Haha that's killing me! 7 mins of quotable quotes. Look for a turbine intake fitted to Paul's GT3 next time.

Stunning looking. Good thing about the Orange is that it is free to evolve over time to any sort of long hood look.
Subtle differences there, chrome is blacked out, bigger wheels with a great finish, duck tail.

Nah - I just eat lots of prunes before getting into the car.......??

Jamie - that orange 911 above is one of the best looking 911's ever IMHO. An ideal spec car for someone like me........

Gonna list the 996tt on TM in the next couple of weeks, via Gillies for a PPI first to make sure it's 100%.

75kms, NZ New Tip, 4th owner. Preventative maintenance has been done.

Thought 65k was reasonable?

My old one had done 175k and just sold for somewhere around $45. It was in good shape although it hadn't had the coolant pipes pinned and the spoiler ram issue was starting, so maybe $5k of work there. Everything else being equal, in hindsight would I pay $15k more for 100,000 km less of wear? Heck yes. Plus you have the fast colour

You going all air cooled from now on?

Sounds fair. Nice window in the market as no 996T currently for sale on TM. Rare colour should also bring interest. GLWS.

Of interest. Sounds like the GT4 Clubsport will be a unicorn. Word is initial 20 immediately to USA race teams, 20 to Manthy for Euro summer race season. After that it can be ordered ex Motorsports Dept PAG but no sales to individuals (race teams only). Countries with sanctioned series for the cars will be allow individual orders through the local Porsche importer, but only once "race teams" have their allocations satisfied. I think this is why historically NZ new Cup cars have been so infrequent (until Lyall Williams & co got allocation when GT3 Cup was run inter tasman in the early noughties).

GT3 Cup may be coming back to NZ - I understand this is on TQ's radar with one race at HD and the other in HP???
