TechArt C4S - Anyone Know This Car?

2003 C4S with TechArt front bumper, roof spoiler, rear wing, rear bumper pieces, and coilover suspension. HRE wheels plus carbon fiber and black leather interior. Car is located in NorCal. Anyone know this car, know the previous owner, or know any history on it? Seeing as how it's well modified I'd think it's been seen around. Google searches on the plate number and VIN pull up very little though. Clean Car Fax. I've got a deposit down on the car and am going to pick it up this weekend. I just thought I'd double check to see if anyone here knows anymore about it.

Thanks,

Kirk

Thanks man... I got lucky and found the previous owner on-line and was able to make contact with him. He called me last night and gave me a lot of the history on the car. It's great how the Internet allows you to make contacts like this.

As for the price - I'll send you a PM to let you know, once the deal is completely done.

def good luck with the transaction, bud.

i got booted off rennlist and 6speed because i speak my mind. your soon-to-be c4s is one of THE best looking 911s on the road today. 99% of the 911s i see online and in person are either stock (zzzzz) or modified. all but 1% mod right and the techart c4s is an absolute jaw dropper. straight ballin'. money can't buy taste, but in this case, you're just handling business!

pls post pics once delivered. enjoy the buying process, you'll never forget it :)

p.s. my car looks a lil diff these days

GOT IT, but bad experience at the dealer - the car's tires were 10 - 20 psi low, it was totally out of gas, and it was a quart low on oil. I drove 4.5 hrs to see the car and the arse didn't spend 10 minutes preparing it! So we got it all squared away and I did my inspection and all was good. I bought it despite the dealer. The car was great, near perfect, so who cares if the dealer is a dweeb, plus he gave me a bit more off because of my trouble. I also know the previous owner through the web and I know how well cared for the car was. We stopped by his house and loaded my Montero SUV full with the stock wheels, stock exhaust, and two other suspension sets.

Here's my Christina in Hollister with the car:

I'm going to have to raise the front about 2 inches. It's just too low to be practical right now.

Loren was fantastic too. We stopped by his house fairly late last night and he scanned the DME for me, sent me a backup copy of faults, messages, etc. before clearing them, and helped answer a ton of questions that I had. THANKS AGAIN LOREN!!! Loren's not just a great guy here in cyberland, but also in real life and I'm glad that I know him.

Thanks man! I'll get more pics when my girl and I do a photo shoot soon. As for changing the ride height... I really don't have much choice. I scrape the bumper all over town with the current setup. Either I leave it as is and the car is a garage queen, or I raise it up a bit and get some use out of it. The decision is already made.... :P

git er done... rg5bs r the best looking wheels champ offers and better looking imo than the hre above.

what' i'd do is get the precision porsche side skirts and rear valences and get original techart front and rear wings. itll cost ya around $12k-13k installed is my guess.

for that kinda money now, i'd rather apply it towards a 997tt. booch don't do the 996TT man, skip it.
