Hi all....
I thought it was about time to come out of the fray and introduce myself. I have wanted a 911 since high school and finally bought a '99 996 c2 in Oct05... Guards Red, black supple leather interior, LSD, 18" turbo wheels and PSE ( awesome exhaust note !! ).
I originally looked to buy 3.2 Carrera or a 964, but during my search I made the mistake of test driving a 996 and that was it ...... game over. I loved the extra power, and the refinement of the 996 was a bonus !!
I also have an '88 924S that I use as my daily driver in the winter and for DE. I am fairly active in the local PCA ( Lincoln Trail Region) doing autocrosses and DE's with my 19 yr old son. I plan to do my first DE with the 996 ( or "Big Red" as my son like to to call her) this spring at Putnam.
I attached a photo hope it works........
Yes, I know, it still has the amber side lights, but on red I think it looks OK.
Cheers!!!
