I'm one of the 997 brethren, apparently several years late in finding this site. I didn't have the background that many of you had been kicked off Rennlist, but was saddened to see the disappearance of your contributions.

Groove made me smart last night in an Off Topic thread. Good to see you guys are still out there sharing. This makes me happy. Thanks!!!
Welcome Wayne! Glad you found us. Post up a pic of your 997 in the 997 pic thread. We like those too...except for the headlights.😜

Welcome to the mad mad world of 996 crazies, Wayne.

Just curious, did you mom and dad conceive you in a storm hence the name "Wayne"? :lol:

Mmmmm. New GT3 has a profile that reminds me of the MkI GT3/Aero look. Given that I think the MkI Aero is the best they've ever done, I approve 8-)

I think the 992 generation is great in every way including that stupid shifter. Every model I'm smitten with.

The Mk I aerokit 996 is amazing. If I found one now in Guards Red or Speed Yellow that is reasonably priced, I'd buy it as an investment.
