After I replace the wheels my next change will probably be to get the RoW M030 suspension.

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 just picked up a really nice 2002 996 manual coupe. Seal gray over graphite gray, IMS/RMS/clutch all recently done. 49k miles. I bought it replace my recently sold 2006 997 Carrera S. I honestly just like the 996 better than the 997 having owned both over the years. Yes the 997 had better torque and looked pretty sweet but a well set up 996 drives so damn well. My only gripe is the 993/early 996 turbo look wheels. I would like to get a nice set of MY02/Carrera II wheels (which it was originally delivered with according to the window sticker). If anyone has a set please PM me.
Thanks!
Me too. I have owned 3 964s and a 993 and sold them all before the values skyrocketed!
Thanks, me too.
I'll post some interior pics.
Thanks, I'm in CT. PM sent
Nice.
Welcome to the club.
I have 4 sets of wheels for my 996.
None of them T Twists.
You can pick up a nice set of P wheels for your 996 under 1k all day long. If you do go larger size to fill out fenders.
Yes. 18s forsure but you can go bigger width. 6GT3 size best for our narrow body cars. Sport II are fantastic with spacers. PCA.org classifieds good place to shop as is RL.
Looks like a great car, love that color. My 4S has that same deviated gray/black interior w/o the black parking brake and shifter. Had been thinking of making that exact change and helps to see a pic. Enjoy!!
Congrats! It looks like a really nice car.
I have an almost two year head start on you but had the same things that I wanted to address early on. I've never cared for the Turbo Twists either and my interior had even
more
gray than yours.
If you're ever REALLY bored you can check out what I did in my first year of ownership.

Thanks guys. SoCal I actually read your post a couple of weeks ago. Very impressive job on your 996. After I replace the wheels my next change will probably be to get the RoW M030 suspension.
