I prefer the updated front on the 02+ so that would be my choice. If I sell one of my cars I plan to get one.

I'd go with the 02 Targa for reasons already mentioned.

The cab sounds fine to me. Many like having the low miles and will pay extra fo it if it was properly maintained
Do you know the options and is it a FSBO?

Cool

That Targa looked sweet........I would want the 02 as it is an updated car.

OK, how about going to plan B.......those are not the ONLY 2 nice 996's available.

There are a lot of nice cars for sale, some right here on this site.

Keep looking till you find the perfect one!

It is seal gray/black. I will post pics when she arrives.

Here's another great deal... and she's just 2 miles from my house. Wish I had seen it sooner. I could've saved $2k on shipping.
