Car is in fantastic shape and condition can be verified thru multiple local 6speed members.

Things I've done since I picked it up from Tony:

- Car saw 1 day on the track (4, 20 minute sessions of DE1, which I did on street tires, and wasn't pushing the car because it was new to me). TimAZ on the board can vouch, he was my instructor
- Coolant Reservoir Replaced under warranty
- Replaced a key with newer 997 key fob
- Tinted windows with SunTek's top grade tint 30% all around
- Replaced Bosch Diverter Valves under warranty
- Replaced Gas Cap under warranty
- Changed oil at 60977 with Rotella T6 5w-40
- Performed rear wiper delete with bumperplugs.com insert
- Install Work Brombacher VS-XXE 19" Wheels
- Install Nitto Invo 19" Tires

Things worth mentioning:

- Front aero lip has some paint chipping
- Rear bumperettes are painted white, one has some chipping on the top
- Driver front caliper has some paint missing on the edge
- One front Work VS-XXE wheel has clear peeling on the lip only, replacement can be had for $400 through WORK Wheels, or a whole new wheel through Vivid runs roughly $9xx.

What I will do before selling:

- Replace front brake pads
- Perform another oil change

Car is amazing, runs strong, looks beautiful, turns heads and gets lots of comments. To make a long story short, my labrador was diagnosed with Addison's disease a couple months ago. Treatment runs me roughly $200/mo, plus I have his blood checked regularly which runs me $140 every 12 days. I don't care what some people think, "He's just a dog, etc, etc" - he's family and it's expensive. While I enjoy the 996tt, my interests lie elsewhere.

I'm asking $51000 for it with the work wheels. I will sell it without the wheels for $48,500. I paid $49,500 for it and have added a couple of small things.

Thanks for looking

Thanks Ed, downside is there is no cure, upside is he'll be well taken care of in our family. He'll live a normal life as long as we keep up on the treatment.

And your dog is awesome. We had to put our dog down this year because of cancer but we did everything for her-she will always be family.

After reading through the original FS post, the CPO warranty expired in 10/2011, correct? Does it have additional warranty coverage going forward?

That will be up to whomever purchased it. My local Porsche dealership recommended Fidelity (I think). I was looking at a couple of others and doing some research. I drive the car on the weekends, usually, but it was raining this weekend so it stayed in the garage.

I was considering Nationwide Auto Warranty, but I couldn't find any info regarding claims.

I took my car in a week before the warranty expired, they did a full check and noticed the coolant reservoir needed to be replaced, along with the gas cap.

To answer you question - No, no current warranty.

Too bad you have to sell such a beautiful 996TT, especially so soon after buying her.

I went thru an incurable illness with a dog recently too, spent a ton on her and would have spent even more if it would have meant somehow saving her.

Thoughts are with you, your family and your lab.
