Hello! New here. Just Graduated from an M3 to an 03" 996

Hello everybody....

I'm impressed to see all the cars here. Some of the cars are seriously nutz! I bought a Porsche so that I don't have to keep modifying my car, but Damn, it looks like I'm back at it again.

Thanks Doug

That security system is only stage I. Stage II is much more vicious, the white one will lick you to death.

You need RUF! RUF! mods for your car

Then it will be twice as barking mad as it is today. Don't paws, just get out there and spend, and remember just throw us a bone and tell us the tail after you finished modding...

Thanks for the welcome guys

My name is Sammy and I'm from the Bay Area. I bought this Porsche from Negherbon at Oakland, CA. <=== These guys are the biggest scum but they had the cheapest prices, you just have to make sure that they don't jack you (believe me, they tried).

Anyhow, my car is a Meridian metallic with PSM,Hi-Fi,Pwr.Seats,Alu.Shift *****,18" Carrera, std. Gray Int. Pretty sad that I could sum up the options in one sentence. Overall I love this vehicle, currently it has 500 miles on it so far. I have only started the modding by adding the Euro clear side markers. Not new to modding, I intended not touching this vehicle anymore, as it may be grounds for divorce. Just like some of the addicts here, I've modified pretty much all of the cars that I've laid my hands on. Including a Ford Tempo.
Here are some of my current vehicles.

Welcome
Since walking down the path of righteousness is familiar to u, here are a few links of some major Porsche specialists to get you started:
RUF
TechArt
Gemballa

Look at the sponsors here, top shelf guys... Weissach is the go to source for RUF, Fabspeed manufactures the most popular exhaust systems on the board, Eric at Bumper Plugs has the just what you Californians NEED (and he can do just about anything in the wolrd with paint requests), and Gert at Carnewal in Belgium has a just about everything else u can think of.

There are many others - too many to mention. Just ask around here and someone will always answer!

ENJOY THAT PORSCHE (s.e.g.)

Thanks Parker, That is great help. I just had my V1 hardwired today, it took all of 5 minutes for my installer to do it. I'll post pictures soon.

Nice car / nice Pomeranians

When you come to your senses and start to mod your car out, (that’s what you’re supposed to do with a Porsche right!) I’m on my 17th Porsche since 1975 and I still have not grown out of personalizing (that what I tell my wife its called) my car. I can get you Factory Porsche Mods for about 35% off what dealer’s show as list price. The M3 is nice but Porsche is nicer, Enjoy.

Bob

35% off!!! You just made a new friend. Personalizing !!HAHAHAHA I use that too.

It also goes well with "my unique car creation". I see you also have a DINAN car. Can you post any pics of it. I am considering an X5 when my ML lease is up.

Anyhow, back to the 35%, I am looking to get the Turbo front for my C2 and the factory side flared rocker panels. Do you have an idea on how much these things cost??? Thanks!

Sammy
