It's completely back to stock (except light weight flywheel) which I think is what most people are looking for.
I've put several thousand into it getting the correct Cup II wheels and taking care of some deferred maintenance. It drives fantastic and I'm amazed what a pleasurable difference it is compared to the earlier cars.

I agree with keep it looking stock. When I bought mine I looked at a nicer one ( lower mileage, guards red )but was turned off by the giant 2 level rear wing and a couple other things I can,t remember about it.
Since I need to keep my wife at least in the loop about what I am buying, ( She says it,s my money but she has to be seen in the car, haha) .
She was with me and was probably even more turned off than me .Even though I told her I could easily replace the tail
Having owned various 911s from 1967-1995 (first one in 1973) . I am very happy with the way the car performs compared to each earlier generation.
