Looks so good, I just did a buy it now! Thanks!

Just joking...It looks fine. You need to post in the 996 Turbo section of this forum though. Only think I know is the 2001 Turbo's had issues with 2nd gear popping out of the tranny.

Congratulations, that is one fine Turbo. Make sure they can document all service, they can be expensive to repair.

nice purchase

i would remove the warts rom the front bumper and also have the rear bumperettes painted body color, it will really clean up the look of the car, rims look pretty nice actually but if they are not your taste then you should be able to sell them pretty easily

welcome

I've bot three cars on Ebay, including my 996 years ago. $50k in buyers insurance as part of Ebay lemon guarantee. If it's at a Porsche dealership, they can typically do full inspection for around $500, which will tell you anything you need to know - they can also measure paint depth around the major panels to see if any unreported bodywork has occurred. A reputable dealership is also good neutral territory for covered transport to collect car, if you aren't close to car for pickup. Good luck with purchase, nice ride!

Mileage seems kinda high. I guess the price fits in that case.
