McCord AirForce Base.
At least I had something to drive, while baby sitting my son's dog.
You know where this is!
C-17's all over the place.
A C-141 on display. I used to jump these almost everyday for a year!
Kinda nice to cruz the flight line!

#678 is for sale in North Carolina on Facebook Marketplace. Messaged the seller as an interested buyer and ran the VIN to find it was passed around a few times at auction with Frame Damage Reported. Though he's stated it was purchased from the Porsche Dealership and that they didn't disclose that info to him, also the Carfax doesn't show any of those details.

A buddy of mine who works for Allstate told me this happens WAAAAAAAAAY more often than anybody realizes and is the reason, in his opinion, “CarFax is a useless and total bull**** tool as anybody can just get it repaired and not have it reported.”

Definitely not my intent to sabotage your sale. I've recently entered the 996 market so I'm a new rennlister. Not here to step on anyone's toes. If there's anyone interested in the car in question. Please reach out to the seller and do your own research. I was just simply sharing what I found.
Edit: with a VIN the seller provided to me twice and verified that I entered it correctly. I intentionally omitted it from the pictures in case the seller didn't want his VIN out there on the internet.
Thanks!

One item I consistently forget to check, the airfilter. Wondering why my gas mileage and performance is off. About 150,000 miles on this one. Also cleaned the mass air flow sensor. Running like a champ again!

Here are a couple side shots to show the Girodisc rotors on the car:
As far as a comparison to my old 996 C4S, this car's suspension feels more planted along with being RWD vs AWD. I felt the C4S was very soft and floated on the highways and around corners. It had brand new suspension all around and still felt this way. The 40th feels more lively, quicker and better suspension. The X51 also helps a lot too I am sure.
