Thanks. Mom is doing well. She had open heart surgery today at the Cleveland Clinic. She is recovering now, but she seems to be doing great. I thank God that they found the issue before it became a much bigger issue and that she was able to be at the Cleveland Clinic. They are the second best heart hospital in the world and they just happen to be 30 minutes from her house.

wow - 15 miles away and the car you were waiting for - match made !
you will have to be in contact with Orient Express to get the details on how to detail it and keep it that way. He is a master cleaner..........just search his user ID and find pics on here, Renntech and all over the interwebs

No prob, only reason I knew about it was those sport seats, I sent the owner a message asking to buy them and swap for mine. Beige sport seats are very rare! Enjoy it in good health.

Thanks!
I knew it was a rare bird with the sunroof delete, sport seats with painted backs, painted center console and red seat belts. With my intent on continuing to do DE events, this car was a natural fit.

Thoughts?
I was not a big fan of the chrome wheels that are shown in the pics. They do look better in person, but I plan on using the Porsche 3 piece wheels that also came with it and were pictured. I was thinking about refinishing the Porsche wheel centers is gunmetal or black and selling the chrome wheels. What are everyone's thoughts on the chrome wheels?
Don't worry, you will not offend me as I am not sure that I like them so I want to hear opinions.

BTW, posting pics that were taken by the previous owner does NOT meet the "official Rennlist requirement" that the current owner needs to post pics of his newly acquired car.
In other words, you still owe us some pics!

Ahem < Tim clears his throat >
Welcome to Rennlist and Congrats on getting a nice looking 996..... or at least we imagine it is a nice looking 996. However, since you didn't post any pics of the car we can't be sure. Consider this next sentence your official "Newbie Initiation."
Come Newbie, post the @#$%^&* pics!
I HAVE to do this so they let me stay on the 996 Forum. Remember, it's all in good fun.
Again, Welcome to Rennlist!
