It sure has! We picked it up exactly 1 year ago. Last May. 10 hour drive down to Alabama from Chicago and drove it back!

Carlo Carrera. Question for you as I have been off the site for over a year and haven't kept up with the market. In January 2016 I passed on a super clean 2005 996TT S Cabriolet (6MT, PCCB) with 16K miles at $60K. At the time the 996TT market was pretty soft and I thought it might firm up in the future. I was thinking that a low miles, highly optioned Turbo S made in the last year of production might do well over time. I ended up going with a really nice 2010 997.2TT CPO (PDK, PCCB, heavy options) with 37K miles. I don't regret my choice, as I'm loving the 997.2TT, just curious about how well that 996TT has done in the past year. Jeff

Hagerty is showing a $10k increase in the price for a concourse condition car and I would say that is accurate. Prefect, low milage 996TTs are getting rarer every day and the value of convertibles in particular appear to be rising quickly.

I also think the deal you made on your 997TT was pretty good too.

My brother will likely be offering his 2005 Midnight Blue Metallic TTS 6-speed coupe shortly. 39K miles, $155K MSRP, and Aerokit. Easily the best optioned 996 I've ever come across.

Thank god it's not green. I'd have had to trade up for the grey interior.
Bet it's a pretty car.

Sounds like a nice car and I want the aero package, if interior was black I would be interested. Curious of price?

The Natural Grey Leather does look black to my eyes. It's definitely not the light grey I've seen in other P cars, and the interior is phenomenal with the premium leather and carbon combination. Not sure on price yet, and my brother doesn't seem super committed to selling it. It's an exceptionally rare TTS due to the Aerokit, and I've been told there were under 10 imported to the US, though I have no documentation to back that claim up.

Yes natural Grey is a great interior, it's more like a non shining black. I have full natural grey interior and it has held up very well, still looks great after 150k.

Great description, exactly.

Would love to see some pics of what sounds to be a really nice Turbo S

I thought that was the case with interior color, realized it later. Would like to know more if he decides to sell. Thanks.

My brother has been way busy with work, but I'll try to get some pics up this weekend. I'm also trying to justify buying it myself. I've regretted selling my unicorn 997TT since I sold it, and this car could fill the void.

What do you guys think this 03 x50 tip with this option list and 23k miles would bring? Car is tip and msrp is canadian

Carlo_Carrera

Depending on condition $55-65k US dollars.
