Agree it's beautiful, but market is softening on all but the most enthusiast-focused 996s. Been happening the last 3-4 weeks.
Thank you everyone.
A bit disappointing — especially because this rare ultra-low mile turbo cab is truly beautiful.
We appreciate everyone’s interest in the car and thank you for being part of this auction.

@skalra I cannot explain the bidding but the vehicle is beautiful and next to perfect. The 20,000 mile service has been completed and the vehicle needs nothing. At under 14,000 miles it is barely broken-in.
Surprised to see this 996 not shattering the $50K mark and it didn't sell at $60,500 on another site. Do others know something about this car that the rest of us don't?
@Brcjets you can find us at Autos of Palm Beach.

You are listing this car as being sold by a dealer.
Could you please provide info on your dealership.
Thanks in advance.
@zacharyshea Looks like the 3 inch kit to me. Which is slightly higher than factory on the cabs. About half an inch.
The coupes were lower from factory by about an inch vrs the cabs.
Bid in the amount of $35,250
Ok friends…Final 2 hours.
If you are unsure…Take another look at photo #14 and then come back and bid!
Enjoy the rest of the auction.
@skalra Thank you for your inquiry. The rear window on the Porsche cab is glass.
Good luck with the auction.
Is the rear windshield plastic or glass?

@zacharyshea. Thank you for your interest. Unfortunately we don’t have any of the receipts and we do not have any additional parts.
A very nice, clean 996tt cab! Do you have the receipt for the Rennkit eRam installation, and when was it installed? Which eRam height does this rear wing have (2, 3, or 4 inch)? Do you still have the original hydraulic ram that came witht he car? Thank you in advance.
@tcmiami305 The interior is Metropol blue which is a very dark blue.
Is the interior navy or black ?
It says navy but the pictures look black.
The cab is blue I can see the difference.
Any chance if it navy to get a better picture?

@jimbo991 Jimbo991, Nice to see you back! Unfortunately, no we do not have the original sticker. We have the option /build tag that does outline how the car was built. I believe it is photo #123.
Do you have original sticker
@amor1064 The vehicle was previously Porsche certified, But the certification is not transferrable. I am unsure how much “time” would have been left on the original certification warranty.
Hope this helps, and happy bidding.
Jim
Beautiful Car. I'm curious-to-confused regarding the certified Porsche sticker. Is this a past Porsche certified car or is it being offered as a Porsche certified car? If so, how much certified warranty is remaining? Thank you.
Looks like didn't sell on another site for $60,500. Surprised didn't sell as it was a solid price for tiptronic.
