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.

Now I just have to wait until spring to enjoy it. Can't get here soon enough. Gonna be a long 2+ months.
Great forum. Lots of good info that helped me weigh the big decisions and know what to look for and ask for.
Polar silver is the coolest colour!
Cool thing about this colour is that sometimes it looks blue and sometimes it looks silver. depends on the cloud cover that day.
change out that side marker and it really looks sharp
Thanks for the posts. I dont have many pictures as the dealer is storing the car for me until spring. I'll post more pics when I get it home. For now I am driving my 2012 WRX which is a blast.
Been thinking about buying a 911 for a couple of years. Finally decided to pull the trigger last fall (with wifes permission of course) while driving with my dad. We saw two 911s during a short trip and both times he commented how nice they looked and wouldn't it be nice to drive one. I thought, not getting any younger. Do it.
Car has never seen a winter. I was able to track it to the original and only owner who took European delivery and confirmed back story the dealer had provided. PPI went well and CarFax was clean and indicated oil change/service each Spring and Fall. I plan to make this my daily driver during the warmer months.
Just had IMSB and RMS replaced. Checked clutch which is in good shape (car only has 31k miles on it). New brakes and rubber. Full service records. It also has M030(US) suspension. Should be good to go in the spring but going into it with my eyes wide open (stuff happens) thanks to the posts on this forum.
No mods which was exectly what I was looking for. Going to spend some time experiencing the car in its original state (IMS and RMS excepted) and see where it goes from there.
Bollux to getting new side markers. Leave the pumpkins as is. It looks nice and original and not messed around with. Happy motoring. I still have my pumpkin side markers on the car.
...says the guy with the huge PORSCHE lettering on his rear bumper...
I like the pumpkins on lighter colored cars. On darker cars, I prefer the smoked or clear markers. It's all a matter of personal taste...
lol +1
ya i think the lighter ones really help out the overall...only a couple colours on the car instead of a bunch. it actually blends nicely with the headlights and the polar silver and the rims.
