Good looking car. Even though the front bar is from a C4S, it works and gives this C2 a very tough look, yet still appears factory - although am undecided about the Led's in the air intakes. New exhaust, lowered, cool package. Would make a great daily. NAC911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naldz88 Posted 24March, 2022 Report Share Posted 24March, 2022 Wing looks alright! Wonder what exhaust he went with. I’ve got a quote on a Kline system from Fitzgerald racing. Won’t see change out of 7k for cats/x-pipe/muffler. Bit torn on that spend, upgrade suspension and do gundo hack or get the Kline. Not sure if either option would flow onto future resale $$.

Shedpest Posted 24March, 2022 Report Share Posted 24March, 2022 @LeeM, didn't you turn down a Sluggermatic/ Repairable write-off with minimal k's for mid 20's a few years back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya had to remind me about that one didn't ya? First tip I'd driven for someone here. It was a very clean black on black car with full, regular service history. Missed it by a day or so after procrastinating for a month or two. Sold for $28k, still kicking meself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rufmichan Posted 27March, 2022 Report Share Posted 27March, 2022 Did anyone else notice that manual 996 C2 coupe has suddenly become very rare? I remember when I was looking in 2019 there are at least several cars for sale from 996.1 to 996.2. Nowadays you cannot find any?! 🤔 On the other hand there are few C4S and even Turbos still for sale in CS. Tips and NAC911 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having just finished a full resto it’s probably now time to move mine on, I’ll be realistic knowing cabs don’t fetch as high a premium but no point giving it away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a great car but I never drive it anymore as I bought it as a daily, but my wife now works from home. When I have the choice I just go for the Macan for the day to day or Harry's for the fun stuff. rufmichan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
