Hi all. Great forum! Owning a 911 has been a dream of mine since I had Matchbox cars.
After retiring form the Navy last year, I began looking for my dream ride: single owner 997 Targa 4S, 6spd, in Seal Gray/Cocoa - impossible. So I opened up scope to include C4S any color except red or black.
The last 8 months have been a whirlwind: missing several fly and drive opportunities either due to work or a crazy seller’s market.
Finally, one popped up close to home last month at my local dealer...but it was Basalt Black (I didn’t know there were two blacks). Well, black’ll do!
2006 C4S two-owner, 6spd, Basalt Black/Sand Beige, 49K (now 51K) on HRE P40 wheels. All records, recent major service, new brakes, and a fresh set of Michelin PS2s.
First mods (in order)
1. Winter set of wheels and tires - sotos on Starkes with 7mm spacers
2. Numeric shifter (cables not installed yet)
3. DSC V1 controller
4. Summer wheels sent to HRE to be refinished in Brushed Dark Clear.
