He ordered it then, just confirming he ate it. The #3 price went unaffected sadly.

Probably selfish on my part, but I like the fact values of 996's are what they have been. It has allowed me to add a Porsche to my garage with out having to have a reluctant sale of another car to make a purchase possible.
I considered a 996 turbo because of the issues and reputation of the M96 engine. But instead I chose a decent '99 coupe with the intentions of an engine rebuild, then I would go through the suspension, brakes etc. as needed myself.
Presently the car is at Flat6 Innovations getting a 3.6 Stage 1 rebuild including the IMS Solution.
I welcome the criticism which has caused the undervaluation of these cars. They've given me a gift!
I also own an SRT6 Roadster, another undervalued car due to the same thought process of car snobs. This car has been the best bang for the buck purchase I've ever made!

I personal don't know Magnus, so I can't say if he's cool or a total dbag, however I enjoy watching his videos and his narration of the early 911 experience. I like his taste in vehicles although I believe he is lacking in personal hygiene amd grooming standards

In related news, Magnus Walker, Texas Ranger was cancelled after three episodes. It turns out that Chuck Norris with dreadlocks driving like a bat out of hell to various Cars & Coffee events meets the needs of no known demographic.

This is accurate. However, if you like Porsches and insist on referencing Magnus Walker more than twice a month - slam your testes repeatedly in the dishwasher door.
