regarding replacing my 997 - the good news, prices are noticeably lower than I recall from shopping back in early 2012. the bad news - there are no cars on any of the sites i went on that appeal to me.

I have one key, a pair of original mufflers and the air box from my 997.1S - if anyone is interested PM me.

Interesting. I wonder if there is $15K worth of parts on that car.

Likely but don't get cut during the process. I heard of a BMW mech's in Louisiana who specialized in recovering flood damaged Bimmers after Katrina for parts. He incurred some cuts and dead from flesh eating bacteria. My buddy who owns a BMW repair/service shop shared this with me many years ago. Not sure how true this was but something to consider.
