However, I think I just moved up a notch in the automotive ladder because this Porsche is far superior to any of my Corvettes in many ways. Comfort, speed, handling and more. I have not driven other Porsche models, so it's hard to compare a Turbo S against a regular Corvette, but I will say this, I am already looking for my next Porsche. Another Turbo S or maybe a GT3 or possibly just a Turbo. It will be a pre-owned car because of my budget, but I know it will be great.
Absolutely!!

a) They mow the grass today - this helps prevent me finding it covered in clumps of grass
b) it's hot as ***** in South Florida, so the cover brings the interior temp down to 2,000 degrees when I get in after work.

Without heavy modifications no, however you can bolt on the c4s/turbo front bumper to a c2 with the right parts.

There was also a C4S or turbo (can't remember) rear deck lid modified for a C2 for sale in a thread somewhere.

Yeah I particularly like the front bumper of the C4S and the rear bumper with the corner air vents. Looks super sexy! :

C4S Front bar bolts onto a C2 but there are more parts then just the bar required but no luck with the rear bar that wont work.

If you like the look of the C4S you're better off buying one rather than trying to convert it to look like one.

Dan - I'm on the hunt for a 02-04 996. So far I've test drove a 99' C2, an 02' C2 & an 01 C2 Tip. My favorite was the 02 C2, it has the 3.6L and I found it to have more umph and better pull. It was the most exciting 996 of the 3 that I drove. That's why I want an 02-04 coupe. Then there's the C4S which looks super sexy but I really do not need the all wheel drive since I live in TX where it's super hot and flat here. Ahh decisions decisions....

Have a watch of Jake's video it's basically 6 months of research you'd have to do yourself made into a half hour video. You can thank him and Charles post purchase
