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 2Original post

No, but there should be an options sticker in the inside of the hood. Take down the codes and enter them in option decoder under General->Opt. Decoder on the left nav. Welcome to the forum. How about a brief intro and pictures of your car -- it's tradition here.

POST 3Original post

just call 800porsche and give the vin. they can give the options and build and sales date and all the warrantee service history.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ahh great, thanks for the info. Well, I paid for my car today, but its on the other coast and i dont get to drive it home to los angeles until March 12th when my work schedule will allow me to make the trek across the US. I could ship it, but I think its going to be fun with a buddy to do the drive in my shiny sorta-new 911. So hopefully i'll be able to post a picture very soon, look for a Black/Black 99 C2 with aero kit, carbon fiber and only 14,000 miles. My 3rd Gen RX7 did me proud for 8 years but its time to move on after I blew the motor. hehehe very much looking forward to my first Porsche.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well actually, I guess i do have a photo I can share. Although it just doesnt feel right since its not in my garage yet. Anyway, here she is.

Sweet car! Complete GT3-Mk I Aerokit to boot! Definitely get the clear headlights (or the Litronic headlights) and sidemarkers. Congratulations on the new car!
