Which pictures do you see the bad damage in? The car definitely could have used a cleaning before...

Total Turbo (non-S) with x50: 1,203
I am fairly certain this is a North America number only
Total Turbo S (world): 1,563
Total Turbo S coupe (world): ~600
Turbo S Coupe (NA delivery): ~240
I believe the 996 Turbo S is undervalued today, especially in coupe + manual spec.
PTS examples are very, very rare

Total Turbo S manufactured: 1563
Total Turbo with X50 manufactured: 1124
If total production of Turbo's with the X50 option is only 1124, that adds a big premium, because out of those 1124, a LOT of them have been totaled and are either no longer on the road, or have rebuilt titles. Even a conservative number of 25% totaled reduces the available good ones significantly when considering the total amount of 996 Turbos produced. This makes the X50 option rare on a non S Turbo.

I passed on ordering X50 because I felt the money would be better spent on getting my Turbo tuned at a later date.

And do you the discoloration on the door panels and what is going on with the speaker covers??
..pass seat worn to death
Drivers seat adjuster, engine lid button panel look funky..
overall 1-10 how would you rate the interior??
I think this car has had mold damage..

You would be surprised how much of that cleans up if a car is correctly detailed (not an $80 job) with the right products
Graphene or ceramic coat can darken and restore interior plastics as well
As for the speaker covers... that is an oil cleaner that was never removed properly
Poor listing, maybe someone will get a deal!

GT2
Sorry to those that are offended by posting non-Turbo models, but maybe exception can be made for a GT2. I havn't really priced GT2s because they are too far from my range, but if this is a real GT2, isn't it a great deal?

Local to me...
I suspect the accident it was in was quite severe.

"$40000 spend on engine, part and performance upgrades since 2016. Intermediate shaft assembly upgraded (common GT2 and Turbo issue often under warranty). Timing chain, main bearings, and rod bearings, water pump and clutch disc were replaced and coolant lines were pinned"
IMS?😂😂😂
Rod and main bearings?
Timing chain?
On a 24k mile car?🤔
The whole thing seems suspect.
