Anymore of them available?

How is your car so clean under the windshield cowl? I thought mine was ok for a driven car but yours looks as if The car has never been driven in inclement weather.

I'm fortunate that all previous owners (4) were very **** about keeping this car clean and out of weather. The last two drove it a combined total of 1,100 miles....

I bought it with 16K miles and it has 25K now. I avoid rain and snow

Installed a GIAC stage 1 tune (x-plus). I don't track it, but it gives me a lot more smiles just street driving it. Definitely worth the money.

Keeping with the rear end shots theme, installed painted bumperettes from BumperPlugs. Great customer service and fantastic craftsmanship.





Aw, crud, I just realized that I lowered the value of my car even more with yet another mod!

Had my mechanic swap engine lids for one I bought with *both* rams working. Anyone need a Speed Yellow lid and a 'core' hydraulic system?

Then cruised PCH and admired the ocean...

My GT4 is here. I just came back to this thread to say it has been a pleasure to be part of the 996 TT community! And what a great car the 996 TT is! I still miss it sometimes! I hope you guys don't mind if I share a picture. I don't want you guys to think I'm showing off or anything,I just thought you might enjoy it as fellow car enthusiasts.

Nick.

As the weather begins to turn here in the midwest the cars aren't driven as much. As much as possible, just not as much. This morning "The Ghost" as my kids call the 996TT, was a little slow to turnover.

I took it for a nice long drive. Then I hooked the trickle charger pig-tail to the battery. Ready for when the driving mood hits me.
