Default Bought a 996TT Cab

I guess Im at that age... not new to this car my 3rd 996TT first cab ... very clean car i saw at a Mercedes dealer nearby...
it was advertised at $46,500 i paid $44k for it 2004 26kmiles 6 speed manual.. its so clean and awesome deal i had to put a deposit last week when it was first listed lol.... i came to pickup today and sign papers and someone was looking at it with another sales guy, everything up hood, frunk doors , cab down....lol!! you shouldve seen the disappointment on the guy's face.. sorry.
Well glad to be back to 996TT...might go buy X73 at Carnewal, gt2 spec twist and an ECU tune thats it
i sold my 997.2 c2 and the 07 997TT tip is listed at Livermore Porsche for $62k it has a tuned TCU if anyone wants it has bbs CHR, techart springs...

Beautiful car, congrats!

Congrats on the 996 Turbo.

I don't believe Carnewal sells X73 any longer.

Did you find X73 listed on Carnewal's site, or are you looking at the 996 Turbo RoW suspension? I believe the 996 Turbo RoW suspension is still available, but not the X73 suspension.

Beautiful car.

So you went from a 997TT to a 996TT? Can I ask why?
