Suggestion
i've heard good things about ncrc, not so packed like nasa and you get to run with non-porsches.
Leading evidence: 'Run with non-porsches' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run with non-porsches' (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.

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.

talk about custom! I found this on e-bay. Thought you purists would get a kick out of this. Don't they come from the factory this way??

That's a german ricer. Only a total poser would drive that thing. It does have some really nice stuff on it but the fake turbo and giant wing is stupid. Seats and the system among other things look good.
ohhh, thats blunt C4
amazingly, the mods are rather tastefully done (when compared to other ricers). makes the car a piggy, but what the hell.
probably would have been cheaper to actually buy a turbo cab.
all in all, an asinine excersize.
Tpitpit,
I have a cab myself in addition to my GT3 so cool it. Please have some room for a bit of sarcasm. With 11 posts, I would be a bit more careful with whom you tell to grow up!

Well, to me it does not look ricey at all....99 cab. platform is no slouch, granted it's no turbo, but still a great car, now add the huge brembo's and the suspension work etc. that has been done to the car, surely it's got to handle better than the stock 99 cab.
For the looks, I've seen similar aerokits and the spoiler on various 911's here..if you want bling, this is the ultimate. So, what's wrong with it. As long as you actually don't fall into the trap and drag race anyone, the buyer shoukld be O.K.
But, is it for me HELL NO....I still have my amber blinkers for god sake, and I'll hunt and do serious bodily harm to anyone installing any spoiler on my beauty.
Anybody catch that "for additional price" you can upgrade to Supercharger or Twin Turbo's??? All in all it is a nicely done conversion. But still WAY to rice for me. For that kind of coin I would have just bought a TT!
It doesn't come close to the pink panther 996 or the multi-colored CAB that has been on eBay for the last 3 years!
I like the alcanta/suede interior but I'd lose the video screens. The exterior is a bit over-the-top for my taste but it looks pretty well executed. The fit and paint job look pretty good. I have seen worse widebody conversions. Remember this car? What the hell is with the gap between the doors and front fenders?!
From what over paid -pimp my ride -athlete is this car from?
The local P car dealer last fall had an 04 c4s cab from a recently traded chicago bear that had roughly 40k in bling on it - full c fiber, wheels, stereo etc. that the last price I saw on it was 70,000 which means they would prob take low 60's - ouch what a hit in one year.
Alot of guys in the aftermarket business will build a car like this to show all their products as installed, so its cool in that respect.
Hey at least it isn't advertising an extermination business, and has a dead roach on top
I do have a problem with the TURBO badge, just too dishonest
What NBA baller lost his mind on this one? It's a pretty car, built on an absolutely ridiculous chassis, at obscene cost. Whoever commissioned it is brain dead, which raises a whole host of questions about the car before this process started. Overall, I think it's worth less than a stock cab, and possibly less than a stock coupe.
Why invoke the Ben Keaton memorial and resond with "eat me"? Very unBen-like IMHO. Doesn't the original assertion merit a more rapier-like response? AS
wow alex,
seems like you are taking the high road aren't you... NOT! first making prejudicial remarks "NBA baller" then commenting that riad is taking the low road. you are so much the better person. i guess it's the case of "do as i say not as i do"
Cool it down guys. I basically fled the german 'Elfertreff' forum because I couldn't stand that watercooled vs aircooled bs anymore. So please don't start a cab vs coupe fight. It's senseless. Here in germany a lot of cabs are driven by mostly blond women in their mid-fifties*. Do I hate it? You bet! Does that make me a 55 year old woman when I buy a cab? I don't think so.
*whoever came up with the idea of the tiptronic - shouldn't we collect some money for a professional hitman to track him?
Well IMHO I think it is gorgious. I love cabs and there isn;t anything wrong in modding a 996 cab to that detail. The only thing I don;t like is the colour. I can picture it would look fantastic in basalt black or seal grey......hell zenith blue even
No go considering all the mods and false advertising from every angle.
I'm not into the fake badging thing, no less absurd than a Maranello Fiero to me. Only a moron would try to get away with that. There's nothing wrong with stock 996 power, so why the need to embellish?
As for the mods, not really to my liking, but to each his own.
BTW, I had a 3.4 996 for >6 years and am well aware of its capabilities.
i was just kidding. it was all tongue in cheek. what i was getting at was it still has plenty of go as you, a former NA996 owner, would know
.
i agree the fakie turbo badge is stewpit.
buttonwillow with pca-ggr 25th-26th with an option to do the 24th with central coast region. i've heard good things about ncrc, not so packed like nasa and you get to run with non-porsches. eventually i would like to do the ggr time trial series.
I did that "day before" event with Central Coast @ BW 2 years ago and it was great. Lots more track time than GGR for less $$$. Do it, you'll thank me afterwards.
NCRC is good, but their events are starting to get much more crowded with time trials, races, etc. I liked it better in the past.
