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.

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

Thank you so much to those who helped me on my other thread about this purchase. I am one happy new owner! Here she is: MY 99 Speed Yellow (LOVE this color, but I know it's not for everyone) Black full supple leather interior with yellow deviated stitching and yellow belts 3 spoke steering wheel

POST 2Original post

She looks fantastic, congrats..how about some interior shots. I have never seen yellow stitching.

POST 4Original post

Love Speed Yellow , excellentchoice. Doesn't look like it needs anything. Welcome to the group

POST 5Original post

There aren't too many on the road...great color, welcome. How many miles. and which options do you have?

POST 7Original post

The car looks awesome. I drove one recently with that same color and interior and really liked it. Only difference was he had black wheels. Welcome to the club.

POST 8Original post

Wow nice looking car. Speed yellow is a great color and allows knowing where your car is in the dark driving or looking for it in the parking lot. My MGB from teenage days was speed yellow. Looks great and livens things up.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks everyone. Still can't quite believe it is sitting in my garage. It might sound cheesy, but this has been a dream since I was a kid. First it was the 944, and now something slightly different. Great to be back in a Porsche. Anyways, here are a couple pictures of the interior. Options: Litronic headlights Full supple leather interior with yellow deviated stitching Yellow seat belts 3 spoke steering wheel 18" turbo look wheels with painted crests SY paint Premium sound

POST 13Original post

What a wonderfully unique Carrera. Congratulations!

POST 14Original post

POST 15Original post

Don't really like yellow, but it sure does make a car look faaaaasssstttt!!!!

POST 17Original post

Great car! The yellow interior accents are very nice.

POST 18Original post

Love the interior! I was driving along the I-78 here in Jersey yesterday - spotted a yellow 996 Mk2 wide-body. Traffic was moderate, but we had quite a lot of fun The yellow did make it look faster.. Have fun with the car!

POST 19Original post

I like yellow....but my wife doesn't, so guess what colour car I don't have. Nice work.

POST 21 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ha! My wife doesn't really like the color either, but she knows I love it! Thanks for all the compliments! Chris

POST 25Original post

Nice! Love the yellow exterior and the stitching. Seat belts? A bit much, but so be it. Enjoy the new ride. And yes, it's Ok to stroll out to the garage in your PJ's and take one more peek before bed.
