02 996tt, Midnight/Cinnamon, 19.6k, immaculate
SOLD!!!
My car has languished at Specialty Sales for 3 months, so it's time for me to put it in front of you guys again, but with a much lower price. It's perfect for the guy who wants something besides black, seal, or yellow and is tired of black interiors!
I've had tons of views and compliments from the various venues where I've listed my '02 996 Turbo, but no solid offers. I've dropped my asking price to $60k for this immaculate, low mileage car with a quite rare and attractive color combination. Both the Midnight Blue Metallic paint and Cinnamon Brown leather were extra cost options, as was then deviating black carpet. I'm not sure how much leather is standard, but this car has hides on the whole dash (including the horseshoe), front and rear consoles, all the roof pillars, the panels next to the rear seats and across the back, even the slats on the center HVAC vents. This is in addition to the supple leather seats and leather on the doors. The interior reminded me of the Ferraris I looked at prior to deciding to go German.
The exterior and interior are in outstanding condition. The paint glows and the leather smells wonderful. There are no stains, no tears, no broken bits (although the cup holder can be reluctant to expose itself sometimes), no scratches, no dents, no door dings, no bodywork. The only negative result of having 19.6k miles is a few of the inevitable tiny stone chips in the paint in front. I've maintained the finish with Menzerna products, including their Intensive and Nano polishes, and FMJ. The car was washed with CR Spotless DI water and blown dry with a Toro dedicated to drying the car.
All the running gear is likewise in excellent condition. There is no 2nd gear problem, no funny noises, the car accelerates, brakes, and corners as a 996tt should. Similarly, the clutch engages where it should and feels solid (it has never slipped while I had it). I have always followed the 1-2 minute cool down before shutting off the engine. There is a lot of life left in the brake pads and tires, and the rotors don't have any micocracks (or macrocracks, either!). The car has never seen a road race track, but I did take it to the drag strip to see what it would do. Wheel hop put an end to that experiment!
Modwise, the car has clear side markers, short shift kit, and BumperPlugs rear wiper delete and driver key slot filler. The spare tire, jack, compressor, and full tool kit are all there, and I have all the rear wiper parts. So there you have it, a 'no stories' car that is both beautiful and in beautiful condition. I'm asking $60k. PM if interested.

Wow, that certainly has to be the cleanest in that color combo I can recall. Sorry to hear the sales is taking a while, at $60k it sure seems you'll find a buyer.
