I'm new to the group and want to say hello. I've trolled around when I had my 1987 944, but I plan to stick with the 996 for a long long time so I thought I'd finally say hello. Cheers!
Here's my '99 996.


Obligatory statsaka MORE than anyone would possibly want to know)

• 50k mi. (had factory engine replacement at 35k mi. by dealer)
• Sport package w/ M030 (US), LSD & Sport seats
• B & M short shifter
• Custom powder coated wheels, exhaust tips, and LP frame (BMW Graphite)
• Eibach lowering springs
• Center Console Delete
• Non-smoker package
• GT3 front bumper and side rockers
• Side markers, headlight signals

I'm carefully trying to select the next thing to start saving up to upgrade on the car.

ivangene

is there a DIY to get my coffee moving quicker....

gota911

.... plus he stated "Eibach lowering springs"

Have another cup of coffee, Ed! It will help with the ADD!

gota911

There is your problem, those aren't coffee cups, those are shot glasses with handles. Get a 12 oz. to 16 oz. coffee mug!
