Joz Posted 14May, 2021 Report Share Posted 14May, 2021 Looking for an Aust Delivery only. Prefer a manual coupe but will consider any configuration as long as its the right car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1q2w3e4r Posted 15May, 2021 Report Share Posted 15May, 2021 Most everything has sold over the past 3 months. I'd suspect a manual Aust Coupe is north of 145k, cheapest one listed was at 149k and they ranged up to 165 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim45 Posted 15May, 2021 Report Share Posted 15May, 2021 Needs some visual "undoing" and auto but negotiating at 95k. https://tinyurl.com/34mf3c4w Joz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joz Posted 15May, 2021 Author Report Share Posted 15May, 2021 ^^ very blue😳 wonder about its history? CS has 7 996tts listed. A few imports amongst them.

But have found many sold well under advertised $$. though for the coin being asked I really want something I’d be comfortable with and making excuses about things like weird color combos. I tend not to chop and change so really wanting things that tick more of my boxes. Shopping in the price range is not to easy for me and buyers remorse sucks.😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They paid $85k for it so could be some good wiggle room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they nearly sold it but the finance fell through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest what wasn't right with the navy blue one? I did a deal on another one recently, but I did keep coming back to look at it online wondering why it hadn't sold yet. I ended up with a seal-grey tiptronic which was my preferred colour. Steve996, Merv, sjm and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure really. It was my first TT that I went to inspect, it was shiny but had some small paint issues. Nothing major, I think I became infatuated short term. Now I'm not sure what Lorbek (which is around the corner from this car) does but all their cars seem to be superbly presented. This was by the front door of a warehouse on a major road, perhaps it was just dust, or perhaps the paint was not as perfect, bonnet stone chips and a scratch on the rear pillar or lack of quality detailing , who knows? They wouldn't even start it let alone let you test drive it claiming a flat battery. But after inspecting some others I saw that were just presented better, again who knows? BTW, I've learnt to love silver, your car looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's a red flag. If someone's trying to sell a $100k odd car you would think the least they could do would be find some jumpers and start the bloody thing. I would be walking away from this one with zero regrets... Joz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merv Posted 16June, 2021 Report Share Posted 16June, 2021 Interest in the Tiptronics is picking up from folk who don't want the worry and expense of clutch and slave cylinder replacements on the manuals handling all that torque. I know of several people actively looking for Tips. I would probably never buy a Tip on a NA 996, but on the Turbo it really matches the torque curve well. These are great cars and the TT "Metzger' motor is only one of its party tricks, the AWD is the other. Nice wheels KOV-Turbo Twist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If possible upload some more pics Hi Kov, Initial impression of the car is it's more capable than I. The tiptronic feels like a perfect match for the motor. Haven't driven a manual turbo, but I'm sure the manual works just as well. I probably had a slight preference to find an auto but it was never going to be a deal breaker. kov and Merv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
