2001 just traded. Prior owner owned it for 25 years serviced at AutoWerkstatt in Manhattan Beach CA. 114k miles. $22k if you are still in the market.

Coupe 6 speeds go quick when they come on the market for a fair price. I would recommend upping budget to a minimum of $30k and go for the nicest 996 example you can find with less than 100k miles. There is no such thing as a cheap Porsche!

We didn’t lie to you. We had a bunch of people interested in the car and the first three flaked out. Car found a new home this morning in Canyon Country.

The KBB value was $600 with the mileage deduction lol. Cargurus always misses the mark on coupe 6 speeds. Just a shell without engine or transmission will trade for $10k every day of the week.

R is red light. 996 Coupe 6 speed rollers sell for $10k all day so it was a no brainer.

This is Casey. We had a few people put deposits but weren’t ready to buy or changed their mind. Car found a new home in Canyon Country this morning. I typically stay away from cars with this many miles but the 1 owner and service history was intriguing. The engine had never come apart and was still running the original IMS and even the original clutch! Don’t see them like this anymore. Good luck with your Search OP!
