To finish if off, consider changing the Carrera logo to silver, the wheels to Carrera II wheels (not a fan of turbo wheels, especially polished), and the brake calipers to red.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I fullfilled a childhood dream and purchased my first Porsche, a 911, at the end of June. I found it at Ira Porsche (via cars.com) in Danvers, MA (North Boston). It's a 2001 and had 6900 miles when I drove it off the lot. So here's a few pics of my new ride even though I've been a member of rennlist.com for a couple of months. Kevin

POST 2Original post

Nice, good to see different colors...haven't seen too many greens!

POST 3Original post

Looks great! I don't think I've ever seen a green one.

POST 4Original post

Nice car! I'll bet the first drive wasn't any fun. I've only had mine for three weeks and every time I get in it I think "This is really my car!"

POST 6Original post

Hey Kevin, Welcome!! Are you by any chance near the southern part of VA. We have one of the biggest event tomorrow and throughout the weekend. Concours/Fun drive/dinner tomorrow & AutoCross Sunday. Here's the link. 24~26 DE at VIR. Here are thelinks: http://fst.pca.org/files/patrioticweekend.pdf http://fst.pca.org/motoring.htm http://fst.pca.org/events.htm http://fst.pca.org/

POST 7Original post

Nice and somewhat rare color, I like it! Congrats and enjoy!

POST 8Original post

Sweet ride! IRA Porsche is about 10 minutes drive from my house. Mind me asking what you paid? I'm considering getting a 996 myself!

POST 10Original post

Congrats. Glad to hear of someone else realising a childhood dream.

POST 11Original post

I'm glad to see other Virginians in this board. Congratulations on the car. There aren't a lot of green 996's in the area -- most of them are silver or blue. Check out http://www.dorkiphus.com too. It's a local P-car board.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks all. This is the 17th car I've owned in 17 years of driving and by far the best I've ever owned. Carrera Mike - I live in Portsmouth but am currently 4 months in to a 6 month school for the Navy in Newport, RI. I'll be back home just before Thanksgiving. I did go to the PCA Northeast's Porschefest 2005 at the Museum Of Transportion In Brookline, MA today. Great show! Hundreds of P-cars. Monabaker - $43K out the door (including tax, tag, and title) with a clear bra and 2 year certified used warranty until 7/07. Programmatore - thanks for the link! Kevin

POST 13Original post

Excellent color combination. Green & Savannah Beige are classic. Does the interior have any contrasting trim pieces? Post a picture of the interior. To finish if off, consider changing the Carrera logo to silver, the wheels to Carrera II wheels (not a fan of turbo wheels, especially polished), and the brake calipers to red. Some would make the side markers clear, but the amber sets good with the green, so leave them alone. Green is one of the less than 1% colors for Porsche, truly distinctive. I plan on having my Cayman done in Forest Green with Terra-cotta leather. You have a very good looking car, Congratulations. but beware you are going to be addicted very quickly

POST 14Original post

Nice color. Fairly rare. Probably the second or third one of that color that I have seen.Congrats. Enjoy her!

POST 15Original post

Congratulations! I bought mine about a year ago fulfilling and equal childhood dream (it took me 30 yrs to get mine). Enjoy it only gets better!

POST 16Original post

Congrats No feeling like driving your dream.....I think we all know that feeling

POST 17Original post

I haven't seen that color combination very often...I really like it. Congratulations. One good thing about growing up is that we get to fulfill those dreams we had when we were kids. That car really catches the eye. chuck

POST 18Original post

The car looks great!!! I got mine last summer fulfilling a lifelong dream! You'll enjoy every minute of it.

POST 20Original post

Very rare color indeed. Cheap nice upgrade is to do the clear corner markers [cost like $50 and you can put them in in 5 mins]--will make it look a lot better. Congrats and welcome to the Porsche family--watch out for that slippery slope of mods you are sure to start going down from lurking around here!

POST 21Original post

Very nice and unusual color. I just fulfilled my own childhood dream a couple of months ago with a 2000 996 cab. And tonight, I officially started down the all too well known slippery slope of mods (just ordered the SmartTOP). The next ones will probably be the clear markers, the B&M shifter, a new rear center console and perhaps a front spoiler and side skirts. All I can say is: This is bliss! _______________________ JM 2000 996 CAB (= avatar, although the actual pic is temporarily borrowed from someone else)

My Boxster was Rainforest Green, nice color and great car. Enjoy!
