Dropped off for paint correction and nano coating today
Anyone else running spacers on their 50th? If so, what size?
@Ryun43 - what has been your experience? Happy with 5 front / 12 rear? Do you think a 7mm or 8mm in front would be too much?

Happy New Year to all from this new Rennlist member. In November I picked up the RNM 50th that had been on BAT earlier and I can say without qualification it is the best car I have ever owned (and my first Porsche). Black/Houndstooth, 7-MT, upgraded stereo, and bone stock. Only option I wish it had was the rear wiper--not sure if that can be added after the fact.

I've updated the registry with my information. Looks like there are a few other 50's in Pennsylvania--hope to run across my brethren soon.

Photo to follow.

Congrats!!! You picked an amazing 911 for your first Porsche. I actually wish my 50th had rear wiper as well, I've grown to like the option so much that I opted for it on my incoming 992

My 50th was on BAT last year as well before I scooped her up, they get awesome cars

Congratulations, welcome to the club. Mine has rear wiper, only time it’s a pain, is when you hit it unintentionally.

Another 50th here. In December 2019 I picked up the 6k mile Geyser Grey that was on BAT last summer.

Thank you.

^^^ This is my car.

The BAT auction winner traded her in on a loaded Touring.

Following a major service, CPO and new rear tires I picked her up from my local dealer.

She will be my daily driver but the miles will be shared with the other cars.

Here's a long shot:

Anyone willing to sell or trade the 911-50 jacket? I have a US XXL size I got in Germany but it was too big. They didn't have my size so I bought it anyway. I've worn it a handful of times and it's in excellent condition.

Looking to see if anyone has a US L size to swap.

Here's what it looks like: https://poshmark.com/listing/Porsche...f076ddb2e44d4d

Thanks!

Awesome car GRB! Congrats! I used to own #1227. Sold it and regret it. I noted you picked up the car from Burt. What an excellent spec. Very beautiful.

Very nice GRB, congratulations!

Took mine on a 400 mile trip this weekend to Easton, PA.

This car is very impressive on a road trip.

The 911/50 will go down as one of the best, and last of the naturally aspirated 911s.
