Yes it is mine, so full disclosure I'm not a big forums user and also not sure if it should be put in classifieds or not. This one is on the market so I can upgrade to a 958 Turbo in the next year or so (meanwhile my DD is a company car). The next build ought to be SEMA-worthy so just put that in the back of your mind for later. Priorities first like finish remodeling my house as well as other lengthy projects.

CTT to be continued...

We really need to talk the admins to setting up a Overlanding section, there are quite a few of us on here. Would probably find more interest in yours there. Folks who have not done any kind of custom build either for off-road or a track car probably do not have an appreciation for either the work or expense involved. When you get closer to your next build, probably good to visit Overland Expo West for ideas - it is held every year. https://www.overlandexpo.com/west/
Good luck!

Good luck with the sale. I do have one question, though... all that offroad gear for playing out in the dirt and no rubber floor mats? What is your secret for cleaning the carpeted floor mats?

An option might be to sell the Overlanding gear separately. A lot of folks on here would have an appreciation for what it is and for what it is worth.

Your ad doesnt say if the car itself has the offroad package, or if you installed a locking rear differential.

I believe the Porsche off-road technology package only came on the Turbo version. You'd get a locking rear diff and disconnecting sway bars. The disco sway bar is a nice feature but the rear diff just isn't necessary with the TC configuration. The ability to turn off ABS while in low range would be nice.

As for the carpets they stay relatively clean because there's not a whole lot of mud to go whomping in here in socal. Mostly dust and sandy dirt. My next cayenne will get weathertech mats all around.

If the car doesn't sell on eBay for its low reserve I'll consider stripping it and posting classifieds here. Located in San Fernando Valley of the Los Angeles area.

Car did not sell on eBay so the off-roady parts are all for sale. Any interest by you fellows? They're located in the Los Angeles area.

Hi, I am interested in your bull bar and spare tire assembly. Can you send me the price you are asking? Would have to be shipped if that's ok? Thank you

I tried a PM but your account is not yet receiving them.

The front bumper and rear rack are here in the Los Angeles area. Please make an offer and consider what shipping costs might be. That tire carrier alone is very heavy and anything like it is about $2k.

Not sure why you can't PM. Will check. I just registered today to see your post only. If you let me know a price on the bumper and weight I will contact UPS on shipping. Shipping is not a concern. UPS is usually very good. As far as the spare tire mount, Just let me know what you are asking or looking to receive. You can send me an email as well shufetish28 @ yahoo.

I'd be interested in the roof rack/light bar setup but I'm in FL zip 32225 so I imagine the shipping would be outrageous. I'll PM you an offer.
