Damn, I'd say. 408 wheels. Full black leather interior, 2 owners. Is it me or is the Arctic silver on the 996 a lighter shade than the arctic silver on the 997's? I don't remember my GT3 being this light.
This car is gonna break records as well. Buy your 1999 996's while you still can afford them folks.
In truth the 996 headlights ARE divisive: they draw a definitive dividing line between ALL the 911 Types that LOST LeMans, and THE ONLY ONE that ever WON --
1998 996 GT1
1999 996 GT3
2000 996 Carrera

Not even early-build or rare color, and still did $45K all-in. Simply amazing to us yes: but really all these numbers are eventually getting another zero. Inevitable given 996 LeMans history, 1st water-cooled (HELLO), and let's face it: the freakin car itself
My 4s only had 21k miles when i bought it in 2019, now almost 57k.
Honestly though, nothing wrong with that! 4s became the daily huh? I actually washed mine yesterday and said I was putting it in the garage to hibernate. Yeah right, that aint happening! Today and tomorrows too sunny and warm! We riding!
So what: sell it "TMU" in ten years on BaT. In the collector space some of these are heading, no one looks at mileage anymore
People will always look at mileage. Find a crisp numbers matching anything with low miles and it sends it to the moon. You can still sell "X" for a high dollar if well sorted, but true collectors paying top dollar are paying attention to mileage. So long as everything matches, drivers mileage doesn't seem to hurt.
True, however I'm expecting certain 996 variants to eventually inherit the same collector status as the 356. Such rarefied categories absolutely defy comparison to an 800-mile Plymouth Horizon; Doug Demuro's unbridled enthusiasm for such on "CarsandBids" notwithstanding
