New 997 (new to me)
Just upgraded from a 986 to 997 and thought I would stop in and say hello.

2005 997 C2
Alcantara center console and shifter, SSK, sport chrono, H&R springs, Techart exhaust, Techart 20" wheels, Misha GT3 front & rear bumpers and GT2M wing

I wanted the S but I just couldn't pass this deal up

beautiful car! enjoy!


i have a question, i've heard that misha designs bumper the quality is not that good because of the fiber and when you later paint it, the paint will be uneven on the bumper. I'm not sure tho. how's the paint on the misha bumpers you got?

Thanks

I read that too but the fit and finish on mine is flawless and with it being black any little imperfection would really show.

I think as long as you have a reputable body shop do the work then there is nothing to worry about.

Yes, i also think that as long as you have a high end body shop then there's nothing to worry about.

Beauty! I'm considering those wheels on my black 997 myself. I wouldn't worry about not getting the S, you've got one nicely equipped car!

Sweet!!! Looks very nice, I'm not sure if I would pick looks over performance but if you got a great deal, then sometimes you can't pass that up. I prefer the GT3RS wing over the misha. Never been a fan of the techart wheels, other than that, everything is near perfect.
