As many of you know, I'm knee deep in my 930 slant right now, but...
I have the chance to trade it in (w cash) on a 96 993tt, blk on blk, 24k miles, stone cold stock, 30k service done, clean ppi, doctor owned(ha!), good paint/int, clean carfax, needs nothing. The seller was asking 85k on it.........with that small amt info whatta ya think?

Member AGC has a 13k, bone stock, 96 blk/gray in NJ asking $87-88k. I think he's gonna advertise after he gets it serviced next week.That's a deal.

As you know, I've been through this recently.
Likely a good buy < $80K. Would not go over. Too many coming available as guys figure they can make a profit on what they bought a couple years ago.
In any case make sure they shot the paint!!!
As an aside, the 993TT as a driver may be the best Porsche I've ever driven. Perfect balance of civility and (useful) Force. Would be tragic for the 991 if this secret gets out. It's a true 505, I wouldn't be so fast to part with it...

Coming from an older generation car onto the TT I would not give the TT back. Still air cooled and classic look inside and outside with notable improvements.
Having both would be nice!

The feel, the interior leather smell, the solid thud of the doors closing, the wide *** rear fenders and of course the exhaust burble ...can't be beaten.

C2 Turbo, I agree with you in that I would not give up a 91 for an 07.
I went from an 87 to a 96. I was afraid to lose the classic feel and classic shape but I find that both have the smell, noises, etc ... you are talking about (believe the OP is also considering a move between these two different generations of air-cooled cars) and I do not find myself regretting the 87. I don't think I'll ever own a more modern 911 than what I got - could have bought a nice 997 TT for what I paid for my (modified) 993 TT.

Doctor owned, that's funny!

With a clean PPI, that car needs to be much closer to high-high $70's to low-low $80's in a private sale.
You really don't want a "cold stone stock" +15 year old suspension. Expect to spend near $5,000 (parts for something like PSS10's, labor and an expert alignment plus Walrod bushings) to make this "right".

Car is super clean, worn decklid shocks, seats more worn than a 30k or less car, looks to have had a top end done, drives like a 15 yo car. 3 owners. No water is right, will need 5k. Worth 70k imo.
Not enuff to make me jump, anybody interested pm me.
