Default New owner - My Lady

I am a new proud owner of a 2002 966 which will be my DD. It only had 15,000 miles on it and I had to jump on her. I bought her about two weeks ago!

I have been reading here and learned some stuff. Did the garage door opener mod and got rid of the cassette holder and put the shelf in its place.

Now I want to give her a deep mean voice. Cost might slow me down







Looking forward to reading, learning, Modding, and Driving

Copper

Looks great. Would look even better without the pumpkins.

Nice Photoshop skills too.

Great looking Porsche. You can find used exhaust systems on Rennlist all the time, which will save you money for the other mods that will follow..............

I have taken a photo or two here is one of my pics.
This is for a different discussion and forums


I have been looking at the Fister 996/997 Sport Muffle,but money is an issue right now

I have a friend who owns Lawell Motorsports in Houston.
Free plug - http://www.lawellmotorsports.com/

Who is going to help me out with a cold air intake tomorrow if he can find one laying around. Fingers crossed.

Thanks

Pumpkins???? - Side markers? I know I know.

The EVIL Mod bug has grabbed me.

Question??? What is WOT??? Wide open throttle? But then they talk about buttons. Lost on this WOT thing.

WOT?: Wide Open Throttle, Waste Of Time, Way Off Topic...
