Default Introduction of my new C2

Hi all,

Been a long time 928 guy but finally bought a C2 cab. Couldn't be more pleased. Always thought if Porsche could take the best from my old 911SC Targa and combine it with the best of my 928S4 they would have the perfect car. They did it IMO with the 996 C2 Cab. What a delight.

Just ordered all the parts for a complete clutch (only negative thing on PPI) job today. She will be going under the knife on Sunday. I'm gonna take photos along the way if anyone is interested i'll post them up.

Cheers,

Geoff

Welcome. Beautiful 996. I also think that Porsche really made the 996 a great car.

She is a sweet looking ride. Would very lite window film help save the interior in CA sun. Here in Florida it really helps.

Did you keep the 928?
