Congratulations and welcome to the 6speed Bryan. Now you just need some Black Lug bolts to go along with those wheels For more information Click Here. Enjoy, and post up a few more pictures of the beast when you get a chance.

Looks great and I like the wheels also. The lug nuts in silver go good with the lips imo.

Thanks guys!

Porsche of Colorado Springs salesman (996tt owner and 911 racer) Robert Prilika introduced me to the 996tt... Thanks Robert!

Bought the car from Porsche North Scottsdale. They were great. They addressed all items identified during the inspection process, completed a full service, etc. Even after we had agreed upon a price and a deposit was made, I requested further inspection of a few items which resulted in replacement of both spoiler rams, micro switches, etc. Highly recommend the dealership. Representation of the car was 100% accurate.

2004, 42k miles. Previous owner traded car in for a yellow 997 Turbo.

Lightly optioned (heated seats, cd changer, ss sill plate, al/leather shifter and p-brake handle). I wouldn't mind having a bit more leather but otherwise love the interior.

Accumulator was recently replaced. No mechanical issues.

Car has 19" 540r HRE's without any curb rash. It's lowered -- dealer called it an 'Euro spring kit' - will get more info... Evolution Motorsports intake. Full clear bra (full hood, bumper, sills, etc.). Tint. Clear side markers. Porsche aluminum pedal kit.

The clear bra was a bonus... I asked the salesman if it had a clearbra and was told no. I had mentally budgeted ~$1k... When the car arrived, I noticed that the entire hood was covered plus the bumper, sills, headlights, etc.

Car is in excellent condition. VERY little interior wear. Exterior is excellent. VERY nice overall car that needs nothing…

I just bought a set of OEM hollow twists for winter tires.

Of course, I love the acceleration and the FI benefits when living at elevation (6800+ ft).

My e30 M3...

Bought in early 2006. Third owner (second owner was an acquaintance who owned the car for six months and put 64 miles on it...).

Plan to pass it to my son -- he's nine and loves cars...
