I picked her up late yesterday afternoon. First impression... good G_d that color is bright. It is true what they say, do not get Speed Yellow if you do not like the attention. I could feel folks staring from across the interstate. It rained on me the whole way home (~100 miles) so I did not get to play to much. Probably for the best as I am trying to break her in properly. The engine sounds are intoxicating, and the acceleration is addictive. The ride is not as harsh as I was expecting and it feels firmer than the ROW M030 on my C2.

As optioned... Speed Yellow, black full leather, PCCB, lowered seats, thicker wheel, yellow belts, colored wheel crests.

Sorry for the poor photos... it was raining out so I had to take some photos inside the garage.

 

Awesome!!! Congrats Shes a Beauty!!

 

All right Sloth! Congrats my man!

 

Thanks guys. Picking up the GT3 was the perfect end to a great week in Germany.

 

Congrat's Sloth, The car looks awsome!
I look forward to seeing at the next PCA event, And finally getting to meet you, ....If you ever show up to one ... LOL

 

Hey Jeru... The timing on local meets, PCA events, and other track days have been horrible for me the past few months. I have been way to busy with a wedding date fast approching. One of these days... perhaps sometime after September.

 

Looks so hot in speed yellow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats and best of luck!

 

Yellow has never been a favorite of mine.......until now! That looks awesome. They had one displayed at a local dealership and it was certainly drawing a crowd.

Best of luck.

BTW, What is that black cord running from the door to the front of the car?

 

OH MAN THAT LOOKS GREAT DROOL DROOL DROOL FOR ME .. THAT LOOKS GREAT.... CONGRTAUALTIONS ON THE NEW RIDE

 

That is the cord for the battery maintainer.

 

Yellow was never my favorite but I'm changing my mind, its looks fantastic especially with the matching yellow PCCB's calipers
Congrats!

 

Thanks again all... Yellow was never my favorite color either... until recently that is. Nothing like "Hello Officer Yellow". Had I speced the car myself... it would have been Guards Red!

 

sloth why do u need a battery amintainer for the 996?

there are times that i dont even drive my car for 2-3 weeks and teh car goes on sleep mode.. where it conserves the battery and the car still starts with just one click ..

just curious...

 

Not sure 02barebones...

The dealer gave it to me when I got the first 996. Since the car is not a daily driver, I figured I should use it. Besides, I want to be sure that the car starts when I am ready to take her out. I just need to remember to top off the battery every now and then as the fluids boil away after a while.

 

ow...

i didint know u need to top off the battery once a while.. hmmmaybe i should take a look at mine.. do u add?? distilled water right???

thanks sloth...
