Conversation Between abe_911 and Slimzx7

Hello Abe
I have been following your post on your 996 TT and I want to thank you for posting this insane build.
Reaching out to you for advice, I'm doing a lot of research on buying a Porsche Turbo next year and had my eyes on the 997. But I see the price has jumped from low 40's to high 50's which is out of my budget. I see some 996 Turbo's out there for cheap so my question is should I really care on the mileage on the car if I plan to also do engine rebuild (not as MUCH as you) but to fresh'n up the motor if I end up finding one with over 80,000 miles?
Also where did you get that rear/n rear lights for your 996?

I'm also going to put performance parts on the car was well. Thanks so much for your help!!!!!
