Hello. Please be gentle!!

As far as DIY, I am pleasantly surprised that many things are dead easy and definately fine for the DIY types.

Just put on new front brake pads, easiest of any car I have ever done.

Just pull one pin and out they come. Must be designed that way for quick pit stops during a race.

Ive come to the conclusion that the 986 is not a consumer sports car but really designed as a race car and is easy to work on for regularly changed stuff, handles like a dream and goes like stink.

Drive it hard and you will be rewarded with the performance it was designed for.

I redline weekly, and shift between 4000-6000 the best part of the power band.

When I'm first in line at the light I love doing max performance launches up to the speed limit plus 3mph. When I look back the folks behind are are small in the mirrors. Love it!!!! Flaunt it if you got it!!!

Ive been driving the car to work...only Porsche in the lot and the guy with two Mercedes has talked to me and wants to trade his in for a 986 now as he has seen me having a blast and also wants that kind of fun from his ride...

Like the color, not the tag. You will love driving in the States. Here we drive on the right side, but set on the wrong side. Cheers.

He's just giving you a hard time about your License plate(tag). They are a bit smaller in the states. Nice car! Enjoy it now that you know how to drive it

Number plate. Over here ours are smaller, and come in varying designs.

Love the color!

Nice ride Bob! Enjoy redlining it to the max like we're meant to - just don't go flying through any speedcameras like I did on the A1 a couple of weeks back!! Insurance is already high enough for us young Boxster owners without points on the licence! PM me if you ever fancy meeting up for a cruise, I'm only down in Kent... Loads of lovely A roads down here
