I drive by this car everyday and in person it looks much better then the pics. I don't normally get tempted but something about a red convertible looks so good.

996c2 was my first sports car, bought in 04, after having an a4 v6 q for four years. I went to a new zhp after 4 months with the 996. Joined bummerfest (autocorrect but kept ) then mudgeons soon after.

Looks good, but I would feel like an absolute knob driving it.

The wheel stripe would have to go, and one of the two body stripes.
