Default I am back from the dead.... looking for another 996 turbo

Hello Guys! It's been awhile!

Well I am kinda over my Maserati QP and even though I can get a 07 997 turbo in the high 80's I really don't want to lose 30K in 20-30 months on it so I am thinking of an 04-05 996 turbo since they are dirt cheap.

It would be nice to pic up a modded one so I don't have to drop and $$ into it. If anyone has any leads let me know.

Thanks!

Hi Ray,

This car is hard to pass up considering the price and miles for a '03. It will probably cost you another 15K to make it right?

given the falling prices....I really think I'd look for an 05 Turbo S....it's the last of the line and can be bought with a warranty....although the 02-04's are really taking a bath on the prices. I bought mine in November of 07 and it's lost a good $20K since then....so I'd just take my time and look around a bit. Some hellatious deals are popping up.

It doesn't make any sense to sell now...just hang on and enjoy the ride even if it's downhill.
