I got me set for $1100 in a Brandywine group buy back in 2005.
The price has skyrocketed recently,the lowest price new is Sunset Imports.......$2.4k.....

Why did they jump from $1.5k new to $2.4k? Nothing changed.

So my car is a 9 on the poser scale? I find that ridiculous. Why would a poser car be one of the TOP TEN most viewed registry pages on renntech.com? The highest 2.5 on there ever I might add...

Dude your seats looks NICE. What's your impression of them long-term? Have you taken any 100+ mile road trips in them?

Seats are good for long trips, at least for me. The only things against them are: price, seat recline (which I dont care about, its a 2 seater, lol), had to learn not to hit my elbow on the side while pulling the ebrake, and its very hard to look in the storage compartment above the engine while sitting.

Back to the main point so im not thread jacking... its your car/money, do whatever you want to it, AS LONG AS THE FORUM TAKES A VOTE AND AGREES.... lol.

ummmm...people click and view pictures of train wrecks a lot too......that doesn't mean they're any good

now bogg, I'm not saying your car isn't nice (aside for the inserts in the bumper, not really my thing) just saying there are a lot of reasons why people click

Just click sort by total views at the bottom, in descending order.

I dont know, even the top 20 are super nice Porsche's. But you are right, all those people could have just wanted a good laugh, lol.

or the fact that even here it says in your signature to click for your renntech profile, maybe people just get curious.

i should update mine, and in my signature on all forums say "click here for free Porsche parts, just pay shipping" and i bet it would make it #1 quite fast.
