It was at $80k last night, which I think if the ad is true on the quality of the car, makes it really well priced.

$80-85k

Hi Luke, There's a Sunshine Coast group that does very regular drives. May want to look on farcebook for them. or reach out to @brian in buddina for deets

Probably flat tyres. 996 turbo is under-braked and benefits from upgrading from the 997 parts bin...

This Sunday. New location of green point! Would love to see a massive variety. If you are coming to spectate please park across the road at the train station as last time we overfilled the carpark well and truely. See you all soon

Poms love their white interior. So many UK 911s from that era came in white. On hold - what was the listed price?

Didn't know whether to put a sad face or smiley face because unfortunately it's so close to the truth.

This one has also come back off hold today, and with a price increase! 🤣

Still stands.

What is it with all these dealers trying to pump up the prices… Seriously let enthusiasts buy and drive their cars!

Sold.

At that price I will be surprised if it moves at all.

Flat tires and its been asleep for a few months.

YVMT. Yarra valley motor trimmers. Lovely guy, lovely pricing as well.

Oddly enough, been for sale for ages.

Sounds like the car just needs some TLC. Shouldn't be any issues with steering or brakes in any 996. Might also be worth checking for any previous front end damage (just to rule it out!)

I’ve only spent a day driving one but that was not my impression at all.

Doesn’t sound correct at all. Mine doesn’t feel dissimilar to any other car with both weight and effort. Seems like something is amiss there.

Im looking to buy a 996 Turbo and test drove my first one recently. Having owned a 2013 991 and a 2015 981 Boxster previously I knew how good the brakes and steering were on a modern porsche. I found a very nice example of a 996 Turbo with low klms and in pristine condition and got behind the wheel keen to have run - but was underwhelmed. This car is in storage and doesn’t get a lot of drives but the steering was very heavy - to the point I wondered if it had power steering. Then when I braked I had to really lean on the pedal to stop the thing. It was only a short run in a built up area so no time to warm it up properly. The guy selling it suggested it might need air in the tyres and maybe a wheel alignment. Also said the brakes need to warm up - and he would check the fluid. Does this sound correct for a 996 ? It was a disappointing run and I wouldn’t consider this car for a daily drive - a real beast to manage. This differs with what I have read about the 996 - a expected a real handling machine with a light touch. Appreciate any feedback on your experience.
