07 Cargraphic 7 RS
This is my first post....and I thought I would share with you all some work that I have done to my black RS (all decals removed and orange 'bits' resprayed black). It has been fitted with a 3.9L engine including modified DME (approx 462hp), stage 3 full exhaust system, 9.5 and 12 Cargraphic wheels (19in) fitted with 265/30 and 315/30 Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT tyres, widened carbon fibre front wings and mesh front guards, all the above from Cargraphic. The car has been modelled on the 07 Hockenheim Tuner winner driven by Marc Basseng. Car looks and sounds amazing, and drives as good as it looks....well balanced and neutral. Pics to follow. I originally had an order in for the '10 RS, but could not bring myself to do the deed, as I am so attached to the '07 now....which is probably as quick, and I feel a better looker. Reason for my 'nick' is that I also own a rare '96 993 GT2....(also black, 13k km totally original)... But truth be told, I enjoy driving the RS more. Do not track either any longer (I know, you will say its a shame) but I am almost 63 and my boss (wife) says its her or the track.

Dear lovemyGT2: Sounds like a fantastic garage and I look forward to seeing pics of both. Please note that I would be happy to come visit and exercise not one but both your cars at the track to ensure they stay nice and healthy. And yes, I will do it free of charge and strictly out of kindness.

Dear Louis
I really appreciate your offer. Thanks. But you would have to travel many miles and hours to do this. As you can see from my address....
Pics on the way in next couple of days, just waiting for a friend to bring his camera over.
