Default Help in reading DME report...



Hi guys - on my quest for a good 997.2 GT3 I've come across one at the local dealer with a pretty heavy east coast track history, a bunch of mods etc... So she ain't no garage queen.

On top of that I rec'd the DME report here, with no reference data on it. I'm new at this game so if someone has the time to help read this would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance...

P.s. Personally this looks like a MESS but??

Not bad. What are the total operating hours? The over revs in range 2-5 were a LONG time ago. And all at the same event. About 300 hours ago, and over 11,000 mikes ago. Should be just fine if everything else checks out.

Joel--I wouldn't touch that car with a 10 foot pole. Your best option is my old GT3 (info below), or the black GT3 at Pfaff (which I believe they will let go for $129k).

My car is going to be available for sale at Blitzkrieg soon. Perfectly clean DME, welded coolant lines, new clutch and RS flywheel (did these less than 500 miles ago). Higher mileage, but 0 accidents, full service history, etc.

Worth considering.

I queried the dealership for this and the sales rep responded "it's on the report" = ??

Great. Thanks. It's a car that looks and smells "run hard and put away wet".

Really Cam? Is that the one I drove out at UBC when you first got it? That may just fit the bill for me.

And thanks for the confirmation on the mentioned car / DME report.

I'll give you a shout later on...
