This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
When I got mine I waxed it so much that water started to bead and run off an inch before it touched the paint.

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.

Just bought my 996 from someone up in VA from a classified here on Rennlist and am enjoying it very much. While polishing the plastics today I got inspired to take this shot! Ralph
Thanks D and P. It's my first and I'm very excited. I've driven and cared for my 944 going on 30 years now so the jump to this crazy car is proving to be LOTS of fun! Ralph
Thanks guys and yes I'm loving it; so much that I'm seriously thinking of selling my 84 944 that I've had since new. I'm down in Tampa BTW; we drove up to see the car in VA, bought it on the spot, turned around and drove it home with my girlfriend faithfully following all the way. Crazy 3 days!
No, the seller did an excellent job of listing the car and had all the docs to support every maintenance item. Besides how well the car looked what really swayed us was the fact that ALL the RIGHT maintenance items were completed recently. IMS (LN), Tires, Brakes, Rotors, Pads, RMS, Clutch etc etc...
Thanks Randy, I'm probably going to refinish the rims fairly soon, did you do yours? I'm new to 996 so don't know all the available options yet. As a matter of fact I'm searching for a nice 04 Sales Brochure on EBay but have come up with lots of different ones...at this point too many to choose from... Ralph
