Perfect 996TT

If I was in the market for a turbo, this IS the one that I would get, hands down.
10k miles, love the yellow accents, PCCB, love the wheels (I just bought that set last weekend!).

The one thing I simply cannot understand, is how can you have that car and drive it only ~1k miles per year - nonsense!

WOW insanely perfect car...I agree with you! If I were in the market for a turbo I would get this one, except I don't like sunroofs which is the only thing I don't like about this car.

^^^ neither my GT2 nor my Turbo X50 prior to it had sunroofs, the turbo was ordered like that...they are rare to find but out there. GT2 and GT3 of course do not have sunroofs...and if you wait enough or look hard enough you can find sunroof-less turbos out there but they are rare indeed.

@ Sunir The 996TT wheels were actually the inspiration for the 542R that is pictured on the car in the ad. Customers wanted a similar looking style, but with a directional fitment so the wheels spun the same direction on both sides.

We have had numerous requests to bring the 542R back, but we wanted to make it better...hence the 792RS. The 792RS, is actually stronger and significantly lighter.

We will have some photos coming soon
