Default My Sacrilegious C4

I had her detailed less than a month ago, then I came back from camping.

Figure I'd introduce my car, picked her up a few months ago. 2001 C4 with a factory Aero Cupkit in Lapis Blue, sitting on 19" Champion RG5, Bilstein PSS9 coilovers to the lowest height. B&M short shifter, fabspeed exhaust and tubi headers, and for all I know it may have a flash too, wish I knew how to find out

I'll get some more pictures once I clean her up.

Really nice roof rack. I am looking to get my bikes on top of my car. Do you hear any funny wind noise with that on top?

Thanks, it's a Thule box wrapped in carbon fiber vinyl. No noise unless I have the sunroof open.

IMHO, there's nothing wrong with demonstrating the utility side of these cars... RIGHT ON BRO!

So nice to see a Porsche owner actually 'using' his car and getting it dirty. Thanks for the pic.

Can't really tell from my phone but I'm assuming you are not running the lower lip piece due to the amount you lowered it?

I had to raise my car slightly with my aero bumper to preventing it from scraping.

Nice car!

That blue looks really good with the tinted windows and smoked side markers and black wheels. Nice!

I like it! Nothing wrong with treating your car like a car.

I agree and since you already have dirt all over your car, raise your coilovers to max height and play in some serious mud off road.

Edit: Don't try to compete with this model though. You will lose....
