As purchased:
PO was very meticulous with this car, to say the least. Front gear diff fluid replace prior to purchase among other maintenance, fresh alilgnment, etc..
Since then, Oil changed every 6 months with 5W40 Pentosin; brakes bled with Castrol SRF.
In the last year, New Battery, waterpump, serpentine belt, fuel filter , cabin filter, air filter, clutch accumulator, frunk trunk release mechanism, new key guts reprogrammed, new sunroof seal, wiper blades. Front bumper removed to clean rads and condensers.
I have NEW Porsche OEM plugs ready to install; but car is running fine and I don't want to mess with them if they ain't broke.
Mods since purchasing,
Body colored "turbo" script from Eric at BPlugs.
LED bulb conversion in complete interior and license plate and side markers.
Function First black Poly Transmission inserts.
Interior pics As of 4/26/2014:
driver door
pass door
Lighting on this side gives the lower carpet a lighter look. It is identical to driver side.
driver seat top
bottom
Dash . Black Rennline aluminum Track mats in pic. the Carpet and mats underneath are in excellent condition
Engine
March 2014
Cryo-detail complete undercarriage.
I do have the OEM Sport Technos with OEM Turbo script centercaps currently mounted on Hankook V12 Evos/ 225/40/18 fronts are still 75%-80% ish tread, 295/30 rears pry closer to 50%
I have TRM wheels with Michelin PS2/Toyo Proxes P1
which have approx 5000 miles as a second set available FS
Current look with OEM Sport Techno wheels
Buyer has priority to purchase the below items or negotiate into the sales price:
NEW Forge Silicone black boost hoses
NEW PTP Turbo blankets
Fixed rear spoiler hardware
Rottec CF rear spoiler
New Falken FK 452 295/30/18 tires
The rear spoiler works, does not show signs of leakage; but I have kept a close eye on the system due to known failure. As a result, I have purchased the fixed spoiler hardware ..
My detailer has done some clearcoat polish to the entire car; I had it Opti-coated approx 2 years ago. I wash as needed....with CR Spotless DI Wash and electric blow dry.
Nanoskin Auto scrub and a nice coat of synthetic wax.
Car is kept in the garage or undercover. I cannot spot any harmful effects of the sun or heat on the paint or interior........
My detalier also has pointed out two areas on the paint where the clearcoat has thinned out. He has paint metered the entire car; everywhere is within spec except the roof which was resprayed by PO, LVDell, due to a mishap in the garage, IIRC...... photos included..
Natural Leather Grey interior is in great shape. Driver Seat has wear but no rips or nasty areas. Front Dash is in excellent shape; no Leather fading or shrinking.
Pass door had a very minor chip, which I fubarred with a small drop of Porsche Paint. No dents anywhere that I can see......
The lower rear quarters show some road rash and previous track history, but it doesn't bother me since this car sees daily use, rain or shine...
I have the current Autocheck. The Autocheck does show the one accident in which an old man slowly backed his truck into my front bumper at a stop light on my way to work. The damage was only to the clear bra and a very minor scratch to the front bumper.
I have pics and paperwork....
As a result, the front bumper was repaired and resprayed as was the the hood due to the minor chips the body shop saw upon closer inspection.
Looks great AND a fresh clear bra was then applied to front bumper and half hood since it was part of the insurance claim due to the accident.
Side mirror clearbra redone in the last year. I had the installer remove the older clearbra on the half front fenders due to some cracking, but did not replace.
LVDell did mention in post #2 about the roof respray/ blend which is very difficult to tell of any repair.
Here's a small pic of the dent from his archives....
contact via pm, email or cell number.
TIA,
Ed.

Where else can you buy this kind of performance for about $40 grand. This was a $120K car! 996TTs are killer deals right now, but this one is front and center.

Joking aside, the 996T and GT2 unfortunately are NOT following the Air-Cooled craze. To expect that, one isn't thinking logically. The contrary has occurred.
OP did not get original asking........He received a lower offer as indicated by prior posts. As are others when sifting through Pelican and Rennlist.

It will take a while for prices to come up, I do believe in 20-30 years a clean 996tt will bring very good money and be hard to find= that's just my opinion not fact lol. I will probably list my car and while I may not get my asking price I would not fire sale it or take ridiculous offer . I'm not referring to any seller per say but I believe a lot of people seem to buy and resale very quickly after realizing the costs involved with this level of car . People mention the bargains but most people are still paying good prices (45k plus) for clean decent miles 996tts its just not worth bragging about. If you pay attention most bargain hunters are soon on site asking for help with their problems..

Honestly, I couldn't disagree with you more. Just perusing through the forums has led me to some interesting findings. The most glaring is the fact that one is asking a "similar" amount for an X50 when a 997T can be had (very similar mileage) for no more than $5,000 difference. You and I can both agree that the 997T in its most inferior form is a far better option than the nicest 996T. I find that humbling and honored to know that I can jump into a 997 for almost the same money. Unfortunately the 996 will forever be plagued with being Porsche's bastard child. Only the GT3 and GT2 elicit contrary notions.
I will say this for the 996T: for the money, it is an amazing car with some work. Too name a few would entail an LSD, revised Suspension geometry, and some lightening of weight. I raced with them and they are humbling machines (even more with AWD delete). Also, upkeep is modestly more than a standard 996. I would not hesitate picking a Turbo up over an N/A. I would lie to my mates and say otherwise.......
