Yeah, that is the mkI gt3 aero which I actually like better than the mkII gt3 aero. I really like that look a lot. There is also rear spats that came on the mkI gt3's that is not on that white car. I was thinking about doing the 997 conversion front bumper, but I don't think it looks right unless you go the whole 9 yards (fenders, lights, etc)

Yeah it was pretty nuts, still can't believe it's sitting in my driveway.

That LS1 swap looks very interesting.

I had the money saved up, but in my bank account. They weren't too happy about me showing up first thing in the AM withdrawing large amounts of cash.
In a few years I really think I will end up doing a LSx swap. The GT3 comes with a third radiator that can be added to the 996 also. Not sure if that would be enough cooling though. I would like to see renegade come out with a 996/LSx kit soon.

The 996 has always looked a bit goofy wingless, although that is just to me personally.  |
It has a wing, just doesn't show up till 75mph.
Right off the bat I wanted to order a wing, I like the gt3 mkI wing, gt3 mkII wing, and monster gt3 supercup wing. To be honest though, the wingless rear is growing on me.

I really should, and have thought about that, but it's really hard to do when it's sitting in your driveway. It's one of the funnest cars I have driven.

There was probably 100+ people ready to buy the car that morning. If I had to get a loan, or even wait till later in the morning, it would have been gone.
Carfax was perfect. If it had an accident on the history I would not have bought it.
