I recently moved out to Texas and managed to convince my SO that a sports car would go a long way to smoothing my transition back to the southwest. After a brief, but intense period of research I settled on a 996. At the end of July, we found a 2000 CC2 that had low miles and got a clean bill of health from a PPI. 2500 miles later, I have to say that this is a very fun car to drive!
Since this was my first Porsche, I had a lot of reading up to do and thanks to you fine folks, I�ve learned a ton about this beast!
Beautiful white cab.
Lots of fun and great information here.You don't see many white 996. My first Porsche was a white 911 Carrera, have fun enjoying yours.
Welcome! Here are the two suggestions I have for new users:
1) Pay for membership (you already did this!)
2) Add KrazyK to your ignore list.
Enjoy that 996 - especially in a climate where there is no storage season for Porsches!
Thanks for the welcome! Yes, membership to RL has already paid for itself many times over...although reading about everyone's mods will probably lead me to put a sizable dent in my bank account
Retirement is for sissies anyway!

Cabs are the best. White is good looking.
As to mods - must haves for handling - Installed 997 shifter as my '04 996 shifter was sticky & sloppy. Row030 suspension installed as orig. was soft and front end float was scary - now firmly planted and feels to me how the car should have been originally, while keeping the car stock. Other mods are either aesthetic - I like the car they way it is - or performance - IMHO 320 hp is quite adequate. But did do the Fister exhaust hack - now sounds like 300+ hp car.
Whatever you decide to do - you will have great time with this car. Enjoy!
