Wicked 996 is infamous around these partsWicked 996 is infamous around these parts
Those S54 M-coupes command a premium. KBB has them around 12K - they sell for 25K+

I raced my buddy in his - had no problem staying ahead. Similar weight/HP as C2's - but no match at all...

You know, I really did didn't I. Sometimes I just don't know my own strength

Hugs and kisses back at you!

I love this little rocket too, great handling, light and can be tuned to be very fast.
I had the roadster back in the day and still think about it once in a while. The fun/enjoyment factor is on par with the E36 M3 coupe I once had also, I dont know what it is but, these two were probably the most enjoyable cars to drive for their own reasons. Plus they looked great in Dakar Gelb!
