THTH,

Let me know if you get the black 03 in SD...I was looking at it but was really turned off by the wheels. Not a big fan of chrome on P cars. I'm curious though if someone sees it....I just get a bad vibe off it.

Good luck- 600 miles from me, so I can't help!

Could you elaborate on the DME Dump, please? What all will that tell you?

It tells you of any fault codes stored in memory- even if they did not result in a 'check engine light'

Most importantly, it tells you of Over Revs- Type 1 & 2. And when they last occurred (in 'engine hours')..do a search, extensively discussed

HEY: I like that white one, but I believe you've indicated your're looking for a tip. None of the ones you posted had much in the way of internal options, rather plain...and I'd be looking more towards the ones for sale by the folks in the forums....here, Rennlist, RennTech and PCA. You can find them much more nicely "appointed" in the interior with factory options that please even the most discerning eye. Take your time...there are quite a few of them out there...and the prices continue to come down...much to our dismay.

CPA, could you give its full address?
Renn Tech, I do not see where is the forsale forum or classified section.

Thank you

Spend some time and go back a few months.... you might find unsold, and also perhaps get good information on the market...

Thanks a lot Ard !

Saw 1 yellow I like at autotrader.com 3 weeks ago, $49999. And 1 of the member in rennlist went to do a quicklook for me last friday, they said it sold last saturday.
Now, they relist for $55996. What a bad business practice !!!

BTW, this is 100% cash deal. Who wants to sell me your car, please pm or email.

Porsche 2002-03 996TT:

1. tip
2. White, yellow, dark gray, black.
3. must be in excellent condition exterior and interior.
4. I will get an PPI, so please be honest upfront.
5. No black wheels, and blemishes on wheels are unaccepable !
