That sucks, sorry to hear man. Are you getting hit while parked or on the road too? I'm thankful I've got a garage spot for mine, but come to think of it I also don't spend much time street parking it on errands or anything.
None of it has been parked, just people hitting it on the road.
😁
Here's mine...
Truck decided to try to drive over the top of me this morning while he was pulling out of a disabled bay. Dealing with insurance now, just so sick to death of people constantly hitting my car. It has to be the damned grey color that blends in with the road.
Finally got this sorted out with insurance. Booked in for everything to be replaced, bumper, headlight, fender, driving light, fuel bucket and lid, indicator, liners and ducts in November. The truck driver hit the most expensive 6 inches of the car so the quote came to $14,959 for that scrape.
Thankfully they took responsibility and it’ll come back perfect in a month and a bit.
Q: What is the difference between a Porsche and a porcupine? ……….a porcupine has the pricks on the outside!
Ah, almost as much as I’ve recently paid for a
new clutch and 1-2 synchros on the Turbo. But I’m paying USD too :/
Anyway, worth it cause the car is excellent!
Is your turbo making a lot more than stock power or was the previous owner just a bit hard on it to cause the clutch and synchro issues?
Not nice! Wadda u drive?
The latter - seems like someone must've learned to drive manual with it! Car's totally stock except for a CarPlay head unit w/rearview camera, PASM controller and the requisite exhaust (Soul Performance). All well done, by a previous owner (there were a few)
Can I ask what head unit you got installed? The pccm+ option is not available yet for the 997.2.

His car is a 997.1, manual boxes didn’t exist in 997.2 which is why the .1 is rather well loved.
A previous owner did the installation, it's a Sony unit. Not sure which model as I don't know anything about these things but I can take a photo if it might help.
Oh they had manual boxes at least here in North America - but with the introduction of the PDK, the ratio went from something like 70/30 manual in the 1 to 40/60 in the 2. Hence, manual 997.2 Turbos are worth an absolute mint here. But they don't have the Mezger 😎

It's top with that interior. Enjoy it.
