That's a great shot Don. I wish I saw more of those pics. Truly a "Family Sports Car". Love the pose on the girl too.

BTW, do you actually wash your calipers all the time? They look so new.

Check out the recent pics I took when I was in the Stony Brook area this past Saturday. I posted it on THE OFFICIAL 996 C4S THREAD as well as the CALLING ALL CABS!! PICTURE THREAD. I'm not in any of the pics (just my Cab and several new friends) which is why I didnt post the pics on this picture thread.

Hope that helped a little...

Cheers,

btw, that's one way to get your car cleaned!
upload to photobucket, then copy "image code" to post. hope this helps.

Thanks! It worked! But I forgot to put a title on the pics. So here's a quick explanation of the pics...

I was in the Stony Brook area this past Saturday when I came across a bunch of girls running a Car Wash Fundraiser. Pulled into the parking lot where the car wash was being held and found out the girls belong to a Sorority at Stony Brook University. Thought I'd help out and got them to wash my car. Snapped a couple of pics with my camera and also one of the girl's camera. Overheard one of the girls washing my car say "This is a hot car... we should take a picture with it!" Who am I to deny them such a request? hehe

You can type in your words and put all the image codes you wish wherever you want within the same post.

Thanks Alpine!

The pic with the little girl was a day downtown Charleston with some friends and the other one was on a club poker run with the family. My 2 sons love it!

Yes, of course I wash the calipers and the inside of the wheels every time! And it's a daily driver!

Better rewax the car since you don't know what type of soap they were using. Probably dishwashing soap like Dawn...

OOOOY.... them are fighting words, at 6'5" 280 pounds looking like a bulldog my publicist always tells me I shouldn't look so mean... next time I'll tell her "baby I'm a queen"

I think Flipmo is well on his way to walking away with that title though.
He's like a kid with a new toy since Jr. showed him how to post those big @ss pictures!
I mean they are popping up everywhere!
Yup, Jr. has created a monster!

And since we're talking about pics, what's up!!
I didn't know P. drivers where this shy!!! 'come on boys post some pics of your ugly mugs (with or without mods ) and your ride you can always update them later (gives ya an excuse to ***** out that beautiful ride some more).

Cheers!

Sid.

Yeah, I recently got a Cayenne Turbo. Gave it to the wifey so I can get myself a Lotus Elise next year. I'm not discouraging you to get one for the winter. It's a very nice and capable vehicle and fun to drive as well.

BTW, the 2 Swedish bikini models never came and still no pics of me with my car.........yet.

996 Turbo Cab Wanting more

This is my newest toy. It has a Stage 2 Evomsit set up with Fabspeed exhaust and headers. I'm looking to get this over the 650hp mark, but could use some suggestions. It's currently a hair over 500 according to Sharkwerks in Fremont that did all the work for the previous owner.

Any suggestions?
