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'll be driving from Long Island to NJ, about an hour and a half. Anything I should do before the drive--any tips or tricks I don't know about?

POST 4Original post

Congratulations, you are going to love it. You are keeping the 944 right? It's a great combination of Porsche's I promise you. I have 944 S, for a fun Sunday drive, and the 996 for a thrashing Sunday drive. Enjoy it in good health!!

POST 5Original post

be careful with the road in NYC and NJ. u would kill your self if you damage your rim before making home. cong~~~~~~~~~~~

POST 6Original post

Bring some chapstick, you will be smiling from ear to ear for a long drive and you will want to stay comfortable!

POST 8Original post

Wear some "Depends" 'cuz you'll have so much fun on the drive home, your going to **** your pants!

POST 9Original post

If you take the Garden State, bring plenty of quarters

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ah, most importantly--I'll bring my EZ pass! Thanks for reminding me! I will be selling my 944 - keeping 2 Porsches isn't in the budget, and I really don't like driving the 944 anymore. I need more creature comfort, which is why I am buying this 996! Beauty of NJ roads is the 65 mph speed limit, which means I can go 75 with no trouble - rear spoiler engaging and everything! Also, thanks to Rennlist, and Renntech, I already purchased two replacement ignition switches at $14 each on ebay! Will replace the one in my future car ASAP!

POST 11Original post

e-z pass and a good radar detector. hope the weather is good for you. It will be one of the most memorable rides ever. oh....that is until you get going on some twisty roads. Enjoy!!

POST 13Original post

think twice before you decide how to enter a gas station to refill.

POST 14Original post

congrats! details? specs, mileage, etc. pre-delivery pics?

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It's all in a thread titled "Nice Arctic C2 on Long Island"....some photos are there as well. Radar detector is built into the dash...but I don't know how to use it yet!

POST 16Original post

Well, until you hit the GSP you probably don't have to worry about going too fast. Traffic on Long Island and through Staten Island is usually brutal on a Friday night. And depending on what time you hit the GSP things could be equally slow there. At least it isn't summer yet. If it was, you would have one long slow trip home.

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Not going through SI on the way home. Plan to take the LIE, to the Northern State, into the city, then through the Lincoln Tunnel.

POST 18Original post

congrats and good luck. youre gonna love it... but you already know that. i would avoid going thru the city if at all poss but being that youre in bayonne(i think), i suppose gw isnt an option? i would try not hitting the lincoln before 8pm. maybe have dinner in LI before you head out... going cross town(east side - west side) is brutal i think from 4pm-7pm due to rush hour traffic and the theater crowd. enjoy the drive!

POST 19 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah, good points about cross town traffic! I can take the GWB, or the Tri Borough - I live in Morris County, not Bayonne.

POST 20Original post

congrats.... make sure you take some pics for us.....

POST 21 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Oh, I will. Once I swap out the colored center caps for nice concave black crested ones (from my 944)! Thanks for the good wishes everyone!

POST 22Original post

Andy..congrats on the purchase..that will be one rough nite trying to get to sleep.

POST 23 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ha, yeah. I'll sleep easier AFTER I pick the car up knowing I have a warranty. My option is to get one year of coverage, or, spend another $400 and get two years (like a CPO). I figure one year should be long enough to get the bugs worked out of a low milage car that might have been sitting too long. On the other hand, for another $400, I would have 2 years of coverage. This is with GE AWS warranty service. Covers all major parts with a $200 deductible, including electronics and seals. $1575 for one year, $2100 for 2. This is only available from a dealer when you buy the car. Porsche dealer gets paid seamlessly to me, and they cover dealer repair rates. What should I do?

POST 24Original post

Congrats! I just picked up my c2 artic as well a few weeks ago, loving it! As far as warranty goes I did not opt to get one at the time I bought it due to having Porsche check it out but I was told I can come back later and get it as well. Good luck and have fun!

POST 25Original post

What would I do? Get the one year and spend the other $400 on mods. Why....for piece of mind and comfort knowing tha IF anything should within that one year that I am covered.
