That looks awesome! Very nice. Which seats and pedals are those? Also, have your Girodisks been worth it?

You have great taste!

Guess I need to lose the pumpkins... And I'm still on the fence about getting some tint.

Love it! I was fine with silver and meh about the turbo twists when I got it. I thought the black powder coat might help but wasn't sure. Then I saw a picture of Jscaramella's and I was like "That is it!"

Mine are just plasti-dipped! Needs to be redone now though as it's getting a bit ragged. However I've got a set of 18" Carerra 5-spoke wheels that will go on once I wear out the current rubber. Still trying to decide if I will leave them silver or not...

Coming into the Porsche world from the outside, the turbo twists are bizarre. Once you've been around though, they are classic, quintessential 996.

Silver 996s with black wheels is the only way to roll.

2003 C2 Seal Gray 6spd 72k mi, currently replacing a few minor interior parts, upgrading the shifter to a 997 for a more solid shift, looking to try the fabspeed cf dual cone intake to free up some sound and power. Have changed the oil, no metal or sign of trouble in the oil pan. Going to get the RMS / IMSb inspected shortly to see if there are any obvious warning signs. New michelin ps pair coming in tomorrow for the fronts.

this look has me powerless

Saweet! You will enjoy the shifter upgrade. The 996 shifter is really really bad, IMO. I do like the cold air intakes but that and exhaust are way down on my list right now. Still focused on suspension, braking and maybe a racing seat...

997 shifter is a must! Installed one recently, quite straight forward. Couldn't be happier with it!

GT2 Brake ducts. Because you can never be too cool! (And because I seemed to have developed a slight bargain shoppers addiction to the Rennlist Classifieds.)

This is a slippery slope! I'm totally watching what you with your car, so that it can be the guinea pig instead of my own.
