PCA magazine just did a story of a 500K mile 996TT with a Tip, and if i remember correctly the g-box was the only thing they didn't touch!

I just picked up this '03 two weeks ago. 22,100 miles, full history from two previous owners, both were commercial pilots, traded in for a Cayman GTS. X73 suspension with engine mounts installed and aligned by a Porsche Premier dealer, black interior, heated sports seats, sunroof (sorry Matt), short shift kit, Europipe "Quiet" exhaust (a little louder than stock but not Ricey). $49K cash. I am really happy with this car. I can't believe I was so hard-headed before as to not consider one due to it being a 996. Never liked the interior or headlights, but it has grown on me very, very fast. It would make very little sense spending $15K to $20K more for a 50K mile 997TT.
