Hey guys, im new to the forum. And i must say that its great to be here, this site is awesome! But anywho, a lil about me: Last month a green minivan pulled out in front of me and totalled my Nogaro Blue Stg 2+ B5 Audi S4 And now im lookin to get into a 99-00ish C2. I came across this one and was gonna see what you guys thought. I talked to the owner and sounds like its been taken really good care of, plus he is in the PCA (Porsche Club of America) or somethin like that, so without further adu...

Also how will the performance compare with the S4? I had 315 awhp before she bit the dust. So what i guess im askin is how much hp should this porsche have at the wheels? thanks alot guys

 

Im going this weekend on saturday to drive it. They are having a porsche meet in Memphis, so there will be alot of other porsches there too! I cant wait

 

sounds like it's priced about right for the condition it's in. try to get $3-4k off and you have yourself a nice deal. Remember, aftermarket parts aren't additive to the resale price.

a properly setup S4 will feel faster than a 911 because of the torque. that said, the 911 is a wonderful ride and you'll be happy you bought it. you'll instantly appreciate the lower center of gravity. it handles very well, but feels a bit heavy until you throw it into higher speeds. give it a shot and you'll know what i mean. just watch out for very high maintenance and repair costs.

 

i think early 996's had 295hp

 

Thanks for your help man

 

for that kind of money, i'd raather get a 2000 or 2001 low mile car.
i mean, the car is pristine, but it's a 1999. upon resale, you're looking at high 20's.

if you plan on keeping it for a few years, though, i'd pull the trigger.

 

Nicely presented car, but that's all the money (and then some) for a '99. Have it checked out thoroughly (PPI, RMS check, compression test) and then offer him $5-6K less. The mods don't really add much to the value.
Good luck.

 

I would consider selling my car at that price. '00, 34K miles, 6-Speed, upgrades. Pics here:

Someone has already expressed interest but so far it's still for sale.

If this isn't the car you'd consider, then goodluck on your search.

Best.
