Looking at 911 Turbo to buy
#31
The dealer may have said original owner won't talk so you won't cut dealer out if the deal. Car I bought was on consignment but I did a deal direct with owner for thousands less. Just a thought on that comment.

Thanks for all this info. Here is a link to some Pic. I'm going to see if I can locate a good non Porsche Dealer to do a complete inspection on the car tomorrow. I think there may be a couple of Porsche Performance shops in the area that may have a better understanding as to how this can is set up and anything I should be concerned about. If not I may just walk away.

that thing is great! it's a bit too red for me, but hey. how can you walk away from that car..? if you're in the market? my gut says it's a winner. remember.. if it's that clean and a good tech tell ya it's "ok"?
it';s good for 300k miles. looking just like that. though i';d change the wheels.

I'll just pass this little bit of wisdom on to you---make sure you get as much information on the modification as you can. I say this strongly because another one of our 996T brothers here (I won't say names) recently purchased one that was pretty well modified and he was not really happy with it. I won't say anything more about his specific car out of respect to him---if he chooses to chime in then great. But, make sure that you know what was done to it as best as you can. It will be well worth your while to have a PPI done on the car so that you can have an expert inspect what was done to the car---the things that you can't see. If it checks out then jump on it for sure.

PCA "For Sale" listings show up on the PCA website sometimes a month or two before they appear in the magazine. Check the PCA website market place section daily. A low mileage 996TT for low $40k will sell fast
Also have you tried cars.com? I found my 996TT on there a couple of years ago. I had to travel a little to inspect the car and drive it home but I got a great deal and great car so it was worth it.
