I had the clear bra installed today. I would add pics but you can't see it. Nice!
Cheers,
Pip.

From what I've learned, x51 is a package that porsche offered for $16,900 that added an additional 26hp and a few more torques to the Carrera S with higher spec heads, cam, intake, exhaust, ECU, carbon air box and a few other bits I'm sure I'm forgetting.
It can also be pieced together after purchasing the car but I think due to the cost, most people opted not to add it to the list of options when they ordered their cars. I'm lucky that the original owner did order it but even he admitted that he should have just spent a little extra for the turbo instead of buying a $130k Carrera S!

Very nice ride and awesome job on getting the X51 package. I never got around to playing on Palomar while I lived in SoCal (Redlands). Heard some jerk poured oil in one of the corners a few years back to try and make the motorcyclist crash. Be careful out there.

Gotta love GT Silver, I think it's my fave color of the current range (hence why I bought mine LOL). Super jealous about the X51 and love those Turbo wheels. Awesome car, congrats!
