Pantera996 is infamous around these parts
Hello, intro for Pantera996

Greetings everyone.

Looks like the Off Topic section doesn't get much action, so I thought I would say "howdy" here since I have a 996 C2.

My name is Robert, and I live in Vegas.

The Porsche is really my wife's, but I drive it to events when I want things like traction control, good air conditioning, heated seats, air bags, antilock brakes, or if I want to hear the stereo over engine noise. :-)

Here are pics (sorry they are both cheesy model shots):





- Robert

All the GT5 cars look like that.

The track is Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch. It is in Pahrump, just outside Las Vegas.

Earlier I said all GT5 cars look like this, but I just realized that isn't completely true - I have removed all the bumpers from this car, which really cleans up the front. I really like the 996 wheels as well. My wife is a car girl and (I think) she has decent taste.

Here are the butt end of both cars (and a few friends).
