The Porsche that found home

"Sot" has found its home again. Seven years ago, my brother and I bought our first Porsche. Our wallets were limited, but our requirements were crystal clear – it had to be a 911. So we chose perhaps the most unloved of them all, the 996. A black, fairly naked car with no equipment, imported from France, with an engine already changed, sitting on questionable Chinese coilovers and with an exterior that had seen better days. But it was mechanically sound – and for us, it was a golden opportunity.
