^^^^ Ya see...this is what confuses me. Universally folks say this is a great motor and to see 200-300k miles is not unusual. But the 118k is high miles. I like the 996, but a stock one... I'm just going to lose a lot of money, but if I pay a little more for a tt, then down the road I wouldn't lose my shorts. I don't need all that HP, but what the heck. Just a little confused here.

If I stumbled onto a Silver exterior / Red Interior 996TT I would be hard pressed to pass it by. I saw a silver/dark red 997TT this morning heading to work and I about chased the guy down...

If I'd already sold my SC, I'd being asking for more pics and do a meet and greet with the owner so I could see the car. Ca car and real close by.

I'm guessing the seller notes are killing it...
“A couple minor door dings on right side, small scuff here or there, ding in front hood from under, there is some drive line noise from transmission (possible pilot bearing). 6 speed Transmission shifts perfectly, good clutch. Runs & Drives Great.” |

Now in 993 land ...

I had one of those tranmisssion noises in the 993. "probably a pilot bearing" uh-huh! Rrrright!
About $8k later I had a new Guards LSD differential, steel synchros and shift fork, a full rebuild and no more noise! G |

How Comfortable is the Ride?
After reading this article, it makes it sound like it's not much different than my SC, and the main reason I'm selling is because of comfort. Additionally, what's the going rate for a PPI on a tt? Seems to me the computer does most of it, and except for leakdown, visual would do the rest.....brakes, oil leaks, switches, body and paint, etc.
