not that you asked, but I like it the way it is.

TerryBPP 05-26-2004 12:22 PM

You are just dying to modify that car. Leave the outside alone, its beautiful. Do suspension and engine upgrades.

TKO 05-26-2004 12:23 PM

leave it alone!

targa80 05-26-2004 12:26 PM

You really need to contact this guy for the big red rotor upgrade.
Sorry, I just couldn't resist posting this pic I find it so funny.:eek:

better yet:
Step 1: do a search for "roach"
Step 2: soak in the look
Step 3: copy suspension mods
Step 4: go enjoy

OMG! Pat that is hilarious! Thanks. :eek: SmileWavy

I know - I get bored with cars (orignal look) fast.

Bad habit. Thank you for the image though!

Your car looks perfect to me! Tell you what... I'll take your car and you take mine! (There's plenty of room for modifications and improvement on mine!) ;)

I dont normally get involved in these sort of posts as I beleive its each to there own taste.

But NOO that car looks great as she stands.

MMGM 05-26-2004 02:31 PM

Please consider selling to me before you make that modification if you are truly bored with it. It looks perfect as it is.

Actually, if things go ask planned, I'll be selling the Land Rover and, ahem, BUYING A '86-88 COUPE! If anyone has a line on one, let me know. Stay tuned...:D

BRJ, You gotta do what you think is best, but that car is OUTSTANDING as is.

bigrubberjeep 05-26-2004 02:55 PM

wow - thank you all for the great compliments, every now and then when I ask about changing something on my car, people suggest to leave it alone. That is so hard for me to do! I know some of you suggest engine and suspension mods first,but to be honest, I am a little fearfull of doing anything that s not reversable.

So far I have done:
K&N filter (I know I know, but it was the first thing I could buy for it and install at 7pm on a friday after bringing her home)
Removed 90% of a diteriorated sound pad
New Front (cross drilled) rotors and pads
New custom made magnaflow exhaust (single in and out)
Urhum! (efficiently modified Cat)
New rear pads and resurfaced rotors
Replaced PO prestige amplifier with an MTX (much better)
Super white bulbs for the headlights (yes white, not that ugly blue)

Today - New Mahle fuel filter (PO had not had it changed since 92!)
Valve's adjusted
New NGK plugs
Oil&Mahle filter.

So now I am itching to do something else.............maybe it's anxiety from knowing that she wont be driven this weekend!

Bigrubber............leave that car alone! It's beautiful as is!

Disclaimer: I too have a M491 coupe and really think you should leave it as is. Of course this is just my opinion and it really dosen't matter.

NY - The opinions of other Porsche owners does matter to me because I concider most of us "enthusiast" who "know" cars. Especially coming from another M491 owner. I just figured trying on some Carrera Decals and some red paint on the wheels couldnt hurt. Not to mention easily reversable. I guess the money would be better spent on some more track time.
