Arena Red here I come!!!!!
Will hopefully be getting my hands on an Arena Red TT in the next week or two!!
Can't wait, this will be my first Porsche, first turbo charged car, and first all wheel drive. After a drive in this machine I was sold, such a beast yet so easy to drive. Will probably be frequenting this site quite often.
Thanks for the help so far!!

Haven't bought it yet as I will be selling my current car in a few days and will replacing it with a 1996 Arena Red Turbo. So far I believe it has a Bilstein PSS9 suspension 39,XXX miles.

Sounds like a really nice car.
before anyone else here corrupts you, it is absolutley true that the 96 Arena Red Turbo's were quite a bit faster than the other colours.
Welcome to the board, and you really need to post some pictures.

Welcome to the Board. You'll love it.
Personally I prefer stealth midnight blue although it didn't help me the other day. Knocked it down to no points although he really just wanted to look at the car and talk about it. Cost me 40 bucks so he could go gaga over the car.

OK so I test drove the car yesterday and the thing was a beast!!! Couple issues with the car, there was an oil leak coming from the rear right side (passenger), I couldn't see where the leak was coming from due to the panel under the engine compartment. Initially I saw smoke (burning oil) coming out from wheel well area then slow drips from under the car. Next issue was the black rocker panel on the passenger side was loose and one of the tabs was busted.
The car had a complete engine overhaul (valve guides etc.) new belts, rebuilt turbo's, engine looked clean from what I could see under the intercooler. Does anyone possibly know what the leak could come from? I know it's hard to say without looking at the car.
While driving the oil temp looked good and the oil pressure was in the 3-4 range on the dial but I couldn't get a reading out from the oil level. If pressures/temp are good does that mean there is sufficient oil?
In regards to the rear wiper, I pressed the button and it wiped a few times and stopped. Is that normal or should it continue until I press it again. I didn't get a chance to mess with it much as I was to involved with the test drive and much less the accessories.
Thanks in advance!!
