In the p96 section, performance upgrades and engine

I'm not sure it's the same 3rd radiator for the tiptronic, I thought it was a transmission cooler. Not 100% sure though.

On the X51 it is an absolute must.... Since his X51 was not installed at the factory, I figured he should double check....

Sports seats with painted seat back (match with exterior)

6 Disc CD changer

The previous owner did all the tasteful mods. Me, I'm just starting to learn. But this forum has already taught me a lot about Porsches. Keep up the good work guys. Been trying to upload pics but I always get this message: "There seems to have been a problem with the 6speedonline.com Forums database."

Guess I just have to wait 'til it's fixed. Thanks all.
Finally learned how to post pics ...here you go:

Do you still have the black rims? They made your car seem meaner.

Unfortunately one of the wheels was damaged beyond repair (there were only two sets made by Bill Koenig of Rennworx and I had one of them). Bill told me he couldn't make anymore due to material issues.

welcome man! your car is definately one of my favorites on the board and in general your car was the car that inspired me to officially go for a p-car after how many years of dreaming about one...i saw it at the ritz carlton parked up front in the valet almost a year ago when it still had the rennworx on and for some reason i couldnt stop drooling over it...then sold my bmw a few weeks later and picked up my c4s...THANK YOU MAN and once again...beautiful 996!!!

Oh but I did receive the package, unfortunately they ran out of pink and lavender was the only color in stock! Hmmm, not too bad when the lights are dimmed
