Cheapest way to get something to CS spec is to buy a decent coupe then strip out/replace the different bits - OK, the Recaros are hard to find and expensive, but there are other hard shell lightweight seats that are similar. The suspension lowering and brake upgrades are easy and not that expensive, euqally the LSD if you want to go the whole hog. End result is a car to CS spec at a far lower price than buying a "genuine" CS - OK, it does not have CS on the CoA, but it's the same spec for a lot less money, especially as "real" CS's are now 25k+.
Considering the difference full fat coupe to CS is about 1/2 a second 0-62mph - why all the hype around CS's??? My tip coupe was more than quick enough for me, and my tip cab is also as quick if I decide to hoon it.

Went to see my 968 again today and, give the chap who's selling to me a few more quid []! Should be collecting it in a few weeks time, all being well []. Anyway, while I was at his mansion, I took a few pics if you would like to see what I have bought? Only problem is, I'm not too sure how to get them up on here? Any suggestions?? [8|].

With those seats and wheels, he'd better keep some padding round his kidneys, or it'll be like the time I test drove a TVR, kidneys bouncing from nose to toes!!
That's a very subtle CS Pete....brake ducts instead of driving/fog lights, looks like privacy glass, black, black, then shouty orange on the sides!! But it's got a sunroof and radio, so yet another CS with some of the comfort pack options!!

Hi all, thank you for putting these up on here for me Martin, Cheers mate []. Well, can anyone tell me anything about this car? The chap I am buying it from has only owned it for about fifteen months and put less than two hundred miles on it in that time. He tells me that the chap he bought it from was a Porsche technician and, it was he that converted it to a club sport from a sport. It has Tech Art 18" wheels, Kwv3 suspension, Big red brake set up, poly bushes and uprated ARB's, brand new Michelin Sport pilot 2 tyres (or whatever they are called), blah, blah, blah [8|]!!! Who knows this car? By the way, those horrendous graphics will have to go [][:'(]!!
I will be going on a diet when I return from "Busfest" Martin [].....!!

I don't think it has got the wrong bits fitted, they are upgrades to what I believe was originally a Sport. Nice car all the same, and had some worthwhile improvements.

Looks great Pete. Nice buy. Be interesting to read how you find it compared to your old 944 turbo
