Yup I agree. Parts are no more expensive for my 996 tt than for my vw golf r.

Still have a few left, hit me up or they'll go to waste. Good chance to get a report on your own car if you're thinking about selling it or just curious.

It was usually in reference to a particular era. So, his advice on a 996tt would be the newest best 996tt you could find, to save yourself headache down the road.

Amen!

01 coupe 6spd - 53k miles for $35k. Seems like a great deal.

Bloose - Yeah, that is a nice one. We saw it a couple of weeks ago. See post 366. But, we thought it was sold. Interesting that it is still on the market.

A couple more for someone's consideration...


A 2001 with just under 26000 miles, seal grey, six speed, CF bits, etc.

And a 2002 Tippy with a bunch of mods & 24500 on the clock!

The 2001 is priced cheap, would be nice to see a better picture of deviated stitching. A dirty air filter always makes me question.

On that 2002, the ad says it's an automatic (tippy) but the pictures show a 6 speed. The climate control readouts are delaminating, but I believe I've seen a DIY fix for it and it is relatively cheap to repair.

Nice catch kcattorney...thanks!

That does look like a nice one. Seems to have been on the market for quite some time though. What do you guys think. Also does the front end look a little lower, maybe it's on Springs or coil overs.

^ I called and spoke with the seller a couple of weeks ago. He had just gotten it into his inventory and didn't have it listed on his website inventory yet. So I don't think this one has been on the market long.

My first turbo, so I wanted the best I could find and price although played a factor it wasn't my priority. Having no exp with Porsches let alone a high performance I think this was the smart move. Having had it over a year now, I can easily see buying a well maintained high mileage car. It's a comfort thing when buying a car to have low miles, but it's also a comfort thing to know how reliable these cars when taken care of are.

I learnt the hard way that low miles sometimes don't mean a thing.

In my view a 100k miles car owned by an enthusiast who respects it and takes care of the slightest issue at the earliest onset of the symptom beats a 30k miles car for sale at a "buy here pay here" dealer who bought it at auction, previously owned by who the **** knows.

DaveCarrera4

Amen. Low miles should never trump perfectly maintained and loved. Low miles could have been owned by a poser who drove it and never changed the oil, etc. These cars were meant to be driven, and loved...
