Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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'm the proud new owner of a 1999 C2 Coupe, 6spd. It seems to have all the right options, artic silver, full supple metropol leather, traction control, hifi sound. Overall stunning condition with 47K and decent service records from Herb Chambers Porsche from new. Has a relatively recent clutch, RMS, and brakes rotors.
Just had it delivered to Philadephia from NH sight unseen!! I must be out of my mind, but for once made a great purchase.
Only needs minor items if that. The last porsche I had was a one owner 1983 928. Liked that car, but nothing compared to the Carrera...like most of us around here, just fulfilling my childhood dreams!!
I look forward to posting in the future.

Thanks to all. I also have a 2000 MB S500 that is mint and thought of trading that for a late model Quattroporte. Decided to keep it and add the Carrera to the mix. Boy I'm glad I did. After researching numerous cars (basically all I do), I have to say the 996 is an amazing value hands down. I even just about convinced my wife this was a good investment..haha!
Now onto the projects, extensive detail of every square inch, plus every service item I can think of...I like to start fresh on service. Ordered up the later ambient lighting. I have that in the M-B and just love it. Leatherique the seats. I think I want the fister exhaust upgrade too.
This car has the "invisible" bra. It's protected the paint well, but I'm considering removing, I just don't like the color variation.
Nice! Congrats. Looks like you are prepared to spend some money on modifications. Here's my first suggestion... get rid of the stupid CD holder and replace it with at simple cubby that 's actually useful. The CD tray just pulls out. Get at new cubby at bumperplugs.com
Enjoy!
It looks like you found a keeper, congrats on fulfilling out your childhood dream
Look forward to see what you do with it. We offer many service kits for your 99'

for more information. Enjoy, you got a beauty.
Actually the hinge seems to work perfectly. In particular the interior of this car has virtually no marks or signs of wear. I can tell the car was not abused.
The exterior has exactly two dings which my dent guy is scheduled to resolve this weekend. Two rims have minor scrapes, that's getting sorted on Friday!
The hinge on the center console of my ARTIC SILVER 996 is fine.
and so is my cd holder and ashtray and original bose radio haha

What's wrong with having a cd case for your cd changer?
You kid's with your mp3's and U-Verse streaming, dvr, bull$hit. Back in my day....

Back in my day we couldn't afford to heat the house... My dad would suck extra strong mint candy and us kids would all sit around his tongue lol.
I have no issue with cd's. My car still rocks a cd changer (in the frunk). It's the cheap cd holder drawer thing I dislike. It takes up an entire slot in the dash, and only holds 4 CDs, without the cases. The cubby is a better use of the space.
He was in Hancock, NH. Pretty good guy and gave a 100 percent accurate description of the car. It was, however, serviced at Herb Chambers Porsche in Boston, I believe.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
