Prices Keep Drifting Up

Three Wheelin'
I could seriously not care less what happens to the value of my 996. Wouldn’t even know how to price it anyways (02 C4S with 85k miles - 3k miles on an proactive FSI 4.0L). What I do care about is how it makes me smile when I drive it. Which is often.

Couple of “bargains” on BaT today. I may sound like a broken record, but these weekend auctions on BaT are great for buyers but terrible for sellers.

I'm 700 miles on my FSI 4.0L 9a1 engine in my 09 4s so my 996 4s hasn't been driven in 2 weeks. As much as I love the 6 speed manual in my 996 (I've put 33k miles on it in 2 years), after just 700 miles with a PDK + Sports Mode + FSI engine I could easily never drive a manual again and not regret it. It is a different driving experience without doubt and I'm still adjusting to not using my left foot, but "put a gun to my head" and make me pick only one to drive forever and I'd have to go with the PDK. Maybe I wouldn't say that without the FSI 4.0 but that's the only comparison I have.

Totally believe you. Had a (n AMG Racing) Tip in my Twin Turbo and it was unrelenting, endless power. I never once thought “I need a clutch to stop this crack cocaine rush”. The PDK is the same unrelenting endless power only even more instantaneously unbelievable. Made me a believer!

Just one 996 auction left on BAT, pass the methadone.
