I will be picking her up in 6 hours in Mass, then driving her all the way back to Arlington Va tonight. Cant wait!! Would love to know if anyone knows the owner or if he was a member here...

This was the for sale ad...

Just trying to get an idea what cars are going for these days.

I was in that dealership 2 weeks ago getting a PPI on my car (BTW, it's in NH, not MA). That is a first class facility, great customer service, I was extremely pleased. Below is the picture of the car I took while at the dealership, the exterior is near perfect. It is a monster from what the salesman told me, heavily modded and very fast, I forget the dyno numbers. From what he told me the previous owner had lots of money and wanted a super fast 996TT, so he spent. I believe it has some track time, I am sure you had it checked out. Congrats, it will be a fun ride back (if you can avoid the traffic in NE corridor).

Looks like a great deal! All those mods, an 03 with only 26K miles for under $50K. Great find.

Great price for a nice car!

But:

"...over $70,000 in performance upgrades.." Really?

Survived the 7 hour trip from NH!! Car has a three ring binder full of records which put my mind to rest. Also has the 576whp dyno run sheet. This car is a beast even compared to the 534whp Z06 I had previously. The AWD makes getting all the power down much easier than the vette, which just spun tires at anything below 60mph.

A pic of her at home all cleaned up.
