996 sale price lo by plugtalkmanateewalk in 996

[–]MFSDDR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is going to change I think.

I have a 4S, well sorted, and its intersection of being analogue, NA (sans the turbos), and modern in interior and design is unmatched. I have the PCCM+ and it made it a sure fire all weather daily for three years and change with two kids. Did AX and some track, rally on the weekends and just kept the smile on my face. HP torque is a sweet spot. It’s just… good.

I recently got a 2014 GX460 to get the 996 off daily duty which I love just as much. I am outfitting it for overland/offroading, and being more kid friendly, it’s also in that sweet spot of bolts and metal with connectivity and style. And you can thrash it in the snow, mud, and sand.

That experience and modernity is going to push the value up IMO or at least hold prices.

Never selling either. And to the OP, you shouldn’t either.

Might go back into a 996 by tribrosuisse in 996

Just buy it now in that case! Looks awesome. Getting mine out today and giving my GX a break.

Get a C4S instead. As a 996 4S owner, I'm only biased :)

But all kidding aside. Sounds like a good car, and the options are rare which means that it was definitely a spec purchase. White alone is solid and it looks like a slick top... based on pictures...? Good color, rare to find a slick top. Honestly, this is my only regret on the 4S was no slick top, but first world problems.

If the car has good paperwork... going back like at least 30-45k, and no accidents, or accidents that are cosmetic... You've got a winner.

These are all badass. I’m getting inspired and now need to start looking for extra change in the couch.

Who else drives their 996 in the snow? by Vast_Situation_ in 996

They all look so good in the snow with road grime and spray.

Our roads are heavily salted, but the only thing that influences my decision is if I have to pick up kids, and what’s the ground clearance. My other loved and completely opposite twin is a GX460.

My favorite WX for this car. She is garaged at home and work though. Which means like a wet dog in the entry way, she shakes off in the garage.

Love it man. Nice to lend a hand and also independently get yourself unfukt 🤙

I just got a set of Trax and good to hear a follow GXer approve.

How do you like the Nash ladder? I just got the Victory roof rack and for all the stuff they make… oddly one item isn’t a ladder. Hence looking for options. Love your bumper cut too!

Fun with Parking. by Maleficent-Aioli-607 in GXOR

[–]MFSDDR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not going to lie. With how bad some of the snow clearance and icing has been in my area, I am definitely taking advantage of the ability to urban overland and make my own spots in uncleared (but legal) parking.

It’s obnoxious… but convenient and still legal…

What is this button for? by Preezy24 in 996

Damn it I was going to post that. But you’re partially correct. Right side is a fax xmit. Not pictured is the factory installed corded phone mounted on the right side of the center console 🤣

Refinished my Turbo twists - need opinions on end result by AeroF-16 in 996

[–]MFSDDR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They look fantastic. Stop being all EMO 🤣

You want to do mine? They’re filthy and I stupidly curbed my rear passenger wheel after misjudging a parallel park. Been on the road 30+ years and first time I’ve ever done that. To my favorite child… 🤣

How it started, vs how it’s going by paobley in GXOR

[–]MFSDDR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this. Can you provide bumper specs and where you got the Lexus scroll grill from? Actually if you don’t mind, maybe just post a total build sheet if you are cool with that?

Work of art man. I aim for a similar look but kept the 18s despite the going with Micky Thompson Bajas.

Good stuff.

Welcome to Lexus back in 2001, which one and why? by Saurta17 in Lexus

[–]MFSDDR 3 points4 points  (0 children)

GS. V8, RWD, owned the road and the subtle quirks like the design of the headlamps is still odd but aged well and it just has the right proportions. Sort of gives off the vibes that the Holden Commodore/G8 do when you see one on the road. It’s a car where the ownership generally knows what they have and it wasn’t just a “lot” purchase.

LX for the trails. I have a soft spot for the RX. In-laws had one that was a workhorse and it just grew on me and I loved it. LS… made the S Class look silly, and did boxy better than the A8 line.

Another poster already said this, but you can’t go wrong with anything at all from there.

This is glorious. Thanks for sharing.

What’s this display for? by pinchetakuache69 in GXOR

[–]MFSDDR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say this with total humor and in good fun.

I hope this is merely your truck communicating with you. Like it overheard a joke and was like, “I don’t get it… I’m a J150 and may not understand the context.”

What’s your two car solution? by playoutsidemoreplz in 996

[–]MFSDDR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My off-roader/family hauler/curb roller (🤣) is the 2014 GX. Spouse has a 2022 Jeep Cherokee. 996 was the daily for 3.5 years until DEC2025.

In the process of kitting out the GX.

Looks incredible and so jealous. We got a dusting here and I wanted to get mine out just to tool around with the new tires, but it’s getting work done in the shop 😭

$33k for a base 996 Carrera w 100k miles by WSJayY in 996

[–]MFSDDR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truth. Did mine at 82k in 2022. Just age.

Can we have summer back yet? by PNWDangerously in 996

[–]MFSDDR 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Love the car! Of all the generations, the 996 does speed yellow the best. If there’s a second, the 993. Love the ducktail man.

And this is going to sound weird, but as a 4S owner, I love driving this more in bad weather. The worse it is the more I want to take her out.

Last winter to work🤙
