I've been convinced to start looking for a 996, so I'm listing my 968 here in anticipation. I've only had it a year, and I really hadn't been planning to sell it, so it has the best of everything. I bought it totally stock last August and spent all winter going through it. It is currently plated and insured in Ontario, though I trailer it to the track. I built it to be a rock solid track car, and it is. All the important safety modifications have been made. More photos at the bottom. Just ask if you want to see anything specific.

Black interior
Redline roll bar
New Sparco seats: EVO 2 driver and EVO 2 Plus passenger

Under 100ml of oil used per 20 minute session (this is excellent)

Redline MT90 in the transmission
Shifts and power are both excellent, even under full load

I've had the privilege of driving this car at the Glen, and it's everything that Charlie says it is. Couldn't ask for a better-sorted track car, especially one that's fully streetable if trailering's not your thing.
