Well it's still got carpet, and AC, bumper supports, sunroof all factory body panels etc. I really haven't done anything drastic. I just really don't want to gut the car because I don't like the look of raw metal. I'm going to get rid of the sunroof and get a CF hood and a few other things. Need to shave about 100-150 lbs. Even after all that the car itself would be about 3125.

ya, the black is by far the best road car I have ever owned because it has all the feel of a solid track car...but with the creature comforts that as you can see, the racecar happens to go without. The pair together are unstoppable!

That is a bad dude
I don't know what you ended up paying for it, but it was a lot of car even for the asking price. Seemed like everything is relatively fresh on the car and it was maintained to a very high standard.
It is one of the fastest 996s I have seen (I keep my car out at MSR as well).
Prices for the 996 cup cars are so attractive right now. They are built like tanks. I am getting my motor rebuilt right now after getting close to 200 hours out of it. I have rarely had any issues with the car in general and it makes average drivers feel like superstars, once they get a little seat time and learn how to drive them. I hope to have mine back on the track again soon.
Have fun with it, and remember these cars like to be driven hard.
