Default New member.. New 997S owner ..

Just wanted to take the time and say hello to the community ..

Couple days ago just purchased a 2006 911 Carrera S , also became a rennlist member .. I was posting in the wrong 911 threads but was directed to post here ..

My new to me 997 is in immaculate condition inside and out . A two owner and well taken care of 911 .. It included service records and factory documentation . A complete and intensive PPI report .. Has a freshly rebuilt 6speed standard 3 pedal trans .. New clutch , new crank shaft seal . New spark plugs , new coils . also new front rotors and pads .. This car needs nothing ,, but to be driven ..

Here are the goodies ,,,

* 3.8 Liter H6 Engine @ 355 HP.* 6-Speed Manual Transmission.* PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management)* PSM (Porsche Stability Management)* Sport Chrono Plus.* Porsche Factory Short Shifter.* Sport Steering Wheel.* Carrera S 19" Wheels.* Center Wheel Caps w/ Colored Porsche Crest.* White Faced Instrument Dials.* 12 Way Electric Front Seats w/ Lumbar.* Heated Front Seats.* Seat Memory Drivers Side.* Front Luggage Compartment Cooling System.* Rain Sensors.* Heated Side Mirrors.* Bose Premium Sound System.* Navigation.* Xenon Headlight System.--

I'm in northern California San Francisco at the moment ,, visitng my son ,, and live in southern California in San Diego .. Ive been wanting a 911 for years , then I stumbled on this black beauty .. I will be enjoying life driving my new baby 500 miles home .

Welcome. Looks beautiful - clean and shiny, especially in the engine bay.

I recommend Durametric for the diagnostic software and I have a Fabspeed Stage 2 tune in my Cayenne Turbo S with a lot of intake and exhaust mods. I'm not sure what a tune will do for you if the car is stock but there's another current thread here with a member tuning his stock car and taking dyno numbers before an after, so look that up and it will give you some info as to whether a tune on a stock setup buys you much. I think he is installing and testing this week.

I also have some custom polished Champion wheels for sale if you're looking to change from the stock wheels when you move to the GT3 bumpers.

Enjoy her, they're awesome cars.
