Ian: My dog will "paw deliver" you a gps that works... And keep in mind that a few thousand miles will just be sitting on a boat... So no biggie there. Just make sure your car doesn't come in close contact with a U.S. 996/997 - you don't want your car to catch the IMS herpes virus - although I hear that if your car is wrapped in a clear bra it should be relatively well protected 
Fracture: yeah I know +2K miles to get here... But it's all worth it coming to the West Coast motorsports Mecca...
Here's a few teasers from RRIV--

Number 524 joined the 100000 mile club today. Over the few years I have owned it I have done the AOS, water pump, oil filler tube, clutch, RMS, IMS bearing, coolant flush, replaced the windshield, and a brake fluid flush. I sure hope thats all the work I will need to do and can get another 100000 miles out of it.

Did not like the front plate mounting on the front so whilst i had it all off to clean the radiators i 'rearranged' it a bit - think it looks a lot better!!
less intrusive and more aerodynamic officer :roll eyes:
two plastic plugs for the old holes from Home Depot and sprayed them with some silver spray paint i got there too.
Way more asthetically pleasing.

You know Eric @ bumper plugs makes exact color match plugs if you don't like the Home Depot route.

If anyone is interested, I stumbled across a 40th Anniversary is up for sale at the local VW/Subaru dealer. It is #22 according to the document on the passenger seat. I have no affiliation and the details are here: http://www.chaplinssubaru.com/used/P...earchDepth=1:7
For some reason, they get a lot of Porsches of various sorts in. At the moment, they appear to have 7 including a couple of 997s.
