All warranty items.
1. replaced braided steel line from transmission to oil cooler (leaking a lot)
2. reattached the driver's side lower windshield molding
3. bypassed the rear center console storage box lock switch, alarm sensor portion failed

The wing is made by Manthey ... nothing else changed to date ... my car is pretty basic. No mechanical issues whatsoever to date. I did change out the all black with red stitching seats that came in the car for the exact same kind but with red backs that I had sitting around that were meant to go in my 993 black cab. The guage faces are red, the seat belts are red, and the calipers are standard red.
I'll be adding Rennline alu pedals, floor boards, and track mats real soon. Thinking about a white GMG roll-bar (I'm tall) and am on the fence re: carbon fiber mirrors.

'04 which I bought 9/11/07 with 2800 miles and now has 4500 miles. Only about 100 DE miles so far... Have all records and see no issues except a rattle in a speaker which the dealer fixed. It is a dream car for me.
Cheers!
