WTB Early 997 GT3 -- Miles and Mods Preferred

Year: 2005
Make: Porsche
Model: 911
Mileage (numbers only please): 75000
Color: Red
Price (no $ sign please): $0
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (Region): NorthEast

Title says it all. Some kid in a Honda plowed my 997 C2S Launch Edition into an 18-wheeler on the AC Expressway yesterday, and I need to replace it. This will be my daily driver, so I'm perfectly fine if it has some miles, mods, and marks on it. I loved the mechanical steering on my '05, but would prefer to start with a Mezger motor this time. I could be talked into a turbo if everything else is perfect, but prefer rear-wheel drive and can't afford a GT2. Guardsman Red is my ideal, black is almost as good. If you have something that sounds like a close fit, let me know. My only deal-breakers are cabrios, PDK/Tiptronic, and no-mile garage queens -- for anything else, there's a fair price to be struck if we can agree on it. If you need a new home for something that drives better than it looks, isn't pure enough for the collectors, or has too many miles on it to get you invited to Pebble Beach, I want to talk to you.

Thanks in advance,

Noah

Wow, you guys are fast. Thanks for the quick response! I am still jerking around with the insurance company (accident was Thursday) and it looks like it will be a week or so before I know what I have to work with. Great to know there are well-kept examples out there.

Suban: help yourself in the meantime. These are some beautiful cars!

"drives better than it looks"

If I ever sell my car, I am going to post my DME report as the first picture to scare people away and force me to keep it.
