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.

I lurked these forums for a few weeks to do research before purchasing my very first Porsche.
I've had fond memories of Pcars (and their sound) since riding in the backseat of a '79 whale tale with big green racing stripe as an 8 year old ...
Now that I've registered I wish to introduce myself and my newly aquired ride:
2003 Carrera Coupe
Arctic Silver with Black Interior
Xenon Headlamp Package
Special Chassis Rigidly Tuned
Bose Sound Package
18" Alloy Carrera Wheels
Center Console Alu-look
Heated Sport Seats to match
Porsche Crest in Headrest
Alu-Shifter & Brake Handle
Purchased from original owner just under 50,000 miles, includes Lojack
New Pzero tires and 2 year/100,000 mile Porsche warranty
Wohoo!
I took it right off the original sticker but I believe it either refers to the structural design change from it's Mk1 996 predecessors and the
X74 suspension
or
RoW M030 suspension
which lowers and stiffens the chassis.
.
Welcome aboard! Nice ride - I really like that alum-look console. I plan on getting mine painted to match the exterior (also Arctic Silver) and it will probably look a lot like that. Nice jobs with the pics!

What part of So Cal? I'm trying to place the background that you used for the gauge shot... So Cal, to those of us in San Diego, is anywhere south of Camp Pendleton... a little more constrained than most definitions...

Schuetzenweber meet Meister Fahrer.
Meister Fahrer, Schuetzenweber.
Bist Du Deustch?
I know that spot well, quite a landmark before you get into Laguna.
You should add your city to your profile, there are quite a few 996'ers in MV.
