I am not active on the forum, but I am a frequent reader. I've seen this cruising through my neighborhood and from the driveway it looks and sounds to be in decent shape. If it was a manual I would be looking.

Full leather and PTS adds up fast. Looks nice. Damage history may hinder resale, but if buying with long time ownership in mind, it looks nice!

Looks decent. Don't know about Philly, but IMO price is kind of high by Atlanta standards for rebuild title.

Love the color, don't like the wheels--wheels are easy to replace. Nice to see the hardtop with it--might make the price more palatable. Interior pics are not comprehensive, but it looks like it's in pretty good shape. I always want to see a full picture of the driver's seat to judge the state of the interior.

Bottom line: If you like it and want to keep it for a long time, buy it. Don't buy it thinking it is an "investment".

If it were closer to December, I might be hitting you up lol!

Just starting to research the 996's. I want a fun car sooner than later but still have 2 kids in private school plus college after. 996's seem to fit the bill given fairly nice specimens can be had for less than 20k plus some work to fix/repair known major issues. Plus, I've always wanted a 911.

Not craigslist but this site has some pretty nice listings. Good for comparison sake .. and easy to find exactly same model as what you might be looking at.

I agree, it is a little high IMO.

Branded title. No matter all the exclamation points in the ad. No IMS check or upgrade, no receipts, fat ***. Take $18k cash, and drive away.

I am -- conflicted. Normally, I wouldn't post up something that is so pricey. But, this seems to be the outlier. I guess for the buyer who wants ultra-low miles.

Lucky for you it shows SOLD on their site, so crisis averted

It's a good color and seems to be in good condition, but there's nothing special about it beyond that. The chrome wheels are atrocious and it's not highly optioned, for sure. I'd just as soon buy something with more miles for 1/3 less...

I am of the same opinion(hence, the 'conflicted' comment). However, there are folk who value very low miles over everything else. Combined with the non-black, sliver, gray color I thought it merited a bit of publicity. Hope that's ok.

not CL, but it seems really high to me?? but then Im still new at all this...
New here as well, and I agree. It's very low miles and looks to be in very good condition, but not worth 10-15k premium over other examples out there based on what I can see. At least, not to me!
