Default Farewell all

Last night I was bored so I had a look at a few Porsches on the net, just drove to Reading and bought one

Had my s2000 for 3 years and fancied a change. Didn't want a convertible as I have had them for past 6 years and my mates brand new Boxster had his roof slashed in the week which has sort of put me off a Porsche Convertibe. Plus I wouldn't want a Boxster anyway. After reading EVO Feb edition on the 996 buying guide I went for one of these. It has the aero kit on it (side skirts and front and rear spoilers). Plus the dealer has put brand new split rim 18's on it plus new tyres. The 300 bhp is great (4.6 secs 0-60 and 173 top end - Evo figs).

Would just like to say the people on here have been fab and thanks to you all.
I will be having a few bits to sell in the next few days:

HKS Hiper full stainless
EVO 18's , all tyres good, rears 2 months old (f1's)
PRM
Muz Prestige mats in blue
Muz boot tidy (2 weeks old)
Muz gear knob
Eibach pro springs
Mikeys stainless grills.
Honda Hard top stand

I will post above on for sale section soon. Thanks for people PM's so far

cheers all

Top work and a very good choice indeed
Fastest colour too !

Does it have the sports exhaust ? If not get it booked in because you will want (need) one the second you hear it.
