cphelps.

That car looks nice and as Scott says you have that sweet 997. My only nit on the 997 is the sunroof, and it's a minor one. Only 996 I want is the white/blue RS at ASD lol.

Good luck with what you decide!

Thanks rey! One of the many great things about the 997 RS is it doesn't have the sunroof.

LOL. I should remember this! I swapped my 996 for a friends 7RS for a couple weeks in the Blue Ridge years back. What a great great driver. His was black with orange accents.

Anyways back to cars for sale!

I've been tossing the idea around of selling mine the last couple of years. We don't drive it much. Maybe 200 miles last year which is not what these cars need. Been a full time caregiver for my wife the last few years and a lot of stuff has taken a back seat. The car is a high miler with 78k but almost all those were in our care and not hard. 2nd owner. Very high msrp. Atlas grey with hardbacks, wheels and center console in atlas. Every dev stitch option in red. Red belts. Open checkbook maintenance. Welded pipes. LWFW. Has a Fabspeed Cup exhaust (have the stock parts). Guard dif. I had most of the suspension replaced. Gearbox was opened and refreshed. One track day. I just installed brand new OEM litronics. It's not a garage queen obviously but very cared for. Hate to say that many of the miles are highway as we've driven this car from Boston to NC or GA for a P-car gathering for 15 yrs before Covid. Lots of mountain driving down there. No idea what market would be for this.

I would say 100. Good color and it's had all the work done. Recent comp on BaT was 90k all in.

Default I had a few folks ask about a couple pictures

I suck at pictures. I pulled a couple older and just took some interior. Car is under covers and on charger for Winter. Pics all stink except for one. This car will get full paint correction and interior detail in a month. It has PPF on front etc.








Here's the options and sticker when I bought it.

I'm def not an expert, but guess one of these two invoices answer the question? Hopefully I'm not spilling dumb butt everywhere. I've been known to!

It may take a bit longer to sell, but the right buyer would kill for this, especially since its white.
That's the car that got me interested in GT3's, know it well and the previous owner too, great car and great guy. This is no doubt a superbly maintained, fast, beautiful car.
My daughter, 18 yo at the time, had a few laps around a local track in it, so she has the record of having gone faster than anyone else I know

Good luck with the hunt
I did my coolant lines when I owned a 6 GT3, that said, it's not mandatory, though a good idea.
Some organizations do consider it mandatory for track days.

That's about right. I called a place local to me and they said $8-12k ballpark and they wouldn't be able to get to me till about end of year.

Math:

The bill for the welding was $280. The labor bill wa bill $3,900 for everything.

Engine in and out shouldn't break $1,000 in a worst case scenario since ONLY the engine has to come out. Easy job actually.

Not really sure what your point is. Was attempting to give an example of cost of the job in my area. Anyway this discussion should be in the other pinned thread.

Atlas grey looks good in person, not so much in pictures.
