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.

26 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

this is pretty dumb, but I washed the car and took some pics... unless you are a pic ***** OH and thanks for NOT looking at the exhaust tips

POST 3Original post

good job. in winter, i just spray it down at the uspray place and drive briskly. i ignore the frozen water trails.

POST 5Original post

very nice!.... cant believe she's got 100K+ miles on her. Shows how much you've taken care of her...

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

alright quit begging for more pics Thanks for the compliments - ya pic ******!

POST 7Original post

Sweet!!! I really like how the interior works with the black seats. I wish that I could do the same, but I think that the black exterior makes it work and that it would not look right on an arena red car.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks - I thought about black - vs - savanna seats for a long time, the kicker was I could re-sell the black seats if I needed to, easier than the savanna (so I thought) I think the black would go with about any color if you add the mats, and a few other items. I want to swap the steering wheel and a couple pieces of the collumn to black as well... I also want to keep it running so there is only so much I can do on my limited budget......since I have a plethora of pieces that DONT FIT LMAO!!

POST 9Original post

Ed, you make all of us who own black 991s very proud! Especially when used in the winter months. Nice looking exterior and interior.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Barn - 27 coats of Ziano

POST 11Original post

Ed, very nice looking! Oh, and my condolences about your exhaust tips. They will be nice when they grow up!

POST 12Original post

Lucky you guys that can ride with no front license plate. Ed have you ever leather dyed the interior leather? I've been debating doing it and your steering wheel sure looks newish.

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Nope - no dye that I know of. The inside of the car is very clean. One of the reasons I fell in love with it. Since it has accident history prior to my ownership, anything is possible though. Ziano on the steering wheel too - I am always amazed how much dirt comes off from just using the conditioner, I don't use the cleaner though I have a bottle of that too It just didn't fit (hahahaha)

Wouldn't a set of GT3 tips look great there, Ed? Your car is a feast for the eyes, really. Do those seats tilt to allow access to the rear, or is that area inaccessible for anything that won't fit between the seatbacks?

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No tilt, skinny kids only! I almost got stuck back there cleanin the windows last summer, now I move one forward, one back and go between them. Its a biatch no doubt, but one I do not regret. I love the seats! Do they make GT2 tips for C2? I already had a set of Turbo - yea... They didn't fit Thanks for the compliments (and jabs!)

POST 16Original post

Quotes source post: 7271888

hahahaha... I got stuck back there once, gt3 seats and a rollbar.

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hard to explain to your family and friends... Soooo, the car you spend all your time and money on "trapped" you in the back seat? They surely would just not understand - and who can blame them

POST 18Original post

Ed, you need the GT3 center console delete... And just clean the damn tips already - about 3 minutes with a piece of steel wool, and you're done. (Well, they'll look a lot better. If you want them to really shine, after the steel wool, use a Luster Lace polishing strip.)

POST 19Original post

911 phone call- may we help you sir? police or fire department sir?

POST 20 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 7271999

NO - please, I was washing my car and got stuck in the back seat......... -Van, 3 more minutes on the car today and I would be on the couch tonight.....maybe I will sneak a quicky clean after work tomorrow night....3 minutes seems like it might be do-able .... but a bit of a rip off for my car, she deserve SO much more time doing the...... OH shoot.... nevermind

POST 21Original post

Once I start cleaning I feel bad when not doing the whole car parts off cleaning.

POST 23Original post

Looks awesome Ed. I washed mine in the garage yesterday too...

POST 24Original post

We need 24 hour 7 days a week exotic car washes with banked tracks to air dry our cars. Well maybe just the wash would work.

POST 25 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
