Default I'm now an official owner of a 996

Here is a of pic of my 2001 Orient Red Carrera 2 Coupe. I had a delightful drive from Greensboro, NC back on to northeastern PA on Friday. It was a great way to familiarize myself with the car. Now I need to do a bit of cleaning.

Great car.

I think that's the year they forgot to put the key hole on the passenger side Just kdding.

I hope you made it past the PA turnpike with out incident. I'd of cut into the Shenandoah Valley and headed north. No matter what roads its a great car. This must mean the weather is going to get better for driving now

It does have a sunroof. I am still trying to figure out the options. Most of them that I can decode are pretty much for leather interior, power seats, Hifi stereo, etc. I might need some help as the Renntech search doesn't seem to find them all.

I live outside of Scranton, Pa. I was able to avoid the PA turnpike but Interstate 81 is pretty rough in spots.

Congrats on the car!

I lived in Mount Pocono for a while before moving to Charlotte. We still own our homes there and have them as rentals now. There are some nice roads out that way including Route 611 that runs along the Delaware River.

Have fun with the car!

Option C02 is IMS failure.

Oh, and
"Also what is a "concave hub cape with coloured escutcheon"?
is the option for IMS failure.

Love the wheels, they look familiar. Welcome.
