Any bets KK that will be dropping his Turbo motor in the first month of ownership to pin/weld the coolant pipes? [far more work/expense than an IMS bearing swap, BTW]

997 Turbo forum.... Beware! :-)

 

Good price. Find someone who likes grey interiors and it will be good to go.

 

Are you going to have to cut a hole in your living room wall to get it out?

 

That's a damn good price for that car. I'd happily pay that amount for the car.

 

All kidding aside, if I was in the market I would totally be interested. Both because the car looks great but also because I suspect it is as mechanically sound as is possible.

 

Yes Ken someone is going to get a really good car from you. I think Gonzo meant to say the bedroom wall haha.

 

IMO a good detail would really set that car off.
Might be my monitor, but the paintwork doesn't wow me.
Everything else wows me - the front bumper, the clean engine, the clean underside, on and on.
The story looks special, except for the paint. Easy detail job. Sorry if I'm seeing it wrong.

 

Another "I'd buy it" - though KK has taken plenty of crap (admittedly, much of it from me) for his sadistic maintenance habits, that makes this a 996 I'd snap up in a heartbeat if I didn't already have two toys in the garage.

 

(this in no way indicates that I'm done giving KK crap)

 

Its sold. In a way, Im very sad to see it go.

 

Congrats KK. Have fun with the Turbo!

Fun=Drive!

 

What was your favorite thing about the car?

 

Selling it.

 

Did you include a yearly mileage cap clause in the sales contract to the new owner by chance?

 

Learning about the M96 engine, performing PM, and replacing parts.

Mileage, maintenance, and JG DT40 clause of course! Now if I can just get Jakes opinion on what is the perfect oil for the TT. I get the impression he does not mess with the TT's much.
