Where's the tailpipes?

I’m waiting for some new ones to arrive. The old ones from the last exhaust were fixed so wouldn’t transfer over. The new ones will be on for the sale of the car

Looks really nice. I am currently, sort of, maybe looking for a 911 as well. I own a Boxster and it's a fantastic little car but I still have the itch for a 911. I want to keep the Boxster because I spent waaaayyy too much money on fixing it up and can never get half of what I put into it back,, but I still have a hankering for a nice 911. I figured I could keep the Boxster in the garage for summer fun and drive the 911 as a daily. I figure something with a nice solid roof, and enough legroom for me (the Boxster is a little tight for someone over 1.9m tall) would be just the thing. I do fit in the Boxster but only just.
I've been looking and drooling, but I still have an Alfa 916 Spider that I need to sell to get the garage freed up (it's hers and she doesn't drive it) so it may be some time before I'm ready to buy. Once that goes I'll reach out and see if yours is still available.
I do like the colour combination. The black interior looks really good against the silver paintwork. My Boxster is light grey inside and Ocean Blue Metallic on the outside. I would have preferred black inside but I've learnt to live with it.

996 C4S shares the best looking rear along with Kylie.

Hi, I am currently also pondering the upgrade from an extremely straight 2003 .2 996C4 I’ve owned for 8 years to a 991C4. Just fancy a change. So, I have a 60k mile C4, manual gearbox, two owners including me with everything working 100% potentially for sale. Silver, black leather. Very good history file including Porsche and specialists. Recently had fitted a Pie Performance PPT stainless switchable sports exhaust which was custom made. This is one of the straightest 996 you will find. I won’t put all the info on here as it’s not the right section but message me for info ? Pricing I think between 23- 25k is the right number given the condition which is fabulous. New engine fitted at 30k by Porsche with the later larger IMS so that’s 100%. Just been to Lemans and back in the summer with no issues.

It had had a full Hartech rebuild which was a must for me.

I really worry about comments like this, fine if you particulary wanted a developed 3.7 or 3.9 etc. but other than that the 996 engine is excellent and if well serviced can run for way over 100 thousand miles.

I feel the same, nothing against Hartech who do a great job for a reasonable price.
