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.

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

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

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

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.

POST 3Original post

Good looking 996. I like your 964 in your avatar too. I'm still kicking myself for selling mine years ago.

POST 4Original post

Nice. I�ve got the same wheels on my �04. I�ll change them out eventually. Not sure to what... TC

POST 5Original post

Congrats and welcome! I really like the Seal Gray.

POST 6Original post

Welcome and your car looks amazing! Best exterior color IMO. Any interior pictures?

POST 7Original post

I have a set for sale. Where abouts you located? Im in MN. congratulations on the new car.

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

POST 10Original post

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.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Gray is not my favorite interior color (would prefer black) but I do like the black carpet and lower door panels which tones the gray down a bit.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 15718723

Thanks. Any leads on wheels would be appreciated! I definitely want to stick with 18s though.

POST 13Original post

Great looking car! Congrats! I think a set of MY02 lightweight wheels would look great on your car. Good luck with the search!

POST 14Original post

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.

POST 15Original post

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. https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...onth-long.html

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

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.
