I wish that were true. I'd "let mine go" for a measly $35K! Love your lapis blue aero btw.

And if you can find one in Lapis Blue, it adds at least another $10k !!

The interior is like a nice well-cared leather glove. Soft, smells great and is comfortable.

I am totally intrigued by your high mileage car. Clearly you will never do this but if you ever decide to part with the car, I want first dibbs.

Wow, nice... very very nice. I think this is the first time I've ever laid eyes on a Targa with the GT3 aero kit installed. It really looks sharp. How are you liking the OEM GT3 wheels? I like the fact they are smoked. Gives the car a little more contrast. Matches well with the black top.

Howe easy is to find an original aerokit for the 996.2 Carrera ? Very keen on the Carrera fixed rear spoiler ( not the GT versions) but they seem to be very rare ( only originals)

BTW i think the 996 looks fantastic in any of them original aerokits !

Factory Aero's are getting harder and harder to find probably because people that have them are not letting them go....Arguably, the 996 Aero to me makes the biggest transformation of any generation. In fact, I think the aero packages for the 997 and 991 just don't really make the car look better as it does for the 996. Looking backward...my 993 has a OEM Aero but I could take it or leave it....not on the 996 though. I bet you won't see two SY Aeros next to each other like this....

There are definitely fewer aerokit 996s than non-aerokit 996s.

I like the nice body lines... to me it looks like art.

Looks fast even parked.

The actual selling prices over the last year and half seem to have been going up.
They will never be equal to Turbo cars, but they do bring a premium over a regular C2.
I paid up for mine 6 years ago and I am glad I did.
Non- standard color 996 cars are also going up a little

Anyone know if a Turbo bumper cover fits on a 2003 aero car cab? My bumper needs to be replaced
