Default When Will This Slippery Slope Stop!!

I've had the 993 for nearly 4 years .. I can't seem to stop myself from the slope...

I had to have some body work done so while it was in the shop I had the Aerokit 1b Side Skirts added and deleted the headlight nozzles.

Chuck,

I think it never stops. Its like fixing your house... its never completely done. I think this is a good thing. Think how excited you get when you add some new tidbit... it saves you from new car shopping, so bottom line... its saves you money.

Have you started looking into carbon trim bits for the interior? Want a link? Muwhahaha.

Phil,

I'm sure your GT3 is perfect... for now. But there's the Manthey power adders, the Motons, the Carbon wings.... yes Phil, even the GT3 has a slope. Your turn will come.

I like ca993twin's comment. I think I'm gonna buy some Motons for my car, and tell my lady that I'm saving money, because I'm not buying a new car. Anyone willing to try this? I can already feel her palm smacking my face at 100mph.

Funny. I was just thinking about how I want to keep my car as stock as possible. My first 993 I wanted to do EVERYTHING to it. This car I don't want to touch it other than maintenance. Heck I'm even considering avoiding PSS9s for ROW M030s.

No slope slipping for me...yet.
