This is what I've been eyeing for a while. The haters will have a field day with this mod.

My mods are for me and no one else. Wasn't planning on making the car more "track-ready", but I've been feeling the need for better steering tactility and missed having that with the race car and the Momo Mod .07.

#1: ANY spoiler looks wrong to me on a 993, including when the motorized spoiler is up
#2: A real 911 has a stick and rear wheel drive
#3: The intake holes in the Turbo-S rear fenders ruin the lines of the car and look like ear canals
Flame away, all in good fun

18's look weird on coupes with a basket handle. IDK why, I guess because they never came from the factory with them.
Also the Porsche classic radio is stupid and a complete waste of money. The touch screen and interface is terrible, the price is crazy, you are never going to use the GPS when you have your phone right with you and it doesn't really match the aesthetics of the cars. Just go for something like the Continental or the Blaupunkt if you really want to just burn money.

-Porsche Classic Radio is utterly expensive... but also the best option, small screen and all
-Rennline pedals and floorboards are nice, but the Track Mats are NOT the business
-WB ranking is: C2S > Turbo > C4S
-Rear Wiper is pretty cool??
-The most timeless, perennial Interior color is ultimately one choice: BLACK.

Backdating the 993 to 964 look is mandatory to replace the original 901 lines.
If only 901 was born in 1962, James Bond car would have never been an Aston Martin

"Porsche engineers know/knew best" is total bull****. Porsche was a corporation, and anyone who has worked in one knows the level of incompetence ingrained in any and all corporations. The perfect decision is never made. Also, it was basically bankrupt around the time the 993 was developed, so more than a few corners were cut. Several design decisions were also exceedingly stupid.
