Exquisite find
Opening soon at a thread near you: "The Modding of the Black Pearl" Viggo played by Johnny Depp? I know "The Black Pearl" sounds corny but car's gotta have a name, right? It's not just something that Johnny Depp is looking for...)
I feel SO blessed to be able to find a car as nice as this. It's 12 years old and runs like new.
I felt like a proper introduction was in order. Sorry the pics looks like crap because of the size. I have the big originals if anyone want's some.

We're blessed to have you on this board; you & the beautiful but bad to the bone Black Pearl! Breathtaking lightweight TT
Thanks for your advice when I was modding my 993. My advice? Have fun with your German gem, enjoy that slippery slope (you are so far gone already
), & keep us along for the ride. Never too many photos, my friend. 
Off to a perfect start -- your shots in the shade show off perfectly shiny paint. Great job with your 'first' post of your dozen-year-old new TT.Congratulations!!!
PS Thanks for your most recent PM, & offering to ask around.

I just want to say thanks to everyone for their kind words. If it wasn't for you guys... . . . .
Hi there buddy!! 
Haha.. I'm on crack?? So I have been told, you are not the first one to tell me.. Alright I'll admit it, I know I'm crazy but at least in here.. I'm not alone
Haha. yeye.. Louis when are you coming out of the closet?? You know you need uhm.. well let's see.. How 'bout a special order C2S in nogaro to begin with, but
then with GT2 bodykit, GT2 speedlines, GT2 suspension, Full Matter weld'in roll cage, full RS interior with bucket seats, RS carpets (to make it driveable to and from
the track), gutted sunroof, RS thin glass oh yeah and then a full 9M 4.0 litre NA conversion (430bhp+) and then a regear to G50/31... How does that sound??
I knew that was coming...
. I keep telling my friends I have FINALLY found "the one". For some reason they don't believe me
Yo Chris.. I'm still waiting, it's not too late. . .. . Me and David in LA, that's two.. How many do you need? . I really need those metalcats.. .. . . . .
Muts.. .. make .. . . new... cats . .. to .. buddy . .. Viggo . . . .
And you were right. I spent many sleepless nights thinking about this. Too much thinking. My problem with my porsche addiction is that if you havn't made up your mind it just consumes you. Going over it over and over in your head. I finally made up my mind and it feels GOOD . I guess you can tell from the pictures 
I always loved the speedlines.. I think they work really well with the curves of a 993..
Thanks Matt. I ended up being a little less track oriented than you . Got bitten by the turbo bug. What I really love about my turbo and gobs of power is that it remains very subtle and comfortable (stock interior) while going for a cruise on a sunday afternoon whereas when you step on it, it just transforms into a total BEAST !. Please keep us updated on your track project, havn't seen much of it in a while .
R- Thanks buddy. We really need to arrange some kind of get together next summer if I visit PA. Thanks for the great advice it made my trip much more enjoyable.
I know it's crazy (the build spec). Gotta love thisone. Keeper. I still envy you for having double 993s. How do you chose whichone to drive?
LOL.. Well I guess we'll have to wait and see
