Another one, but at that mileage and with replacement engine (no mention whether it was a Porsche supplied engine or just a rebuilt one, with or without new IMS) probably $15k too optimistic????  Condition otherwise looks OK

Why do all these advertisements say "Front & rear power windows" ?

Did I miss something? Can I open the rear windows in the 996 coupe? Or is this just carried over from a cab?

No, don't think you are.  Door windows only open.  No idea why it would say front & rear......

Standard carsales blurbs automatically inserted are never really accurate.. always inserting stuff like great for the family or p plate legal.

Now this is the one I'm really interested in... Close to identical spec to mine with 20k more on the clock and a $144 asking price (mine's better again ;) ).  https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2003-porsche-911-carrera-4s-996-manual-awd-my03/SSE-AD-13398833/?Cr=0&gts=SSE-AD-13398833&gtsSaleId=SSE-AD-13398833&gtsViewType=showcase&rankingType=showcase

For memory this was for sale at Lorbek back in 2020 when I was on the hunt! It had a 12 year gap between services if it is the same car. I’ve still got the service book on my email.

The pics in the ad are blurry Lorbek photos (on my browser) that were lazily inserted from his original purchase. Verges on false advertising when sellers put up pictures from when they bought the car years before. 

Have seen quite a few ads with showroom floor pictures from when they picked up their new car (not necessarily Porsche), drives me nuts. What are they hiding, dirty floor mats 😁

Yep, pretty sure that's the car.

I enquired on it when it was a private sale when it was from memory going for 88k but the massive gap in service history scared me off!

Keen to know what this actually sells for - noting 'on hold' at $123k https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2003-porsche-911-carrera-996-manual-my04/SSE-AD-13364960/?Cr=0

Just saw it's back for sale with a price drop (still dreaming) ... Another one playing the "put it on hold then back again" game ...

Actually a buyer playing games.. it was sold but then the buyer got cold feet.

We were talking elsewhere about this apparently being a new “tactic” … but of course this can happen lots too … what do they say about assuming … 😅
