CapnHyaku Posted 30March, 2021 Report Share Posted 30March, 2021 This would be a bargain '89 964 Cab... But I think it's a seriously overpriced 996 Tip actually.https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1989-porsche-911-carrera-manual/OAG-AD-14245964 😆 tomo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tips Posted 12April, 2021 Report Share Posted 12April, 2021 Interesting this is back up for sale within a fortnight by new owner. I was chasing this as a potential low ball if they were desperate to sell, HK car. Watched it go from $78 to $68 spoke to AH who did the servicing and they gave only a little info but had just completed major service. Interesting that the owner never disclosed replacement motor so still well overpriced in my opinion. When it showed sold the owner advised me it had gone for a PPI (don’t know where) so then obviously sold. I wonder what has surfaced either financially or mechanical? Trying to sell around the price it was purchased for. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2004-porsche-911-carrera-4s-cabriolet-996-manual-awd-my04/SSE-AD-7145424 tomo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomo Posted 12April, 2021 Report Share Posted 12April, 2021 His explanation of the engine, Ims and Clutch sound confused or may be he is confused to what actually happened to the car. Tips and CapnHyaku 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having the engine replaced early in life does not negate the IMS issue (unless you're in the IMS sceptic group). It only means that you've got a newer one that still needs something done at some point. This engine will for sure be single row IMS and should be done as priority in my opinion. Maybe the owner has baulked at the quote from Hamilton to do the IMS? From memory Hamilton insist upon the replacement as a service item instead of implementing the oil fed solid bearing. Maybe the current owner is not happy doing that every 50K? tomo and Rod C 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought exactly, considering original seller didn’t mention and actually told me wasn’t sure of the IMS situation, now it’s not a problem......🙈 a bit like my quest for a hardtop. People’s opinion of what’s great condition to mine is very different. One was sitting outside in the weather for a month, mould and not disclosed before I drove to Newcastle, the other had a chunk of paint off it where he had ripped the black wrap that was put on it (not mentioned it was wrapped then tried to take it off before I got there😒) and still wanted full wack....... just makes me wonder.... tomo and CapnHyaku 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get a sense of what I am trying to find, my ideal result it is an ocean jade base model manual with the original fried egg look but I would definitely consider clean and original over any specific spec. Is there anything out there?

Yep it's been advertised a few times before in Cairns. Must be last purchase was through wholesale somehow and now a dealer in Sydney is flogging it.

michel Posted 23April, 2021 Report Share Posted 23April, 2021 ocean jade is a thing of rare jewel beauty and clearly if we take @McLovin for his word even desirable for some. I’ll admit to be quite taken by it and did try to negotiate to buy it from the seller, prior to purchasing ‘Klaus’ from SA he (pilot) listed it last year on gum. 40k is what he wanted , but had no real recent service history but an honest car and had been in QLD since new and I understand d the dealer who bought it from said pilot had been fangin it about for the past year, aside from time in workshop attending to deferred /needed servicing maintenance. I offered 37. And despite not enthralled with black , and loving Ocean Jade , still more than glad I bought Ben’s modded fruity 996.2 over this. firstone and JWM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishcop Posted 23April, 2021 Report Share Posted 23April, 2021 Are we at $90k for an auto (albeit wonderfully low kms and history)? https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/porsche-911-2002/oag-ad-17574050/?utm_campaign=search-alert&utm_source=notification-center&utm_medium=email&csn_atid=b88bee59-486b-4805-8065-d5cef16f249c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carsales glitch, or back with the same dealer? Agree $90k is more than I would put down for a tip, but you can't fault its kms / condition. That said, if it were manual where would it sit price wise. $100 - $110?? Naldz88 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
