Can't Believe it!
 
I had a buyer for my 996 C4S and he said "noway" once I told him Porsche replaced the engine due to the Master Shaft bearing Issue. He said, "I feel that it would impact the long term value of the car..." I responded "if you are looking for long term collector value, buy a 993."
:confused:

This is quite normal, many people look at the engine being replaced as a negative, we know alot about Porsche so we look at it a different way! he probably wasn't serious enough about buying.. where do you have your car listed? my brother is interested in getting a 996, i just got mine, i'm in Scottsdale!
