Time to start the mods, there�s no use trying to resist, you are under P car control.
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.

hello all,
I have just found this site on the day I bought my first Porsche. A 2001 C4. CPO 36K, Black on Black, manual. Just drove it back from the dealer. 175 miles on the highway. Then, got it home and ran it through some familiar twists.
I bow down to the machine.
I am now like a P junkie looking for my next fix. "When canI get back in and where can I drive it", is constantly running through my mind.
Glad to find the site and see there are others with the same mindset.
I have attached pictures as I do not want to upset anyone on my first post.
Nice car. Got mine a few weeks ago and I can tell you enjoy it as much as I do. Every time I got out to the garage I stop and look at the car in amazement that it's there and it's mine. A dream come true.
PJunkie - Welcome and congrats! Thanks for posting the pics! Makes my "job" a lit easier!
Watch your wallet, These guys will have you considering mods you didn't even know existed! They love helping others spent their money. Oh and speaking of mods, yo might want to consider....
Bumper Plugs (already mentioned)
Clear side markers (already mentioned)
There is a thread here that has instructions on how to remove the amber lense in your headlights
Aluminum gauge rings
Aluminum pedals
B&M short shifter kit (I am assuming you have a manual tranny)
Install a "spoiler" switch on the dash
Paint your calipers red (they would look good against your black beauty)
Silver hood crest & silver steering wheel crest
I guess I'll stop now, 'cuz your just about out of money! More next month!
Again, congrats and welcome!
Thanks for all the warm welcomes and lots of sound advice. I am so stoked to be driving this vehicle! Today on the way to work I got stopped by a cop going in the opposite direction coming around a twist. I had my radar detector on and nothing buzzed. He said he stopped me because, "You just looked like you were going fast" Hmmm......"looked like"? Not this time, sir.
Unfortunately for me as an ex ski racer, i love to go fast. Especially in the curves. And as I am finding out this is the machine to curve in.
In reply to some of the comments and questions:
I found the site through a google search.
The holes in the front bumber will unfortunately be where the license plate goes when it arrives.
swede matt- I hear you. all the same.
I have checked out the photos of all of your cars and am so pleased to be amongst this group. What gorgeous vehicles!
I second this. Join your local Porsche Club. Go to the National site
http://www.pca.org/
, and then your local branch. Mine has over 500 members and there's a lot of fun activities. One is learning to drive safely at speed. You do this at the track with strict safety rules and an instructor riding with you. FUN!! Or at an autocross where you go to a local LARGE parking lot where orange traffic cones are set up to drive around, slowly at first, then as fast as you can. Again FUN!! And you'll learn a lot, and be a lot safer on the street. Enjoy your new car!
Sweet ride, like a couple of young fellows said, I was close by "look at that sick Porsche man"
To bad about the front plate, require one up here too sucks but we all have 'em....
Safe driving
PJunkie - I'm NY down on LI and have gone without the front plate since last August -when I bought the car. Been pulled over three times for it - still no ticket - I keep the plate on the passenger side and when pulled over I explain that the bracket broke and I had to order a new one from the delaer - but here's the plate.
Only problem is that one officer in the local precinct - the first to stop me - recently spotted me in a parking lot and mentioned out his window that he "noticed that my front plate wasn't on yet -didn't you tell me you were putting it on about 6 months ago " !!
My days are probably numbered but I just can't bring myself to put it on !
In no way do I endorse or suggest anything to anyone - just a off the cuff comment or 2.
I'm probably going to jinx myself for posting this but since I'm a brave man I'll do it anyway....
I've never had a front plate on my Z3...and I've had it as a daily driver for many years. I've never even gotten stoped for it. Got pulled over for other stuff twice but the cops didn't even mention the missing front plate. Maybe California is more lenient with enforcing front plate laws?
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
