rotokim, I love the look of your car, it's a very clean look.
Leading evidence: 'Clean look' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Clean look' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

rotokim, I love the look of your car, it's a very clean look. I almost bought a 01 with the aero kit (no gt3 wheels though). It really keeps that classic Porsche look but keeps it aggressive. I just remember walking up to the car and having a feeling it was exotic.
Thanks, swift996! It turns a lot of heads - especially, mine. BTW, I lived in the DC metro area for 30 years. I was born and raised there. I'm pretty certain that I'm into Porsches because I used to trudge past Heishman Porsche-Audi after work was over and I was too broke to afford a car. I was a host at the Crystal City Marriott's restaurant. It's corny, but I promised myself that I would own a Porsche someday. It worked.
swift996 - Forgot to ask you to pls post pictures. Maybe when I'm back in the DC area (about 3 times a year), we can grab a cup of coffee. I could bring the Porsche.
Nice to see porsche on mumbai roads
...where in mumbai do you live? I keep coming to bombay for work...i have my apartment in breach candy...may be we can catch up during my next visit

I am a Mumbaikar living in the SF Bay Area ... Great to see a C4S there. How come you have Delhi plates?
If I ever move back, I'm going to bring home a 996 GT3
Hey guys... took Mr.Choi's advice and went and bought myself a 997 cab. loving it... but for some reason i can't get over my 996 c4s. so i guess i'll end up keeping her too. So now i can put the 20's on the 997 and go back to 18;s on the c4s.

Those are great pics. Something to be said about Narrow Body 996's. I still am a huge fan.
Dunno why, it seems my TT doesn't look as good? Thoughts anybody?

atta boy
996 c4s is one of the best looking watercooled 911s made. can't fault you there for wanting to keep her.
heard about mumbai thru a good buddy who made a visit recently. heard them chicks were foine there.

u def would benefit from a wing to balance it out.
if i were u i'd get the techart whale tale wing, but not sure if it fits narrowbody cars. also, consider adding the c4s/turbo front aero lip like mine. or consider the misha wings.
Quote:
+ 1 on that. I have only seen one other and it was a Turbo here in MN. What a perfect decision on a color.
Best regards and thanks for sharing.

judge, if you could only see a car with the aero lip rolling towards you v. one without one.... you'd say baby, i love you but i could love you a lil bit more with a factory aero lip on my 911.... and you'd bolt out with your visa ready to seal the deal.
it makes the car look THAT much better. static visuals don't do it justice, desn't come close
SS22, the windows are very cool, no pun intended. Hope the door tint is ok with the CHP. Yours is one of the few cars I've seen where the window tints actually fit perfectly with the overall look of the car. Cheers, jl
Looking much cleaner Swift....
Swift was nice enough to take me for a ride to check out the PSS9 and sways. She is a tight car.
Let us know how the evom and bypasses work out...
Yeah Ben, good seeing your ride too. I'm probably going to wait a little while to do the upgrades...get a few more miles on the new engine. Well, I don't know...we will see. I rode in (Berks) "boochook" C4S with the Bypass and it was furious, sounded incredible. I'm looking forward to doing it too.
Well, might as well.. here is how my 99 c2 looks.. will be getting a GT# front bumper and side skirt one day, and really want a techart wing..
pics:
I know, my wing is up.. I did a picture with it up, and one with it down, but i can't find the other one.. looks better with it down imo..
19? I remember 19, sort of anyway. '62 Chevy Impala, black/red, chrome reversed, dual exhaust, and, best of all, that big glorious back seat. wish I had a picture available... it was a Detroit iron special all the way.

That's a tight situation. My parents helped me out when I went to college but they made me sell my RX7 and buy a Sentra SE-R. My mom told me I needed to buy a new car and wanted me to buy a civic, I was barely able to strecth it to a Spec V Sentra, which was pretty gay but it did the job. Congrats, I couldn't imagine owning something so nice at that age.

caps, very pretty car. I love the Work Brombachers. have you considered getting that bottom lower lip piece to help with keeping the front down at speed? i think it looks good, too, in black. for some reason it adds to a more aggressive look in a good way.
Thanks Ben...used to have the lip, but my driveway (not me!
) dragged and dismantled her. Even without the lower lip my bumper still scrapes occasionally (damn driveway
)
Really? I think I'm lower and further out than your front lip and I have no issues ... errr rarely have any issues.
it's the center part of the car that gives me trouble sometimes over crests on the road in parking lots etc.
Maybe it's my driving skills (or absence of it)
. There's 3 places around here that's enough to keep me from installing another lip - my son's school parking (a 90 degree turn with elevated entrance), my driveway, and the gas station entry.
