The car came with the OEM exhausts fitted but also came with a set of Mille Miglia mufflers which I will get to bolt on over the next couple of weeks as time permits.

Welcome, I'm running a 2001 C2 in Brisbane, which part of Oz are you in?

I had set a goal to get one before I turned 30, but traveled so much I couldn't justify to buy one.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Well, I finally did it! With only one day to go before I turned the big Five O, I purchased a 98 996 in Silver with a 6 speed manual transmission. The car has been very well looked after and has had extensive mods done to the engine (receipts for $25k) ....that's Aussie dollars...we get stung a bit for parts down under.
The car came with the OEM exhausts fitted but also came with a set of Mille Miglia mufflers which I will get to bolt on over the next couple of weeks as time permits. I'm looking forward to hearing the "burble".
The Porsche by 50 was a goal of mine for long time. I've always wanted a p car since I was 18 and I saw a 930 in the flesh. I couldn't believe a car could could look so good. It looked like it was carved from a solid block of metal...and had a sound that was heavenly. That was back in the 1980's, but now I have a sexy 996 in the garage and I'm in heaven.
So hello to you all from Australia!
pictures, please.
i too have dreamed about a pcar. when i was young the 80s shorthood cars looked great. when i could get a pcar, as much as i love the aircooled versions, it made more sense (25k miles/year) to get a watercooled engine.
i believe you will love your 996 as much as i do mine.
learn what you can, share what you know.
Congratulations on both accounts... I had set a goal to get one before I turned 30, but traveled so much I couldn't justify to buy one.
Now, 10 years later, I'd say I'm 2-4 months away and I can't wait to get one...
Thank you for all your birthday wishes. I'll put up some pics shortly ( I think I have to upgrade my RL?)
I live in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales which is roughly half way between Sydney and Canberra.

Hi Rob, they came with the car. The previous owner didn't like the sound so he purchased OE mufflers and had them fitted. Of course, I couldn't wait to put them back on....nice note now!
Congrats! It's amazing what we can do when we want it bad enough
My goal was pcar by 40 and managed to get it a few weeks before my 41st...and like I keep telling the wife - it's not a mid-life crisis...it's the realization of a boyhood dream
