X51.... Comments? Opinions? Options...
Yes the Power kit is $$$, but if one is getting it, on which chassis should it be?
C4 Cab X51 = the closest to a Turbo cab?
OR
C2 coupe X51, NON-PSM, 030 =.. the purest "sports car"

Felker,
I'm with ed, C2 would the best choise. You're not selling you TT, aren't you?!
Ed,
NO SUNROOF and all... You're the man!
I like your options & mods, I bet you don't have cupholders either!
How do you like those GT3 Seats? (I don't mind if they are hard to get out, little harsh etc. but is there any chance someone could get in the back seat (my kid wants to ride with me every now and then, he loves when I occasionally pick him up from the school ) when you move theat all the way up front?
I want to sell my sport seats and put the GT3 seats in, since I have 993 maybe I don't have so much room as you have in 996 but it shouldn't be that much different).

The car is on order, so I don't have it yet.
Real men don't have sunroofs!
I sat in a friends car with the GT3 seats, there were easier to get into and more comfortable than I thought they would be. But as for the back seat... forget it. I'm removing mine.
My current car does not have cupholders, but ALL of the 2002's and 2003's do. This crazy switchblade thing. Oh well. <img src="graemlins/yltype.gif" border="0" alt="[typing]" />

Ed,
Thanks for info, all sounds good. I really like them GT3 seats but could take some good carbon fiber sparco (or similar) too, we'll see.
I have to admit, I have sunroof (in my 993, my 911 is more 'serious, doesn't even have a/c, heating etc.
), I just couldn't find any 993 w/out sunroof here so I had no choice..
John,
I know they don't tilt but I was thinking of moving them all the way forward & then 'squeezing' my son in there!

Hey Ed Newman, nice order-
Does PCNA offer all those current European Tequipment options in 2003 or are the seats and roll bar going to be installed by you? Was X74 suspension an option? <img src="graemlins/xyxwave.gif" border="0" alt="[bigbye]" />

Those Tequipment items are still not available from PCNA and X74 is not an option on US cars.

I have the dealer bugging PCNA about the X74, but it does not look good, maybe next year? Seats, roll bar and harnesses are installed by me. PCNA does not offer these in the US. Maybe someday they will wakeup and smell the $. Suprising since they seem to be so greedy when it comes to business. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />
