It is indeed that car.
I basically bought it as soon as I saw the ad go up.

Have you been in a 996 GT3 before? Being in Adelaide its not that easy, I had never been in one before I bought this one.
Hence I would be happy to take you for a drive at some point to assist in your decision (assuming you arent a serial killer!)

^ $60k +/- $5k, depending on condition, miles and extra components.

Ah thought so, I noticed it disappeared off carsales pretty quickly! I have not been in one, in fact I've only see one in Adelaide in the past six months period! Would love to see the car and go for a ride, cannot pass up that opportunity. You'll be glad to know I am not a serial killer haha.

I forgot to mention, I've only notched up two or three killings, that doesn't count as "serial" does it?

Great looking car, those photos are fantastic. It would be a bit tricky driving in peak hour with that pole attached!

Very nice, Congrats! If you want a bit more of a comfy ride with your GT3 when its time to replace the tires use the specs as listed on your fuel filler lid for Winter Driving. I happen to have that spec since I also have a 993 and the last time I drove the GT3 on the same stretch of bumpy roads I had been on previously with the summer spec tires the ride was night and day more liveable. For the track of course use the summer spec or larger if you dare

As much as some put down the 996 for it's aesthetics, I think it has beautiful, simple lines. Very pure. You are making me miss mine...
