My new 996 GT2

Here are some photos since I haven't posted them yet. Got clear bra installed on hood, mirrors, fenders, and rear wheel arches. Have a couple of chips on the front bumper that will be fixed before putting one on the front bumper. F430 Spider is a buddy's car that he had for 2 months before selling, he flips cars constantly. 4th photo is my Co-Pilot Zoey.

After I WD40'd the front shock holes, the suspension has quieted up quite a bit. Can't believe people don't drive these cars, car is a 2002 with only 3500 miles. Also love the fact that people don't know what it is. They are such a steal right now at over 50% depreciation. Waiting for the Scuderia's to hit $150k, but probably a year or two away from that happening.

Just teasing about the co-pilot thing, but she is my fiance's co-pilot, goes with her everywhere. Braman was awsome to deal with, car was shipped from Florida to Wash. St. in 7 days enclosed. Car even has the little "limited" silver block / statue thing that comes with GT2's.

Will have to think about the SSK kit, I put one in my FD RX-7, and it made it pretty notchy. Seems to be 3 kits: B&M, 997 SSK, and EVO kit.

I know what you mean - every time I glance at mine under the cover. It's a 03 with 5600 miles and I'm the original owner.
