As for the coilovers I love how the car handles and sits. It is pretty low but I love that extra sporty look and feel. Both my M3's were on coils this low and I loved it.
yah I ran same coils on my M3, and loved it, they dont rust and you can still move them, even after 4 winters with them.

True about black 996's I bought mine several months ago with 38k miles. I was hunting for 6spd and black with low mileage and to be local.

again, grats on the purchase, enjoy

Just took her for a quick ride around and man is this car quick. I had an e60 m5 but this thing absolutely flys! Anyone have a guess on the power #'s i might be putting down with my listed upgrades? Is it crazy to think 520-550 at the crank given x50 and the mods?

Out of curiosity, what did you pay?

Congrats! I love the aero package!

You should change those rather ugly amber side markers for clear/grey ones. It will look much better.

Enjoy that car!

I believe the T1R may be discontinued by Toyo. I'm running them now, waiting for them to wear out so I can go Michelin.
