Default first 911
I pulled the trigger on this 2002... what a blast to drive... I have a cayenne s and several bmws but this is just a great driving car!!!
2002 Carrara with 92k on it... im a pretty good mechanic so I went ahead with it... the guy had a few other 911s so he was making room.

Excellent choice! Welcome to the club. Looks like another car that is shinier than mine. Drive and smile!

Is that Midnight Blue over gray? My favorite 996 color combo.

Have you found the diagrams on Autoatlanta yet?
http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-p...section=817-60
They have exploded drawing and references to part numbers. It's an amazing reference

It looks too dark to be Lapis although lighting does funny things with both Midnight and Lapis.
