Hello Forum,
this is my first posting and I´d like to introduce me/my M-Coupe to this community.
As I am German, please excuse my bad English. Especially when it comes to technical terms, some of you might have problems to understand what I mean
The story until today:
I bought my M-Coupe brandnew in 1999 (S50, Cosmic Black/Black). I have it ever since.
I drove it the first 3 or 4 years nearly every day. In 2000 I drove it to the Hamann facility in Laupheim and had quite some modifications made. From what I remember:
- New brakes
- New exhaust system
- Adjustable suspension (you call it that?)
- Carbon airbox incl. remap and vMax
- New wheels 18"
- Short shift
- Floor Mats
- 300 km/h display
- Chrome doorhandles
- Fog lights
- Rear diffusor
Then I got myself a 993 Turbo and the M-Coupe was in the garage. After that I switched to RS4 and now RS6. It never again came to my mind to drive the M-Coupe again
It is now sitting in the garage for over 6 years and has never been driven since then.
Now I decided to wake it up again
I recently took it out of the garage and brought it to a place where it will be restored completely. My goal ist to have the new licence plate on it on march 1st 2013 (I will be in spain for 3 month during winter).
Today I ordered a new steering wheel. The looks is like this but it will have Alcantara on top and bottom instead of leather steering wheel
I want to have some things of the interieur redone in carbon and am already talking about this with somebody.
I currently have no photos of my beauty. All old photos have been lost on old computers. But I will take some in the next few days and share them with you.
Hopefully you like my project and follow this thread until sleeping beauty is back on the road.
Thanks for your time and sorry again for my english
