Some like them, some hate them. They seem to work on this car so I left them on for the sale....

I wish it were. Just plain old seal gray, with a very thin build sheet.

I did. It needed to be dialed in a bit by changing all the brakes from oversized Brembo to new stock brakes, I did the new tires, motor mounts, pcm, trans fluid and filter, and all fluids. The interior was too nice to pass up. Other than age cracks on the carbon fiber center console, it nearly perfect. I also replaced the leaking rearview mirror.

This is one of my turbos and it's time to thin the herd. Car is mechanically sorted other than items listed and maintenance is completely up to date with recent tip service and new motor mounts. Interior is incredibly clean and looks mostly new. It is a very low-spec car but runs as a turbo should. $50k is the ask.
You should post this note in the 996 forum, lots of guys there want to upgrade.

It's a nice car! I would be totally into that if I wasn't already buying a lift since I'm -3 for garage space in a climate where it gets down to -40...

@rael Technically you not allowed to list cars for sale in the technical threads but you are allowed to list it in the marketplace and then link to that listing via posts in the technical areas.

Just copy the craigslist information of your first post in the marketplace and boom you have "For Sale" listing.

I found my "new" Turbo on Craigslist. If your careful, you get get a decent car for a decent price. Your car is very nice and, I for one, love that it is a TIP. GLWS !
