Default Shogunade's 23 Porsche 911 GTS Cab

I always regretted not having an archive of my past cars. I'm posting this for myself to chronicle my journey of ownership and the mods I get done. Feel free to chime in.

Thanks. Went crazy a couple days before lock date, but thanks to @manifold danger who was kind enough to meet up to show me his 718, I was set. Crazy how one color can be so many different shades.

Signed over. Rain all day. 3/25/23



Finally home. Was dead wrong it'd be a cakewalk getting her inside an 8ft wide door. Not to self: No more than one beer while washing then pulling her back in.

First easy mods:

Mandatory clears.



OE metal pedals.

Before. Sorta. Snapped the pic after swapping put the dead pedal.



After. Pairs perfectly with the biased lines of the 930 on the doors.

eBay key covers. The grey is a bit much but it's fine for now.


Preview of the wheel. Much thanks to the members who helped pick the color from the samples. Close enough.

Thanks. I hope to get her as nicely done as yours. I went with a company I found on eBay in China. All they make are steering wheels and the process was very involved. I've had bespoke suits made with less interaction with the maker. The shadows from the pic show its handmade nature. But once its installed it won't show. Will pass you their info if you want, but I plan on doing a write up after I'm done installing.

Dude. Great post. And what a breath. What a joy it is to pop the top down and drive that baby around with some nice tunes playing. Which sound system did you go with?

I just took possession of my GTS4cab a month ago and every time I lay eyes on her I get a huge grin 😎

I went with agate gray and black RS spider wheels. but I love that Arctic grey. So good.

enjoy that beauty!!!!

Looks like the garage of a peasant. Where are your spliced extension cords?
