Talking Post your Gaurds Red 996 pictures!

Well after looking at several TT's I think it is more in my ballpark to get a 02/03 C2.

I found a Gaurds Red that I LOVE. If the deal is right I am going to jump on it. It is in VA.

So please post pictures of your GR 996's please...............

Later!

How about quit messing around and Evo supercharge the one you have? I plan on doing this by the end of the year... Or are you not satisfied with your new car?

Yes and no. You put the 10 to 15k into a SC and you will never get the money back out of it. Not that a car is an "investment" but it is a well known fact that a modified car is worth less (not worthless) to most except the enthusiasts. And no I don't have that kind of cash laying around to toss at a SC.

The other thing is I know more what I really want in a PCar. For example this has the seats like in your car. The shoulder support is really nice. Also the Red accents are something I like along with the newer lights and engine oh and the warrenty (this is also certified).

So I hear you but if I had 15k in cash laying around I would put it towards a TT and be in a faster (more valuable) car. Plus it would be under warrenty if something went south. If the SC frags the engine what recourse do you have? This has been an ongoing debate in the BMW community for a long time.

Besides my wife is from Nebraska and wants to put a big white N on the red Pcar's side to pi$$ off the CU fans. :P

Ok, Flame suit on..................

Matterhorn,

It looks like your interior has two tone seats and the colored crest in the headrest. Looks great! Any more pics??

The seat covers are custom neoprene covers made by Wet Okole. I had the patches sown in myself due to copyright issues.

They're really only a precursur though. In about 2 months I'm going to receive my Lipstick Red Aluminum e-brake and 6-speed shifter from Stuttgard. I think with their addition it's really going to make the interior come alive.

Lipstick red is a color which very closely resembled Guards Red, unlike Boxter Red.
