I think I smell Sport seats in there too. I can take them off your hands if you like.

Nice ride. Am I the only one here who recognizes the modified "shocker" from my college years??! lol! My car has the same right side oil leak, and I am also looking at new shocks/springs. Be sure and call sunset porsche (no affiliation) for some good prices on parts. I'm also doing the slave and accumulator for my car as well for a winter project.

Yes - I have a 2007 Carrera S, and a 2011 Audi S4. All have winter tires!! Daily Drive the 997 and S4. Prior, had a 2003 996 and a 2001 996 (drove over 90k miles). The avatar is my 997 at the track, 714 is my number.

Purchased a cdr-210 today actually... want to install it to keep the car as stock as possible. 20 years from now - it will be a collectors car IMHO! But i plan to drive it - albeit not in the snow

It may well be. In all likelihood I won't be here in 20 years! So, I'll mod mine to my taste. Whoever gets it can put it back to stock.
