I have had several people ask me where to find a good 996tt and also try to buy mine (sorry, but I will never sell my ‘02 X50), so I figure I will keep it for a while. Sooner or later, I will sell it, but am in no hurry.
Congratulations. Should be a fun drive back.

Thanks. I plan to put black wheels with yellow highlights on it and pretend for a moment that I'm in an '05 S.

This car was RNM on PCAR market last year from an account registered in Cali: https://www.pcarmarket.com/auction/2...e-911-turbo-1/

But it looks like it was sold offline by an IL dealer with around the same mileage: https://www.napervilleautohaus.com/d...94s676185.html

And now it's for sale again at a low-end dealer in NJ with a couple thousand extra miles: https://www.mdeuroautosales.com/deta...e-911/83221950

If you can get past the super tacky mods (particularly the seats) it might be an interesting manual X50 with reasonable mileage? I don't know.

Or for the same price you can have this much cleaner, and tuned, but accidented 2004

Also sorry I pretty much only look at Cabs

I flew to Chicago early yesterday morning. Kleebss, the seller, met me at Midway and we did the turnover. He included a bunch of extra stuff. The car is in better condition than I expected. It ran and rode great all the way back to KC. The GT2/X50 exhaust sounds good with no drone on the highway like the first gen Fabspeed exhaust on my '02. The PCCM systems sounds fantastic and really brings the in-car electronics up to modern standards and maintains the OEM look. Kleebss removed the clutch assist spring, and I'll probably re-install it as the clutch is a bit heavy. Overall, I'm very, very pleased with it. It's now tucked away safely next to its sibling!

Such a steal, if I had room I would have bought it whenihe first posted it in the Facebook group. Definitely underpriced by 10k.

I like that the seat backs are the body colour - the CF looks pretty good too.
