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.

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
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.
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.
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
Congrats! Nothing like getting your dream car!
Love the interior offset with yellow stitching, very cool! I would lose the amber turn signals pronto though!
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!
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.
