All those engine upgrades sound great yet at the same time, scary. I am certain this was not the right car for a first time Porsche owner. Good luck following the dream.

Seems like a step backwards unless this type of car is on your bucket list. I agree it looks clean, and after living in Lake Stevens for 7 years I understand how it was only driven <10k miles in 10 years.

The original going in position on this was due to the cars road feel, cornering ability and it's crazy bloody power. In threads above I mentioned that through an inspection the car was found to have serious maintenance neglect so I walked away after (paying for the inspection) and driving the car 2.5 days.

Much nicer! And you won't need a harpoon, either.

Ha ha about time you finally got a Porsche.

Zaggeron · 10-18-2011, 08:17 AM

Damn that's svelte looking. Does it have a new nose or something? Even Jeremy Clarkson would admit that looks decidedly non-beetlesque.

Red__Zed · 10-18-2011, 08:30 AM

Very nice!
