Sounds like you got a great price. I really kind of limited myself by wanting guards red. I don’t see too many up for sale unfortunately.

If that's the color you wanted it's worth it And yeah they are hard to come by. Took me a bit to find my midnight blue.

Thank you! Been a blast to drive so far. The person who last owned it really took great care of it. I couldn’t be happier.

for fees I meant BAT, AAA auto insurance (so I could avoid the dread California DMV), DMV registration, etc. and yes the BAT fee isn’t insignificant. About $3200 iirc on top of the purchase price. I was still happy at that price though

Wow congrats on the beautiful car! What a find; great that it has such low mileage. Allow me to share pics of mine:

For me too it was Guards Red or nothing!

Guards red is definitely a fine color for these bad boys.

Nice pickup! I am looking at a black on black 07 Turbo with a 6 speed manual. Has 46k miles and the seller is asking $60k. I will be looking over the car tomorrow and making a decision on selling my very rare beloved wagon and getting into one of these toys.

I love Guards Red but couldnt find one by me. My stepfather has a Guards Red 997 C4S Cab that he has put over 110k miles on top of the 19k he bought it with and it runs like a top.

That's really cheap these days. Is it a cabriolet? Any accident history?

FOR SALE Custom Red 997TT- $75K in mods 1000whp- $95K





I noticed a lot of people saying they like the 911 in Red...I couldn't agree more! Red is my favorite color on the 997 Turbo. I preferred a little deeper-darker red so I painted my car (A54) GTR Red. My car is a 2008 997.1 TT Cab and has very low 23K miles. I have $75K into all of the performance mods alone in addition to the paint and custom body work (comes with 2 body kits). I will be selling everything for $95K. Fully built motor; rods, pistons etc. 1000whp- low 9-sec 1/4 mi. It's very hard but I think it's finally time to let my baby go; I am second owner). I'm starting a new business and need to liquidate a few toys so I'm in a more stable financial position before pulling the trigger. Please private message me if you or anyone you know maybe interested.
