced when bought in Cherry Hill, NJ (I think). It does have the winter package and heated seats which was nice.
Those upgrades you mentioned are on my To Do list: CS Steering wheel, Euro lights, new shift *** (it's showing wear), short shifter, M030 sway bars front and rear, and larger rims. But those will have to wait as I get the capitol for them. First thing will be to replace/restore the vinyl on the door panels. After 19 yrs, and the last 4 years being a daily driver, it's developed some browning from sun damage. I figured I'd fix the cosmetic parts then upgrade internally. Every thing else is in great shape. No stains. Leather is clean and in good shape. Paint is in good shape with just minor rock chips on the grill, things like that.

I've been working on that same problem on my car. Cleaning products have been real spotty. What I've found is rain water seems to take that crap right off

Thanks, I'll keep you in mind when I get around to the interior panels. First thing's first though, this weekend, replacing the stock steering wheel with one from a 996.
