The one I linked above was similar including aero kit but no x51 and it has sold in a couple of days at a $48k asking. So presumably strong demand at that level. Add some more for the X51. And you can’t really argue with @Troubleshooter‘s actual data Did you find out anymore details on the aerokit car? Anyone here pick it up? Cheers, Dave.

Gas Posted 15June, 2018 Report Share Posted 15June, 2018 I was keen on inspecting the aerokit car but timing off by a week. Good service history, aftermarket suspension for track days, no engine mods, non factory optioned genuine aero fitted early in cars history. 3rd or 4th owner. Interstate buyer got to it...which means there was limited local interest in Melbourne. A good buy for the new owner if no surprises are uncovered on the drive home!

Heard it was a lot rougher than it appeared. Non factory kit and wheels with track mods. However at $48K it was keenly priced. Cheers, Dave.

dan_189 Posted 18June, 2018 Report Share Posted 18June, 2018 I was curious as to why there were no interior shots, maybe that's why... Anyway can be brought back to excellent if you put in the TLC... And cash haha What were the track mods? LWFW? Weld in cage? That's all I can think of that are track specific and compromises drivability. Unless it had mono ball suspension parts which is unlikely.

Track mods were lowered suspension and extended sump. Evidence of accident repair at rear also. Cheers, Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MARTY Posted 23June, 2018 Author Report Share Posted 23June, 2018 Not huge amounts kicking around for sale on CS at the moment a couple that have been pimped up with wings but other than that not many standard coupes around.Good honest cars with full service history seem to be thin on the ground at the moment quite a few with partial service history which seems a bit odd.

""There is certainly a lack of Carreras ever on sale with the 5 or 6 main factory options one would prefer to have. I've seen hardly any evidence that new buyers optioned up these cars much. This differs hugely from the 997's"" That was the context I was referring it to. "Main options" meaning the options you'd usually like to see ticked on the sales slip. - 030 suspension, sports exhaust, sports seats, full leather package, sports rims, short shift, sports dials Sports steering wheel etc.... compared also to 997's that often have Sports chrono plus, PASM, PCM Satnav, along with the other standard S options of widebody and S brakes....

Morpheus Posted 4July, 2018 Report Share Posted 4July, 2018 Thanks Dave, from your handle are you a fellow Discovery owner also? Good manual coupes seem to disappear quickly- I have been too timid and too busy but learning a lot from this forum. james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
