Changed my 996 C4S for this last week, and the car is awesome, still running it in though.

Suggestion
However, you'll have to rip the rear seats and the rear wiper off and change the alloys to fool porschephiles such as iguana.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Looks very clean & tidy, however the former owner is a a scallywag for badgeing it as this.
Edited coz of awfull spelling

The bigfoot ride height suspension also might need lowering a foot or two
Whats the deal with the badges then? its got the propper carerra one on in another pic?
the 'poor' pix are the ones i took today.
The 'high quality' pix are Dealer Stock fotos.
The badges have probably changed twixt the Two
Suspension drop has been sorted already
course it did.
The GT3;s i was lookig at were in the £60k region, but fining one in Comfort Spec, and RHD, and with impecable history WAS hard.
So, name on list and wait for a while.
In the mean time, I will get this one Dyno'd, then look into uprating the headers/induction kit/zorst.
Not looking to spend silly money upgrading, as its only a FillGap car... 6-9mths prolly... until the GT3;s from owners taking delivery of NEW ones start to filter thru.
Hi
Well I guess you really wanted one of these... Changed my 996 C4S for this last week, and the car is awesome, still running it in though. It's the first customer car into the UK...
Nice looking car...i opted out of a 996 and couldn't handle the wait list for a Gt3,,,,maybe wish I hadn't!As fantastic as the car looks as time goes by will we remember the GT3 by the original curved bodykit and sport design alloys,,,As competent as the car is it doesn't somehow have the visual drama of the original version...or maybe that is the point??
Enjoy your car,the first full throttle blast after running in will stay with you for a long time.
Congrats, Sean; I'm sure you'll be bowled over by the new car.
If it sounds anywhere near as intoxicating as the first GT3 at high revs then I envy you immensely.
Exceptional quality.
Decided to grab one in the mean time, and Wait for 'the right' GT3 to come along, whilst simultaneously sticking my name on 'The List'
Collecting on Monday, after a Service, AirCon Recharge, refurb of alloys and Valet.
Looking forward to it
