My 03 Targa is in Oct issue of Excellence
Made the Reader Sales Reports section. Pg.66
Almost unedited report I sent in w/ exception of previous owner being longtime PCA member and multiple 911 owner, taking excellent care of my purchase. Great Guy. Honest
One of my best Craigslist buys over the years
One day I'll have to write up recent mods,new B8 Bilsteins, HR Sport springs & Adj Sway bar. replaced GG console with new Aluminum Look from my Boxster S, Replaced eBrake handle with Leather/Aluminum unit. Reupholstered both Consoles leatherette pieces w/ Graphite Grey Leather from Porsche Dealer hide stock from that era. Replaced shifter w new 997 unit (nice consistent action), and reclaimed original paint shine w Griots Polisher and liquids.

Thank you, Me 2 on the Targa's.
I recently took it on a 2K trek to FL from Ohio, and its so nice to be able to open the top while driving 75+ and get some fresh mountain air w/o disturbing calm Cabin ambiance.
Though the best part was when coming back home through NC mountains and I had these 2 rice grinders pass me at top of mountain twisties, w cruise control on, only to be quickly run down the hill w/o touching my brakes at 75-80 MPH the whole way. IT's funny having them "pinned" in left lane while I coast buy on tight inside curves. They or the S/O's quickly run out of nerve when their line is hard to hold.
As they say "There is no substitute"
