if you did crash it, i hope that you are okay, but the way that you have made this post makes me wonder whether this is all accurate or not. this "i crashed it, and i need a 2nd hand one" is a bit unusual. sorry if i have insulted you, but that is my feeling.

I agree. It seems like you may be unphased about the whole thing. I also mean no disrespect. Either way I am sorry to hear that, was anyone else hurt? How did it happen? Do you have an pictures?
What replacement do you want? Another 997TT?

Hope your ok, that would be a total bummer about your car but I always try to look at the bright side of things, and I am assuming that no one was hurt. Machines can always be replaced. Tell us what happened?

Got a new turbo on friday
I got a new 997 tt on friday its black on black...basically i flew over a ramp and crashed my front into a big dip...i messed up my radiator and suspension...i also crashed into a big pole on my side door. The insurance company was able to pay for the full amount, so i ended up getting a new one.

By the way i would like to post pictures but there seems to be a problem for me to post it, so maybe u guys can teach me how to post the pictures.
