4th owner of the car, been in Northern California its whole life, was a great DD and had about 8 trips to the track. Never abused at the track, never near the rev limiter. Handles extremely well with GT3 suspension (height adjustable) and a deep sump kit on the oilpan. If not for the expanding family I would not be selling this car. If you are looking for an affordable alternative to a GT3, this is it.

Perhaps some further info on this?

Was replacement engine a Porsche re-manufactured? Used motor? Rebuilt? If so, by who and what was done?

Yes, Motor was a replacement by Sonnen Porsche in 2010 (2 owners ago), 996 3.6L, I have the service receipt. Was brand new at time of replacement, owner before me put 3k miles on it and I put 27k miles on it.

Good info... Far better than a random rebuilt engine by an unknown shop.

Did the invoice say the cause of the failure and what else was replaced at that time?

Invoice says "engine cylinder liner cracked at pistons 1 & 2 - replace motor with factory exchange unit". Agreed, this was the selling point when I bought the car in 2010 - the color grew on me :-) Thanks for bringing that up!

Was done by Sonnen Porsche here in the Bay Area. The car has been in the Bay Area its whole life. Hope to sell it to someone who will appreciate it!

SOLD - Thanks all.
