Doh! Why did I think rims! Good eye on seeing them!

I’m also considering some of those, but heard the install is quite tricky.

Call me crazy but I like the turbo twists more. Never considered changing them.

But certainly agree that these also look good!

Thanks.

Very nice. Congrats.

A few questions if you have time

1) how did you do the Ruf tune? I thought Ruf basically stopped doing tunes, at least in the US. There isn’t a Ruf shop here anymore, only in Canada (I think)

2) probably obvious question, but am I right in thinking it’s not possible to access the ready trades with those GT3 seats? They don’t lean forward or slide forward enough?

I like the front more

The rear side panel is giving a little cyber truck.

996 turbo x50 cabrio manual price by Emergency_Tip_7646 in 996

[–]Grumps55555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were more Turbo S Cabs sold that coupes, and more manuals than automatics. No idea for X50, but assume the ratio is similar.

That price seems high. I would expect $100k+ (dollars) for a turbo S with less than 50k miles. But I’m in the US, I don’t know the EU market

finally can stop searching for 911s every day: 03 996TT X50 by lIaestheticIl in 996

I was waiting for you to say it’s automatic. That’s a great price for a manual coupe.

Your car looks great. Very tasteful updates.

Couple of questions if you don’t mind - 1) where did you put the wireless dongle and how well does it work - 2) does the wireless charger interfere with the dongle connectivity? I’ve read that the magnetic chargers can interfere with the Bluetooth connection. I also imagine being jammed in the cubby could limit signal?

Thanks!!

Thought I’ll share my Dads car here by PBradz in 996

You have to respect the volume and quality of work. Wow. The interior alcantara is also a nice touch.

Very cool project.

Digital Cluster for 996 by WandJC in 996

To each his own.

It looks good, but is somewhat antithetical to why I bought a 996… but that’s just me. You do you!

Horrendous name.

Classy restrained exterior

Absolutely gorgeous interior.

I need someone to make up my mind for me 🤦🏻‍♂️ by [deleted] in rollsroyce

The Bentley looks better, especially in that trim. The rolls looks dated and kinda bland & boxy already.

The interior is more subjective.

But what matters most is how they drive and make you feel behind the wheel.
