After 20 years of 944 ownership I just purchased my first 996. It is a Dark Blue Aero Kit with grey interior. Once I have a chance I will post some better pics.
I've not had the best results looking for the option code translation, so if anyone could help I will be very thankful.
Thanks




996 Owners,

XAA = factory aero kit, so you've got that go in' for you.

Nice looking car. Aero kit is the best option, IMHO.

RDL

Thanks, I think the Aero kit really completes the look of the 996.

Those wheels look great on the MkI also. Someday I'll like to find a used set for mine and turn my twists into winter wheels.
Do you still have your 944? Was it a base 944 or something else?

RDL

It was a 944s2 that I sold to a Rennlist member in Missouri. Loved that car, but felt it was time to sell and move to a more modern Porsche.
