I finally found the right car for me, an Arctic Silver Carrera 4 with black interior and approx. 110 000 miles on the odometer. As mentioned in this thread, it was located over 1100 miles away from where I live, so it was quite a trip driving it home. For those of you who have never been i Norway, the scenery in the Northern parts is almost worth the trip alone - let alone driving your new Porsche through it
A few pics (from the ad, though)
The engine was replaced with a 3.6L about 31.000 miles ago. A Carrera Power kit was also installed while replacing the engine. The gearbox has been overhauled in 2015, and the car itself is generally in a good condition. Gemballa lowering springs have also been fitted, these provide the Perfect blend between ride height and handling.
There are a few marks here and there, but nothing extraordinary if you consider the age and mileage of the car, and the fact that it has been a DD. It drives and handles great, and the sound from the flat-six is just incredible.
Further plans include deleting the rear windshield wiper, adjusting the handbrake and replacing the window regulator mechanism, as this failed just before I came to retrieve the car.
Love this look , does anyone have the part numbers or where you can buy these as I agree they make the rear look better .... Shane
Ps great car
I don't have the part # but I bought a set on ebay for my last 996 for around $80 if I remember right... I just kept searching for used tips every few days and eventually a set popped up that they didn't know what they had. They're very easy to spot the difference once you see a couple pics of them compared to the standard ones.
