I'm going to either kill myself or turn my odometer back. Now, I know what it feels like to have a beater....

That's what I hear. Anyone have any experience dealing with Sloan? Lots of gorgeous cars on his website.

BTW, my brother is seriously looking at the '99 996. And you think I'M nuts about low mileage cars - I learned from the master.

Not sure, I kind of like the idea of a super low mileage in a car that I really liked. At that price point, even with all the additional work (it may need) it may still make sense if someone was adamant about owning a totally perfect 996. Each to their own I guess.

But if I was looking for a super low mileage car I admit I would be more tempted to be hunting down one of the more "collectible" cars like a 993 RS for example. The 996 makes a great daily driver, and I guess most people looking to buy one would want to use it daily and as such not care so much about the mileage or virgin status of such a car.
