Great pictures and thanks for posting. I see you optioned your car in such a way that you won't be hampered by extra weight.

i read yesterday. neat issue article with the 4 turbo's from sloan was very cool. the X51 was mostly light reading really just a recap of the X51 throughout the 996, 997, 991 models.
