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.

22 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Cool - that would be me: Jeez I love this car... - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums Since the pics above, I've replaced the taillights with OEM, the Sport Design wheels are back from being refinished, and I had it detailed top to bottom. I'm still looking for a tEquipment rollbar. 12/98 build date. No LSD. It's a keeper. I just wish I'd have bought another one several years ago when they were cheap.

lol thanks. Last time someone said something similar, calling me a genius in the BMW M2 CS forum and then asked which stock to buy. I told him Xpel at $30 per share. He bought it, it went up to $90 per share a few months later. No stock advice for you though, you added too many capital letters to your post

POST 21Original post

the endless irrelevant bragging in this AUTOMOTIVE forum is nauseating

POST 22Original post

Quotes source post: 17738053

Not quite: Mertz first predicated that prediction with the qualifier: “If we exclude the Turbo..” No doubt the early-1999 is a collectible treasure, and any XAA MKI is also highly prized. But the Mezgers are the prima facie appreciation leader for Types 996 and 997 both now, and for any foreseeable future. My personal opinion is the Mezgers will eventually surpass even the 964/993 market performance. IE the “only” of something both significant and excellent, will far exceed the “last” of anything excellent. The Mezger GT1 powerplant was the first, the last, and the only. And the Mezger may have had a “964..” part number, but nothing 964 cannot touch it. The Mezger 996/997 dwells with 962 & 959. Forever.
