You can vaguely see 77106 miles on the odometer. The description says only 7K per year, so that is in the range for a 10+ year old car. Nice looking ride.

Additional notes from CL: May have to meet the seller on that desert road. Bring cash (unmarked $20 please).

Mileage is a bit high for me at 77,000. I'd like to find something with 35K or less. I guess for the right $$ I would go up to 50K, but 77k is just too big a number for me to get over.

thanks anyway, it seems to be a lot of car.

I was in the book store the other day while I upgraded my speakers to Focals, and saw the production numbers for the 996. Very interesting, especially how few Turbos were produced for each model year. You're getting a special vehicle, Larry.

26K miles for 40K Sounds like a steal. But why were so many Turbo buyers so boring when they picked the colors?

this triple black is nice...... if this one checks out, winner!

though, I dont like that the cover on the battery is missing? front end damage?.. looks like some thing is going on in the frunk, hence the odd shape carpeted boxes.

I am looking for a 2001 - 2003 996 TT Coupe.

Mileage < 35K, but I will go up to 45K

Cost $40,000 or less - that is the settlement with my insurance company for my wrecked 996 Targa. I'm holding back a little for oil change, clear bra, etc.

Colors - Absolutely NO BLACK,
Larry
Cough, cough
