We are pleased to present this coveted 2004 Porsche 996.2 GT3 finished in Speed Yellow over a black leather interior with deviated stitching. Equipped with a legendary Mezger flat-six engine, this 2004 example represents one of the most highly regarded and collectable water-cooled Porsche’s on the market today. Said to remain in pristine factory condition, this GT3 is now being offered for auction showing approximately 31k miles on the odometer.
This GT3 sports an iconic Speed Yellow finish. Having always been stored in a climate-controlled facility and never subjected to track use, this GT3’s exterior is said to remain in excellent factory condition. Detailed images are provided in the photo gallery. Noteworthy details include Xenon headlights and factory GT3 alloy wheels which are currently wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport tires.
Inside, the driver is situated in a sporty black leather interior with painted hardback Sport Seats and deviated stitching in yellow. Factory options include a yellow painted center console and Porsche crested headrests as well as a shifter and brake handle in carbon fiber. The seller confirms the interior to be in exemplary condition with all gauges, electrical components and accessories remaining fully functional.
This GT3 is equipped with the coveted GT1-derived Mezger flat-six engine. This naturally aspirated 3.6 L power plant sends 376 HP to the rear wheels by way of a crisp 6-speed manual gearbox. 0-60 is achieved in approximately 4.5 seconds while reaching a top speed north of 190 MPH. Commonly regarded as one of the best modern 911’s to drive, Road Scholars asserts that the 996 GT3 remains “…the truest to the earlier air-cooled sport purpose models.” Reported to be up to date on all scheduled service, this GT3 underwent a recent fluid and filter change and is ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.
The sale of this stunning 996 GT3 will include a set of two keys, original books and tools, service records and a clear title. The included Carfax report cites a potential odometer rollback from 22k miles to 20k miles, however, the seller has confirmed this to be a clerical error. Do not miss out on this incredible opportunity to own one of the most celebrated and desirable water-cooled Porsche 911’s on the road.

Sold for $59,996
@kfitzpat9 He also added that the dealer who last serviced the car notated no immediate service needs.
@kfitzpat9 Hello, we are on the phone with the seller who is currently driving. He said there is no leak that he is aware of.
Bid in the amount of $59,996
Was the oil leak referenced on picture 71 ever resolved? RMS leaks/seeps are normal but the repair order mentions this leak would require further disassembly to determine.
@cgfen Ahhhh i see.
Below references a previous advert with other seats.
I have a nearly identical car, in which I switch back-n-forth between Yellow Sports Seats as shown in this sale and a set of Euro GT3 seats.
@rsabeebe Hi.
I know the seller has already replied, but I'm curious as to your question.
The spec sheet shows painted back sports seats with Crest and Deviated Stitching.
cheers
Craig
@rsabeebe I will consider the paint as new and very well taken care of. All original paint and professionally ceramic coated.

@993nut thank you for the reply on the seats. are there any blemishes, chips, scratches in the paint that are not highlighted in the pics? since you haven't shown any in detail, i'm curious how you would characterize the paintwork? for me, on a car like this, paint condition is critical.
thanks.
@rsabeebe the seats in the pictures are the oem original seats that came with the car from the factory and will be the only seats that are sold with the car in this auction.
I'm curious about the included spot seats. The original seats are the ones that are included? I ask because the seats in the car are as described on the spec sheet. Exact replacements of the originals were put in? Can you add some info on this and maybe supply pics of the other set? Thanks.
@Trappistmonk latest DME reading uploaded in gallery. Thanks
@GPCBUYER yes, Carfax can be fixed with all the listed documents in the gallery supplied.
please expand on the odometer issue? If this was recorded by a dealer while being serviced then it can be fixed by the dealer and carfax.

@993nut thank you for the additional information. The more info the better for forming an idea about the car when bidding.
@Trappistmonk more records have been added with mileage circled. Please see gallery for latest addition. DME report coming soon.
@993nut thank you for the quick reply. Do you have any other maintenance records besides the one record from 2015? Maintenance records would be a great way to confirm that miles are actual. How many owners did the car have? Usually it is highlighted at the top of the carfax, but I did not see it.
@Trappistmonk Thanks for your questions. I will try and get a more recent DME report but as I have only put 2500 miles on the car during my 4 year ownership from 2016 to now and haven’t never tracked it myself, I thought that DME report is sufficient. The car was in a collector’s hands in Ontario from November 13 to May 14 and has not accumulated any km during the 6 months storage as we know how harsh Toronto winter can be to these cars. The car was then up for sale again in spring weather in May 14 and got sold to the Alberta owner prior to landing in Vancouver. The Alberta owner did not put many miles on it either, hence the great condition of the car and seats. The RS style buckets are non OEM items that were installed by previous owner and that’s why I didn’t want to offer them to the next buyer due safety reasons. Hope that helps.
The overrrev / DME report must be from 2011. Km indicated is 34,488km, which translates to 21,429 miles. According to the car fax the vehicle had this mileage in 2011.
So, i would say that this report is not very relevant anymore. Any newer report available?
The carfax also has 2 odometer discrepancies. 8/30/2013 the mileage was listed as 22,775 miles. 3/18/2014 the odometer discrepancy is flagged with 20,082 miles, but then the next entry on 05/12/2014 is still below the entry from 8/30/2013 at 22,733 ... What happened with this car in that 9,5 months that no miles were added?
Additional question, what happened with the bucket seats that were listed in the previous ad? Are they still available? It does explain why the seats still look so good.
I really like the car, but the 9 year old DME and 2 car fax entries would need a better explanation to make me more comfortable to bid.

@Mercyhealth . U.S. buyers will need a letter from Porsche stating that the car meets EPA and DOT standards which can easily be obtained from PCNA. Companies like http://www.cosdel.com are very helpful when it comes to custom clearance and transportation logistics.
@993nut do you have an appropriate suggestion for shipping into the United States?
Ooh la la... speed yellow unicorn
@993nut got it. Cool car!
The GT3 will come with 2 keys, all books, and the original sport seats.
Will it come with the buckets from your previous ad?
