I always had my eye on the 996 turbos but wasn't ready to spend $45k plus Canadian for a third car that would be driving periodically. But then I came across this high mileage turbo and once I drove it I fell in love. I payed $30k for the car. The car has some light mods including europipes exhaust, car is lowered but still haven't taken off the rims to see the suspension set. Short shifter. Gt2 clutch. 19 inch forged rims. Gt3 carbon fiber rep seats. Full Porsche carbon fiber interior trim. The car is so much fun and I have already put 3000 km with no issues... Except for the abs and psm light during on right after I purchased it. I purchased a durometric so I can checked the code and read right passenger sensor. The car is not perfect but for that many km I feel the car is great. Now that I own my first turbo I'm so glad I took the chance on the high km. Also reading this thread and seeing what T2 has accomplished. My car is just broken in.

02 turbo with 297 km
Does anyone know what kind of wheels these are? This car looks so badass!

It's fun to read the posts from nearly 10 years ago in this thread, Carlo was super impressed 10 years ago at Tom's (T2) miles.
