This car seems familiar to me, so I may have posted it a few months back.
https://kansascity.craigslist.org/ct...687641793.html
Link from Kansas City Craigslist. Car is located in Omaha. High mileage (114k). 6 speed with Markski tune. GT2 wing. Natural brown interior. Sport seats. PCCBs. Looks to be well maintained. Asking $45k. Would be nice at $39k or $40k.

I many states dealers can register cars for less than a year. 6 or 9 months normally.

In California that applies to commercial vehicles, which this 996 Turbo obviously isn't.

The plates were a give away.

Sub one year registrations are not restricted to only commercial vehicles.

The plates have nothing to do with it.

You simply missed one of the obvious indicators that the car was not nelsontod's.

That is all...

Yes, 2001s are Biarritz white, not Carrara, and yes Biarritz is a warmer white.

Biarritz is a resort town on the west coast of France know for its whitewashed homes.
