My circumstances have changed is all. I don't regret it at all, nor do I need to sell it, In fact I’m conflicted about selling it, because I really want to Do a unique build on it, and even if I do sell, I will purchase another one for my build at a later time. The problem is that I am very unlikely to find a less expensive, high mileage example that is so clean an accident free!

Why would you suggest removing the wrap? It WILL need to be re-wraped in the next year or two, but Whom ever did it, did an extraordinary job, I love it, and the color! On the other hand, it is arctic silver which I know is very popular…

I wouldn't say it's very popular. Polar silver is very popular. Artic is the most common color for 996TTs. It's a "safe" color which generally nobody hates, but doesn't command a premium either.

Wow look at this. 3 years later, 50% price increase, almost to the dollar.

This one failed to meet reserve in August on BaT. Kicking myself as I could’ve bought it 2+ years ago for significantly less than the 90 to 100+ current price range for low mileage 996 TTs (Second owner was an acquaintance and in my PCA region).
Current consignor is a Porsche enthusiast in Dallas who is a longtime attendee and new sponsor of the annual Porsche (PCA) Palooza event

A manual X50 for less than $50k at the (in)famous Beverly Hills Car Club.

Although even if you're cool with the130k miles and you can get past the goofy roundball shifter, the spongy material blue inserts and that weird half cage-like contraption behind the seats, not sure it's priced where it should be.

In the underside pics, it's painful to see the lift arm not even placed on the lifting point on the front right... ouch.

Well, maybe it's a scam. The driver in one of those pictures does look shady but I still dig the retractable harness... even though he's not wearing it...

Back on topic: This looks like a very interesting deal at this price. I'd put in a little wager myself if I wasn't broke af. It's been for sale for 9 months, started asking 66k now $50k
