Finally got a car--I hope
Finally got a car--I hope
I've been a member for a bit as I started looking for a Porsche of my own. I was looking at 996TT and 996 GT3s and really thought in the end I would get a turbo car. I finally got to spend some time in a 2004 GT3 today and ended up buying it pending a PPI. The car has 10k miles on it and is arctic silver (my first choice color) and looks like it's never been out of the showroom. A few factory carbon fiber bits, and the beautiful GT3 wheels.
The car is just awesome, I really liked it.

Come look me up. I'll let you drive it and reminisce! Buddy of mine is PCA driving instructor with a black 04 GT3 and I plan on getting ample free instruction as well as terrorizing the autox. There's plenty o' clear bra on that thing so I'm good to go.
first off congrats, did you buy this from century 21 motors? Just wondering it looks like their showroom, and btw arctic is the color of choice

I'm not familiar with century 21. I bought this at Ferrari maserati of central NJ in Edison. Arctic silver was my first choice but of course it's tough to chose what you'll get on a 6-7 year old car.

Is it a CPO??
Mr. B
do not move on... if the PPI indicates no paintwork and meachanically checks out... and it is already with links, lowered and susepension... this is good if you are planning on tracking it...
Links are good if lowered
what suspesnion?
what pads are they?
does the car have stock rotors -- looks like it in the pics you posted but hard to tell...
1 year of cpo left and assuming the ppi indicated no significant over revs... I would not let pads and suspension deter me... in fact I would likely be more interested...
How much are they asking for it?

Congrats...I was eyeing that car as a replacement for the boxster.
Just one thing...
Doe the cpo continue if the car is sold by a dealer?
I'm not sure about that with Porsche.

Sorry, I need to repost as I accidentally deleted while on my iPhone. The car has been lowered, control arms, bushings, links and pagid yellow pads, stock steel rotors. It has little slits in the carpet where there was a roll bar. The service manager, service writer and the tech said the car was really nice. It had to been track used but it doesn't really show the wear of track use, their words, not mine.
It has 2 of the lowest level over revs. One as it was probably being driven off the lot at 1 hour and one at 364 hours. He said it was probably missed downshifts. The car needs a battery (which the dealer will have them do) and that's it.
They are asking 59 but it can be had for a few k less than that. I am going to buy it contingent on the battery and brake fluid flush (recommended by tech).
