Hello everyone we have 3 hours remaining in the auction on this beautiful 996 Turbo. This car is truly amazing, I think driving it is the best part. The way it hugs the corners and the speed it has, is just awesome. If possible, please try to place your bids before the last few seconds to ensure they go through, as internet connection can experience unexpected interruptions. Thank you everyone for all the comments and interest.

Hi the paint meter reading were just uploaded. No signs of paintwork
Additional content has been added to the gallery for this listing.
@911Vic Thank you.
@jmorin
Hi yes we will upload paint meter readings shortly. No we do not have a DME report available.
Are you able to provide paint meter readings on all the panels (except the Techart pieces of course)? Also, is a current DME report available? With the replaced DME, I realize it's of somewhat limited value but it would still be reassuring. Range 1, Range 2, and operating hours.
How far above 60k is the reserve? I was surprised it didn't sell on BaT.

Hi we don’t know the brand of the wheels. We looked everywhere to find maybe a sticker or stamp and could not find anything. Also no we don’t have the original wheels.
Bid in the amount of $45,000
@911Vic Do you happen to know the brand of the wheels? They look like Kinesis, but I can't be sure. If they are they might still have the Kinesis label on the inside. Is it correct to assume the OEM wheels are not available with the car? Thanks.
The listing has been updated.

Hi Nice catch i will tell them to change that.
The description above says Cabriolet, I would have PCAR fix it.
