Congratulation!

Really didn't like the negative feedbacks left for this seller.

so what's the story of this 3500 miles car?

Yep, we do the alumalook on it now as well. Check the order page for most of the goodies, then we can discuss.

Thanks, and congrats again.

And hey, a 'cab' and a 'tip' are not necessarily classified as one and the same. I have a C4S Cab 6speed, and love it.

Yeah....don't agree with the CAB and Tip comment either. My 996CAB is a 6sp and would NEVER consider a Tip. I would have preferred a coupe but the wife wanted a Boxster and I wanted a 911Coupe so we "settled" on the 911CAB and it was just as much her insisting on the 6sp gearbox as me.

Default what I meant to say was

If I bought a coupe, it would have to be manual, a cab I can live with as a tip.

Dont mean to jerk-off Tip guys out there but...

If I'd have wanted automatic I'd have bought BMW or M-B.

Just my $.02

I drove a tip 993 targa around the countryside in england and loved it. In fact I preferred it because I was already on the wrong side of thge car and couldn't get used to shifting left (& I tried to on a peugot 206)
it allows you to focus on the road more. which again being a foreigner on english country lanes is a good thing :P
