Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

The Porsche ad didn't say it was the perfect car for heading North to paint a sailboat, but it was close.
Leading evidence: 'perfect car' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'perfect car' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
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.

Picked it up last week - finally took some pics after going on a roadtrip. It's a bit dusty/dirty (but I still love black).
Glad to have found the forum.
Obligatory pics:
Got up to paint the sailboat this week. Tooks some pics.
Picked up locally (I'm in Cambridge) with 117 kms on it. Black on Grey, 6-speed, 1/3 of an aero kit (original owner was in TN - is that common there?).
I simply love driving this. It's a tank. It's light and precise. It's both. Just steering it around make me feel like a laser guided weapon.
(Can you tell it's my first P-car?)
It does match the boat insofar as the bottomsides were painted black. The rest of the hull is navy...
Oh - the camera's the first generation of Canon's Digital Rebel. Just keeps on not dying, so no justification for a new one.
Welcome to Rennlist and Congrats on getting the C4! Thanks for the pics!
Damn Newbies, now they're all posting pics right away! I haven been able to yell at one of them in over a month!
I appreciate the welcome. I figured pics better come first - though I could tell the flames were well meant.
First up: Garage door targa button hack...
Yes - the boat got the annual antifouling. Another forum may hear my tale of stupidity related to the boat batteries at launch time. The Porsche ad didn't say it was the perfect car for heading North to paint a sailboat, but it was close.
My wife took the babysitter home in the coupe this weekend - barely smelled any clutch.
Thanks for the welcome - this was a great forum for an avid buyer and fresh owner. I hope to be able to contribute in turn.
