The engine is untouched, original, besides the clutch but that's not part of the engine. LOL! The car runs like new. People don't believe the car has 157K miles. The interior is pristine and there's no much difference in felt power jumping from the 996 to the 997 and back to the 996.

The seller wants to bring his brother and mom to see the car. This is a 40 year old individual! The 996 still available with a lowered price of $19,000 for a fast transaction.

I know of a local guy with 235k miles with original engine. He uses the same Indy I use for years. He is original owner and religiously did his oil changes. Not sure if he upgraded the RMS/IMS stuff
