Its been a long time... pics of the ride

JEllis · 07-14-2009, 10:05 PM

Hey,

Not sure how many of the original cast is still on here or not. I bought a 2008 M3 DCT just over a year ago and sold it after about 2K miles and went to the darkside.

I still have my E36 M3 as a DD so I still keep an eye on the M forums.

I posted a few pics after I picked up the 997S, its come a long way since then.
Here is out it sits now...

Its a 2006 997S Aero with just over 11K miles right now

OE Mods:

OEM SSK
OEM Euro GT3 Rear Valence

GMG Mods:

GMG World Challenge center exit exhaust with 200 Cell Cats
GMG Installed/Corner balanced Bilstein Damptronics set at ROW GT3 height
GMG specced BBS Motorsport E88 Racing Wheels 19 X 9, 19 X 11
GMG 15mm CF rear wicker

Enjoy!

Jason

Love it. That's where I'd probably be if I didn't need 4 doors.

eclipsisNA · 07-14-2009, 10:07 PM

I've seen you on 6speedonline several times, good to see you back here! Car looks beautiful.

Johnny Lin · 07-14-2009, 10:13 PM

Damn, I always want a 997 too. Looks great, love the aero kits. I think that is what it call. I like the 4th pic spot.

yamazaho · 07-14-2009, 10:28 PM

One sick ride!!!

BaLLzZz · 07-14-2009, 10:31 PM

LOOKS AMAZING!!!!

I wouldn't consider Porsche the "darkside" but the next step when you want a little more then BMW... The darkside is the MERCEDES lol

veightkiller · 07-14-2009, 11:09 PM

Nice car bro nonetheless.

Great 997S! Those Motorsport wheels are sick.

42o · 07-14-2009, 11:45 PM

red looks great with the mods

Bluesummer · 07-15-2009, 12:08 AM

I was actually just recalling the title of your last thread "the darkside is red" and still is pretty red eeh?

e46e92love · 07-15-2009, 12:25 AM

Wow, Jason....beautiful

Good to hear from you and glad your track toy is treating you right......course maybe you should have kept the e92 as your daily driver

BTW, which of the boards do you find best for the Porsche? Really looking to learn more about them, never owned one, just driven and with them seeming to be the last company dedicated to offering NA engines, I think its time I learned a lot more.

Cheers,

I keep telling my wife my next car is going to be a red 997, looks great!

Why'd you sell the M if you don't mind me asking?

Dartanium · 07-15-2009, 01:42 AM

looks sweet, so the front bumper is a special aero part that is made for the regular 911 since it does not have an opening similar to GT3 bumpers?

CatchM3 · 07-15-2009, 01:44 AM

Nice car and great photos.

KiokenM3 · 07-15-2009, 08:31 AM

thats how i would make a 997 look if i had one

M Lover · 07-15-2009, 08:35 AM

That is one nice Porsche!

montreal red · 07-15-2009, 08:50 AM

Nate@IND · 07-15-2009, 08:57 AM
