Congratulations on a beautiful 993!!!
Last weekend was my "detail" weekend on my new 96 C4 Cab. Like you, this was my first time "claying" a car. Three days of detail FUN!! I posted some pictures of the end results here:

Yep, it drives as good as it looks. When I went for the initial test drive I asked the owner to drive it FIRST. I wanted to see how HE drove it (e.g. did he ride the clutch with his left foot? - did he 'beat' on it? etc.
The car as he drove it was fine.
Then I took the wheel and it was fine.
Then the dude who did the PPI took it out (me in the passenger seat) and he said it was fine.
The car is "stock" -- just as if you bought it back in 1996 and drove it out of the showroom -- tho', since I have a K&N in my other car -- am leaning towards putting one in this too.

Whoa! Good job I 'spoke' to you before doing this then!
Thanx for the advice ...for the mo'...then, I'll leave well enuf alone.

Welcome. Nice car, nice color.
As it is stock, I recommend you stay away from this forum. The guys here are pure evil and will convince to part with your money for PSS9s, RSRs, 18" wheels, big ovals, sports seats, three-spoke steering wheel, strut brace, weltmeister bars, chip, HIDs,...I'm sure I'm missing a ton of stuff here...
Oh, and if you see a header that starts with "Group Buy, or GB", run away as fast as you can.
As they say around here, a rennlister and his money are soon parted...
