Had a light day today so I took the 911 to Red Rock Canyon. A scenic ~13 mile one way loop here in Vegas. Lots of tight turns, a few sweepers and 1 great straight towards the end. An annual pass is $20, so it's a no brainer for all of the auto enthusiasts out here.

Not a great photo, but I was too focused on driving and passed all of the best places to shoot pictures!!!

 

Beautiful car man, the only thing you need is to lower the car. Your car looks a little too high...

 

^+1 why is it so high??

 

It is a standard Carrera; Carreras don't come equipped w/ PASM as standard. PASM is 10mm lower than the stock suspension.

BTW to the OP: I didn't mean to offend or anything...

 

Gotcha... def needs a drop then.

 

I like how this car looks, sans tint.

I used to really be into tint...not anymore.

 

Why do you guys always want a drop? That height is perfect and practical for everyday use!

 

+1

car looks great

 

Love the drive through Red Rock. Did it on a harley, never in a car, but it is beautiful.

 

Thanks for the comments guys. It's actually a C4, but yeah, it doesn't have the drop of the S models. I've waffled back and forth about lowering it for 2 years, but I keep remembering the how I used to scrape the front of my lowered M3 over speed bumps and steep driveway entrances, and I can't bring myself to do it.

Tint: Ultimately I'm going to put a light tint on the car, but making it too dark is a mistake IMO. Part of what makes the 911 design so incredible is the shape of the 'greenhouse'. If you black it out too much, enough light won't come through for you to see the cool shape. My wifes audi is all blacked out and looks awesome, but I prefer light tints on 911's.

I'll put up another pic or 2 later when I'm on my other computer. Right now I'm in bed with my laptop enjoying doing nothing.

 

I love to drop the cars because of this: It looks so much better after you drop it!

 

Whops, sorry about that. It really i hard to make whether it is a C2 or C4 from the picture

If you are thinking about lowering it and not to worry about scraping go with Eibach springs, it only lowers like 25mm. I lowered my car with Bilsteins as low as I could go, but I scrape everywhere like you said...

 

You can't see it while your driving it! However, those HRE's really look awesome!

 

What do you mean you can't see it while your driving it? It is not about the look when you are driving the car, it is about the feeling when you're walking up to the car and see it every time... Plus the handling is a lot better after the coilovers!

Thanks for the compliments btw!
