  • We finally bought a super cheap Porsche 996 Carrera! We bought this car sight unseen from auction for the price of a used Honda civic. Unknown mileage, won't start, non running, roll of the dice! Can we get his car running for the first time in years? Yes, this is the most hated 911 generation, but I think that is unwarranted. This is one of the best sports cars for the money!

    Not stock sounding exhaust, but stock tips. Therefore perhaps Fister mod or Gundo hack on the stock mufflers. Great buy if the engine is healthy. A lot more can go wrong besides IMSB.

    Nice buy! The ticking is a concern…most people think it’s lifters but I’ve been burned by bore scoring….sounded just like yours…if the exhaust tips have unequal carbon or it’s burning oil, probably a good idea to bore scope. Good luck!

    • @frankieieie

    I got a free 996 C2 manual because the owner died while the car was disassembled. He took it apart to replace the IMS, unnecessary since it was a dual row and in perfect condition. For some reason he stopped working on it after getting the old one out and the car sat about 10 years. I put it back together and have been driving it for just over a year with no issues.

  • @georgetown8986
    @georgetown8986 Před 4 měsíci +3

    The hardtop alone has a decent value. They are rare and actually look sharp on the 996.
    The exhaust looks factory and sounds factory. Does it show PSE as an option? PSE is rare on all 911s.

    I have a pretty rare 95 3000 gt sl spyder value $16,000-$26,000. So in the middle would be $21,000. I had it 7 years and put 4,000 miles on it, always garaged. I’d trade you for the White 911. My car value can only go up, this one really won’t. A win win. What do you say young man. Mind you I just have a valve job since the timing belt went, $4,500 later, damn.

    @andrewmurphy565 Před 4 měsíci +1

    During covid they had an incentive for some tax write offs on cars that were donated not sure on how much but it was well over the value of them and these older porsches people took advantage of the higher write off vs the sale value and paying taxes on the car. The cars then sit for 3-4 months before they are auctioned so thats why the batteries often die and then JR garage takes advantage of the auction companies not wanting to deal with it. What a steal of a car for 8k!
