Is 52 old?
No 52 is young still. I am 66 and another member has admitted to being 66. Any 70 year olds?

The previous owner did install a Canadian Tire battery which is still going strong.

Totally stock too. 1999 2.7 Black with red leather. No aircon or other non essentials.

I have to admit I have just bought some of the DEPO rear lights...the clear and red ones but after offering them up I have put them away and will most likely put them on ebay. Too modern for a 99!
I am going to stick with amber for ever!
I totally love this car...42 by the way.

Essentially stock... LED tail lights, IMS-G, aluminum pedals, garage door dash button hack, that's about it. I may do something with the headlights, too, but prefer litronics to the eBay LED lights. I really cringe at all the plasti-dipped wheels, decals, wings, Porsche lettering on the trunk, decals on the spoiler, green calipers, double DIN GPS/audio systems, subwoofers, and the like. I'm all for doing what makes you happy, but for my tastes, much of these mods are overdone. Just my $ .02

P.S. Keeping the original tail lights so the car can be returned to stock; will do the same with the headlights if I change them.

I can't seem to stop trying to improve on stock at every opportunity! I want the best alround performance I can get - the lightest wheels , the most refinement, the quickest acceleration, etc. I THINK a GT2 or GT3 would satisfy me. There must be a lot of us based on the aftermarket support. Nonetheless, I envy those of you who are satisfied with your car the way it came from the factory. I used to drive Hondas but wanted more...that led me to PORSCHE!

PS 52 ain't old but it sure isn't a PUP either ( 47)
