2003 996 Turbo values??
My buddy has a 2003 996 Twin Turbo, Polar Silver Metallic @ 24, 750 miles. Standard transmission. Heavily optioned, full leather interior. Well-maintained.
I am interested in adding it to my garage alongside a 997 Carrera S. He is asking 39K. Any thoughts from other owners as to a fair value for both of us would be appreciated.
Thanks!!

Just got one - 2003 black tt with 68k miles. Moded with K24 turbos, techart exhaust and headers, and GIAC flashed. Leather package, cd changer and a few other small factory options Needs a new clutch and breaks (thus the lower price I suspect) great PPI results. It was $35k - yours sounds right on par.
I will tell you it is a great car to own. Love it - wish I could drive it more! (I work from home).

Thanks for the responses. I have not owned a turbo before, but I drove this car over a thousand miles while helping my friend move from Colorado to another state. The car was solid, and much quieter than my S. And you were never down on power in the mountains!!
I have a few pics from that trip....... I'll see if I can figure out how to post them.

That is a fantastic price! Get me in touch with him!
Just as an example, a guy 2 hours from where I live is asking $58k - and will go down to $55k - on his Arctic Silver 2002 Turbo Coupé. It only has 12k miles but I can't see how much an extra 12,750 miles - your friend's car has 24,750 - would justify the price difference! I wouldn't pay $19k more for 12,750 miles less on a year older car, specially since the miles are in the low 20k range on the newer one; these are still low miles in my opinion. Now, if you are not buying it, pm me, please.

Me too.... I'd buy that at that price point all day long, pending PPI.

I have tried to attach a few pics of the 996 TT. Hope they attached.
When I get the car here at it's new home I'll get better pics.
