Hello everyone. Been lurking here for a few months getting boned up on these 996's so I could make an intelligent decision for buying one. So pulled the trigger back in early January and found one that met most of my criteria. I have been traveling almost non-stop since my purchase, so haven't had a chance to get any good shots to post or put a lot of miles on, but here is a link from BAT a couple of years ago with a profile they ran on the car: https://bringatrailer.com/2016/01/19...e-911-carrera/. The car has never been offered for sale through BAT, so not sure what that profile was all about. I purchased it locally through a specialty car dealer. But it still looks exactly the same as in the link. Since I am a first time Porsche owner, I tried to follow all the advice in this forum and had the PPI done at a local Indy shop that specializes in P-cars. The car currently has about 60K miles on it and has not had the IMS done yet, nor the clutch. I used these two factors to negotiate a fair discount on the asking price and plan to do both sometime in the near future myself. (Yes, I am a DIY guy all the way). To add a little intro background, I have had a number of interesting cars through the years and used to do a little racing in my younger years. I have started a modest little collection of three cars that I now add the 02 996 to: 93 MR2 Turbo that I purchased new, 98 Lexus SC400, and a BMW 850i 6-speed, all in some sort of red color. All of my cars are in pristine condition and I do all my own wrenching. I just finished a full cosmetic restoration on the MR2, so needed something new to occupy my time. A Porsche has always been pretty high on my list of cars I wanted to own. I look forward to sharing my future with this new car and gain as much knowledge as I can through this forum. And lastly, I must say, the car is an absolute blast to drive!!!
