Not at all. Read the first post on my thread, never intended to buy a 996 let alone this car. That said, why would I not buy a pristine, low mileage one owner, 996 C4S that was literally 3 blocks from my house?
Did some necessary mods & upgrades, drove the car 3000 miles in a short period of time, and fell in love with the car. Intended to keep the car a long time as a very nice driver. Never would have done anything to the car if my intention was to buy & "Flip".
It was that good and pristine from the start. Could have let the next owner deal with IMS and anything else. All my cars are no excuse, done right cars, I guess I'm a fanatic in that way, especially with Porsche's, aren't we all?!!


As it turns out I was offered an incredible car last week and I don't have the space for the new aquisition, and this 996 C4S, so it must go.

as of today, car is SOLD

Congrats! Hope to see you back in the 996 world again.

Edit: what's the new car? Got a pic? You know we love pictures on this forum.

If it was another 996, it would be a 996 GT3
Mums the word for now...

Since we all like pictures, here are a few from a recent trip to Palm Springs, CA. RGruppe Treffen, a fun track day, and some good drives with our friend Chad McQueen.
