what is the milage of the cars and would you have the links of them?
Another Canadian just trying to buy a 997. I am on my 3rd ppi now and every single one has come back with bore scoring issues. I am not looking at the cheapest 997 on Autotrader it's vehicles that have the options I am looking for. Looking is the fun part I understand but paying $400 for each ppi not so much haha. I have tried to tell the seller what is up with his car at the end of the ppi and they will just not listen the price stays the same maybe down a few grand but no where I feel comfortable putting out an additional 20k for a rebuild.
Anyways that is the end of my rant if anyone has any good suggestions I'm all ears
Thanks again
Neil

Can you PM me that info as well? I am currently in talks with a couple of 997s in the GTA as well. That would definitely save me some identical grief you had.
And congrats on your find! Hope to join you this summer!
Who did you hired for the ppi?

Are you (OP) saying that you bought a 997.1 with 90K km and a scored bore #6 and you will then ship the motor to RED for nickies/IMSB/4.0 rebuild? Sounds like you will end up with a high performing, very expensive 997.
