Charlie's 2008 Porsche 997 turbo

Probably referring to the extreme differences between the 3. Two high mileage, one super low.

1. side marker light bulb
2. recommend a new set of rear tires
3. perform a 4-wheel alignment

I reused the OE white bulbs when I swapped out the original yellow side markers for the new clear ones. This was done after I purchased my Porsche.

The rear tires weren't worn out but they were Michelin Pilot Sport tires and the front were Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. The dealer recommend that I get a new set of Pilot Super Sports to go with what I had in front. Problem is that they are not available until September (9/30/16) in my 305/30 ZR19 size :(

The 4-wheel alignment was recommended once I have PSSs mounted on my rear wheels...

Other than that, there was nothing else the mechanics could find wrong with my car. Every system checked out perfect - as expected :) My service advisor told me that their mechanics said to her that my Porsche was in perfect shape (good as new) and that I was lucky to have found such a fine car :thumbsup I can now enjoy my Porsche ownership going forward...:happyspidey

...So I guess that means you have to put her up on blocks until fall...or run another set of tears with some lead-foot launches so you'll be ready when they are available!

P looks perfect BTW!

Perhaps but I'll take it! :thumbsup

Today I had the opportunity to spend some "quality time" with my new hot rod... so I drove into Newport this afternoon and did an impromptu photo shoot with my new toy ;)
