Yeah I'm not so sure that blue 996 is a paint to sample. Looks like a repaint, front grilles are not right.

Ouch my eyes!!! The blue one is cool but the interior is a bit too much for me.

I understand that there is a draw for a 996TTS…but $80k for any color…and with over 38k miles...

Agreed. That's a $60k car to me.

And for the unique spec that it is, it's been for sale for a while.

They are just fishing with the Cab.. Some sucker is out there that wants a Convertible for the summer. Watch the prices drop back down in the winter.

Last picture is of the COA, shows PTS and painted grilles, along with all the other 'enhancements'. I love the color but would have to have all those interior pieces carefully removed and replaced with standard. I'm not sure why people think that looks good, always reminds me of ricer type mods.

The only thing that bothers me on the 996 TT S is the price. I like the exterior color and the interior as well. But I also like white wheels, so no accounting for taste here

The seats on that 997 TT looks awesome not that I fancy them.

I would rather pay bit more and get a 997.1 TT than a 996 TT-S but then that's me and what do I know

Jerry,
It's funny, my mechanic asked me if I wanted to buy it with him to make a track car

That thing is ROUGH!

I like the peeling orange stuff around the ignition though, gives it a classy sort of feel.
