History |
Posted 11-20-2003: Picked up the 993 C4 earlier - and I have to tell you, I'm a little disappointed. It doesn't leak oil (so far), the clutch is fine - so the upgrades there will have to wait, dammit! BUT.....
The battery is DEAD (but my rotors are not frozen any longer!);
The passenger side door release doesn't work (but my rotors are not frozen any longer!);
There are some tiny rust bubbles that the Dealer Rep thinks will be fixed under warranty (but my rotors are not frozen any longer!);
When the PO had a brand new windshield installed - the forgot to attach the antenna lead, so no radio (I checked - and turned it off - I'd rather just listen to the sound of the 6 (but my rotors are not frozen any longer!);
I only got a chance to drive it just beyond 3 digits on the way home on an empty highway (but my rotors are not frozen any longer!);
The BRAND NEW SO2s the PO had installed and then sold the car with 0 miles to me - still wander a bit (but my rotors are not frozen any longer!);
The extra set of "rims and snow tires" -- are really factory wheels - with painted centercaps and all!!! (but my rotors are not frozen any longer!);
The acceleration is thrilling. The handling - I can't compare to any of my previous Porsches - street or track. The looks - OMG - it is absolutely beautiful.... I'm in love... I can't believe it's sitting in my garage...
Pics tomorrow - if I get the chance....
These are incredible.... If you post - and I don't reply - I'm in the garage - just staring at it.... I may be there for a few days.....
- LWF
- Steve Weiner's chip (OUTSTANDING!)
- RS mounts;
- Runs on all 6 cylinders...
