Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
A few years back I was running a series called NASPORT.
Leading evidence: 'Run series called nasport' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run series called nasport' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
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.

It's more *everything* than I expected. More cool, more fast. more raw, more better looking, more instant connection with me!
I've just joined up, but I'm not sure if I can post pictures - let's try. First the new car in my driveway, then a shot of me and the old car at Laguna Seca, and last, my first contact with the new car. That's my mom and dad who heroically cannonballed the 996 from Chicago IL to Bellingham WA in 3.5 days. I exported the car the next day (today) and within 10 days it will be licensed and we'll begin our new lives together for real.
First impressions are GREAT! I found myself laughing out loud at least three times over the 100 or so miles I drove it today. Mindblowing acceleration and every inch a real Porsche (but you already knew that).
WOW!!! Nice car my friend.
Glad she is here, now about all the guff I took about the 996 being to luxurious...
welcome to the water cooled world along with the heat and air conditioning.
Enjoy. Hoisting one for you tonight.
Geoff
PS,
Love the wheels
Beautiful car! Love the wheels and just the way it looks. BTW, picked up the exhaust direction on your Laguna car. A few years back I was running a series called NASPORT. I towed all the way up with my GT-4 car to Laguna unloaded and the first session Saturday got a SOUND violation going up the hill. Tried to pack the exhaust the best I could but got another violation on the second session and put the car on the trailer and headed the 375 miles back to So Cal. I could not turn my exhausts around - UUUUU VRY SMAAAT FELLOW!
I have NEVER gone back to Laguna to race again.
I love your car, enjoy in good health and safe driving. eric
Heya
... glad to see the car made it over with no trouble. Looks good!
Now remember to wait a couple of days then call RIV to see if they can email you the Form2
Thanks for the comments people. I guess the particulars are scarce.
The car was built in April 2002, delivered in May 2002 at Champion Porsche in Florida. Traded in to Brumos three years later, and they sold it to my PO who imported to Indiana. He had it for a year, decided he wanted a 993, and sold it to me.
No PSM, plush leather, Carbon fibre trim package, bose stereo and bixenon lights (is that the same as Litronic - I think so eh?). No rear window wiper, no heated or memory seats. It's a low option car which suits me fine. I am anxiously awaitng a chance to put it on the scales at work and me and my buddy Geoff (GNR996 to you all) will be doing so in early May I expect. He's got a fairly high optioned 2003 model (you have full power seats don't you Geoff) so it will be interesting to see how it all shakes out.
Anyway - just finished driving the 911 (the real 911) to it's secure underground storage space. The two cars are not really comparable. I can't believe there's a new Porsche in my carport. Do you have any idea what one of those things cost new !?!
Excellent! I gotta say seal grey with the Carrera rims is my second favorite combo!
Looks like a great car, I know that feeling!! Now, rip that spring out of the cluch pedal and enjoy!
