Sorry Dan, they are Carrera S wheels in black, not Carrera Sports. Sometimes I get confused by the nomenclature. $2500 with PS2's and pics will be up in the classifieds by the end of the day.

PistolPete, last year was our first, but certainly not our last! I'm hoping to see 'Bob from NY' around also, as well as every Rennlister who participates in the Metro Porsche schedule.

ibmiked -
curious why you went with the 2point5 dock but not their interface kit. See that you're planning to go with one of the others later. Is the 2point5 unit inferior or ??

Any issues with the iPod interferring with your shifting?

car looks really great.

FYI- the factory black lobsters and center caps are up for sale.
Yes, Z8 will deepen the look, gives off a more wax-type look. But they are correct that Z6 is perfect for day-to-day detailing. Z8 just adds the added WOW effect. Z8 is not "better" in once sence, but different stype than Z6.

Z8 does have to be misted on very lightly or it will streak. A little goes a long way.

Another tip: I add a "spritz" of Z8 to my ZFX/Z2 mix before application.

I also like the iPhone cradle... but when the phone is connected, does it get in your way at all when shifting?

No actually, it's amazing, but the angle moves it perfectly out of the way. I don't even know it's there.

I can't read your plate from here. What does it say?
