Gee Wayner - I wonder if that owner did the $700 Raby IMS retrofit or the $200ish Pelican IMS retrofit? Guess not.

Have you ever heard how mid year cars pull head studs, how SC's break head studs, how 3.2 cars wear valve guides, how 964's leak at cylinder joints, how 993 wears valve guides and clogs SAI system? Maybe you just searched for 996 to try and prove your point. Every generation has an Achilles heal - the 996 is no different. The 996 problem affects 5 - 10% of the cars and with a fairly simple fix, becomes a non issue. The 996 preventative fix is certainly more palatable than a top end cost. I got no skin in this game as I got a great deal on my car due to this

Just because you read it on the internet doesn't mean it's true.

1999 Porsche 911 Carrera Convertible - City of Toronto Cars For Sale - Kijiji City of Toronto Canada.

From the advert (looks like the price is cheap though).

"Recently bought this car from states but the engine seized and now I am not able to get the repairs done since I cannot afford to spend that kinda money ...
