Does anyone know this car?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/200957503732?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p398 4.m1438.l2649

I am looking at a bunch of different options when it comes to 997 turbos. I am looking at stock to mod and everywhere in between. There are some things about this car I like and others I don't but could change. I was just wondering if anyone here is familiar with the car. Thanks.

Personally, I'd avoid modded cars.
Bone stock and mod it yourself.
Ck out that black one with 600 miles.

That's why this place is valuable. I am definitely leaning towards stock but there are a couple of modded cars I have been taking a look at. Hell I bought Justin's (triblk6spd) Adv wheels and haven't even bought the car yet so stock would be better.

With the 997TT all you need is a good exhaust, bigger IC and a good tune....

By the way those rims are sweet!!

Actually there is nothing more boring than a 997TT automatic.... That was one of the reason why I sold my car 6 months after I bought it.

Yes th 997tt tip or PDK can be quite boring, I had a tts. At first you use the paddle shifters right nd left, but within a month you just leave it in D like the other commuting drones. I kept mine about 8-9 mos, couldn't wait to get rid of it.
I just looked at a nice white/blue ford gt, now that is a car!
