That's outrageous. I dug out my latest service receipt just to verify.

In 2020, I purchased part 955-722-031-03 ("Locking Device") for $1,101.64. According to Pelican Parts, that part has been...

It's in great shape. Alcantara is the best upholstery ever - it wears well and cleans up from just about anything. Regardless, we have the interior protected with custom-fitted industrial-strength...

Value of Aftermarket Body Kit?

Hi, all.

Kelley Blue Book says a '99 996 in good condition is worth around $15k today but doesn't account for any aftermarket body upgrades. Any ideas how this might affect my vehicle's value...

Huh. Do you suppose the tire carrier impacts the car's resale value? If it's not adding value, this might be the time to have it replaced with a roof rack, rather than spend $6k to fix it.

And...

Yes. I remember a black and orange one in particular with the fog lights. [I so wanted that option but it precluded a ski rack.] I ran into the driver a year later at Rennsport Reunion in Monterey...

That's wild! I've only run into a couple of Transsy owners in person - all of them at Parade. Again, that's where somebody asked me if my carrier was cracking "too." Wish I'd gotten their name.

Thankfully, they're telling me the part is now available. It's p/n 955-722-010-00-4.

I realize it's a small pond I'm fishing in here, but has anybody experienced cracks in the spare tire holder of their Transsyberia or other spare-wheel-equipped Cayenne? I seem to recall a...

100% agree. IMHO, the 928 in Risky Business belongs in the Top 3 or better. Most of those films merely employ Porsches as props while the 928 in Risky Business is critical to the story - it...

Yup. I swear by them. I had Michelin X-Ice on my Cherokee and was very happy. So, I put 'em on the Transsyberia but, at some point, they stopped making 'em in my size and I had to shift to the...

Bridgestone Potenza S03, I'm guessing? Summer high performance tire.

For the record, I went with the Michelin PS2s and have stayed with them ever since. To my ears, they seem quieter. The grip...
