Oh no - Paging Slakker. Slakker.... please report to BAT.


There is a 99 996 in silver that is unique.

Please add a 5th to the stable.

Shocker. (In the most sarcastic font there is).

I agree you would think the seller would have atleast had the car dynoed to make sure it is healthy. Maybe even provide the info as to what size turbos are on the car too.Cant see it selling for much more than it would it stock form with the information provided.

There is a chance it will reach 20k just because turbos make people do stupid things. But more reasonably, with no service history, I think it will be lucky to hit 17k.

I saw that posted on another site a few days ago and put it in the turbo conversion thread. Seems like it would be a cool car but I'd want to drive it before I bought it to make sure the car actually runs well. If it could be had cheap enough you might be able to put in a turbo engine and reuse everything else...if that sounds like a better idea than buying a 996tt to you...
