I had a near 7 figure car insured once it cost 2k per month. Car polish companies and insurance brokers are cleaning up at the moment ..both in equal demand with totally different usage profiles mc968cs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in at Autohaus sorting annual service and talking to them and the volume of top end cars going through there and selling but never hitting the market (or carsales ) is amazing. High end P cars.I guess I bought my 993 C2S that way (ie: had a standing expression of interest) come to think of it. Still….that 997 GT3 RS 4.0 was $1.1m!

Do 4.0l cars have sticky buttons and radio dials too? Didn't think that applied to P-cars here. Ferraris sure, but P-cars are generally immune. Can't help with the sticky buttons, as a fellow Gen 1 owner, it is f***ing annoying. symsy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sticky PCM knobs and the heater switches wearing/scratching away are a easy and cheap swap for new job. https://climarepair.com/ Only relevant to the 997.1 I also made a short video on how to replace the heater switches with new. sleazius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
