My new ride




Getting ready to ship out.
















It's a 2013 with 41k miles and it's been a blast to drive so far. I haven't had a fun car since I sold my 996tt in 2010. Any advice for most important mods. I've been reading up and it looks like tune, resonator/secondary delete, row boxes and air/oil separator are must.

Congrats on the new car. Wish mine was white. As for the mods on your list, I think that's a great way to start.

Thanks and I was on 6speed but mpowell wasn't my user name. I was MSCaymanS because when I joined I had a Cayman S. I bought the 996tt after my Cayman flooded in my garage.

Mpowell--Welcome to the dark side. I got out of a 996 C2 before the C63. It's a different animal, for sure. The *** end LOVES to step out but the sound is awesome!

You'll love it!

TC

ETA: I just re-read and saw you've been out of the TT since 2010. So sorry! I was out for about two months and could feel my p@n!s shrivelling!

Ha, I was looking at this one! Up in CT right? Did you get a deal? It was $39,900 and they wouldn't budge when I was talking to them.

Yeah that's the one, I think I got a good deal on it compared to everything else I saw. I was a little nervous buying sight unseen but it was exactly as I was told.

The funny thing was my wife was telling me I needed to buy a new car. I got rid of the turbo when our second child was on the way. I love the sound this thing makes stock, just need to make it louder and it will be even better.

Yeah it's got a few cosmetic mods. After I get back from taking my kids on vacation I'll be getting a few things done in the sound and power department.
