I've been looking on AutoTrader for a used TTX50, and have come up with one car in particular that seemed solid. Can you guys recommend some other places to look for a used Turbo?

If all goes well, the South FL crew is going to have another member

ebay has a bunch. X50 is unnecessary, especially since you're in So Fl. Those guys will convince you to go Stage 4GTR anyway.

Well, the car's actually going to my dad, and he doesn't care too much for modifications. I might be able to convince him, though
Mmm... Stage 4GT/GTR or iAGT/GTR.

Ha! It's the Porsche version of the Ferrari Market Letter!

Do you have any pictures of your car, Ken? I'd like to see your rollbar.

Yeah, looking only at X50s really makes it difficult. Just look for a "regular" TT and with a $500 chip you'll have X50 or better performance (and probably save money too).

If your still looking and dont mind buying out of state Mike Stead Porsche in Walnut Creek CA has a 03 Turbo X50 Blk/Blk 6spd. You can contact Ted Fisher at (925) 280 4900, I believe it only had 3k miles and was asking $125k.

I prefer an unmodified car. Fred's car is undoubtedly an awesome machine, but it has been driven hard.
