Listed my Ti Speedtech in the classifieds. 
As soon as I sell my car I have a feeling I'll be looking for another (GT2???)!

Buddy of mine needed to borrow my timing belt tools to do the timing belt on his 944 racecar, so I took the opportunity to drive my 996TT from my house the 34 miles through backroads to his. They're calling for 3-10 inches of snow (do they ever really know?) today, so getting that last drive in before the storm was nice. I managed to not get caught up in traffic on the rural back roads around Lake Anna Va and it was a nice spirited trip. I then jockeyed cars around at my place and parked the 996TT back in my shop for the duration of the storm season.

It's a very fine line between "I support your hobby since it's better than a cocaine habit" and "a cocaine habit would be cheaper than three sports cars."
Also, I just want to note that I bought an extended warranty (aftermarket) when I got my Turbo and my Elise. Both cost about $3,000 CAD, and the Turbo one has paid out probably close to 6k. Money well spent. However, the Lotus? Total waste of money. I haven't had a single damn thing go wrong with that car and although that's a really good thing, makes me a bit upset that everything can't have Toyota reliability.
Rant over.

I bought my GT2 front cover from NRAuto - I wanted a poly-urethane one, quality was pretty good, bought two lower lips with it as well.
Misha seems to have gone dark.
And then, there is also the factory option...
I would LOVE to have John's Carbon GT2 blade and decklid, but, transmission tapped me out this year.
