Thumbs up Photos of my 2002 C4S...

As promised, here are some photos of my 996 C4S. The rear end is just magnificent in every aspect and this goes for every single 911 out there...





And one from the front:



Now the photos don't make the car justice tbh, as the paint job is as fresh as when it came out from the Stuttgart factory (which btw is less than 380 km (240 miles) from where I live). I will, when the weather turns to the better and I get to pull out my proper camera stuff out, post proper photos of the car.

Funny thing is that I still turn my head every single time I see a 911 pass me by... Some things just never changes

Beautiful...but then I am a bit biased =)

Smoked indicators looks great on this color car. Will have to add those to the list.

Whats your interior color?

Thanks...

Funny thing is that after I saw the photo myself on my Mac, I first then realized how wide the rear tires actually are. I knew the dimensions and all on paper as I had done my homework prior to purschasing but never knew what to expect in real life. Scared me a little to be honest

Black leather all around and is as new as (again) when it left the factory in Germany back in 2002 without any fading in colours. Even smells of new leather.

I will post some interior photos as well when daylight allows for it

As I probably said before, the car is in tip top condition. One of the service books shows that the owner before me (owner number 2) had the car from 2007 to end of 2012 and had only driven 20'000 km during this period (12'500 miles). Not a single squeek or rattle to be heard when the engine is running (except for my other half sitting next to me) but a roar when you hit 3'500-4'000 rpm which is the sweetest sound I have ever heard (bar the air cooled engine sounds of course).

It does sound as a cliche, but the second I saw the car I knew this was the one. I remember it as being much smaller than I had anticipated and tight on space as well, but when I sat in it for the very first time and turned the key to fire it up I just knew this was it...

Hahaha... I'm going all soft when I talk, think and write about it...

Nice *** shot Frank996, it's always the best angle for a wider rear end 911.

Interesting that the tow hole cover is to the upper right of the licence plate, as opposed to ours, which is behind the plate, which makes very little sense at all. Much more practical them Europeans!
