new member just saying hi
I know this is probably the wrong section and if it doesn't belong here mods can delete it.

ok first of all I dont have a 996....yet. I just sold my 05 GTO so I can save to get my dream car which is a 996. I wont be able to get one til summer but im doing all my research now. At the moment I work 1 full time job and a part time ( average 70 hours a week ) so I can get a 996 in summer. Thats also a reason why I sold my gto, it will be easier to save for one if i get rid of the 500 dollar car payments .

Im literally in 996 mode and am avoiding anything "fun" hahahah. I dont go out anymore to waste money nor do i go out to eat. Ramen and noodles until i get the car

anyways i just wanted to say this is an awesome forum and look forwards to spending a lot of time on here.

PS. sorry if i made some spelling errors, english is my 3rd language.

remember....being a 996 owner myself, repairs and maintenance are a bit higher as well. =) just something to consider while saving for your car.

best wishes!

Welcome and good luck with your search. If I had it to do over again I would get a turbo for sure. If I wanted an n/a car still I would try to find a C4S. They are 02-04.
No matter what you will love the 996

Welcome to the 6. Like boxtergirlie said, keep the maintenance expenses in mind while saving up. Good luck.

yep got that covered too.

i already opened another account for repair savings hahah.

10% of my paychecks go there.

Btw guys i cant afford a TT. I planned on getting a 01 NA and just keeping saving til I can afford a turbo or supercharger kit.

Thanks again for the warm welcome.
