Highish mileage but looks OK and forgot to mention it wasn't for sale plus I think the gearbox might need some work.

If you just look at the current Carsales advert you'd think it's something special on first glance However the Trading Garage info shows it's actually done 190,000km not 90,000km. Also shows its been fitted with second hand pistons and cylinders and the resulting compression testing ain't all that flash either! Definite case of buyer beware required here.

Good spotting Pete I have located it on 3 other previous adverts and yes some very average maintenance. Buyer checked it out and seller has advised he is now considering storing the car as a keeper🙄. Freind that’s buying hasn’t driven a 911 and is flipping all over the place between air cooled models so I have suggested he go and drive a couple yo get his focused narrowed rather than just loom at everything and wasting time Yeatesy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a 5 digit odometer on an almost 50 year old car, it could be 290k or 390k. That said, I don't really think kms are relevant on any car that age, it is all about the current condition. t888, Tips, Yeatesy and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My beef was the misrepresentation of the km travelled.

Good points, however the Carrera Sport wheels were available as an option on 997.2 I believe. The steering wheel is interesting. I believe it may be due to: Car being a Manual (PDK steering different shape and paddles) Optioned as a Multifunction steering (Audio volume, Phone functions & dash modes iirc). I have seen other 997.2'a with the same steering wheel when its a Manual with Multifunction, but not sure if that's consistent through the years, or just in the first year(s) of 7.2 Eg, Here's another 997.2 which is Manual and Multifunction. It also has Carrera Sport wheels. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2010-porsche-911-carrera-s-997-series-ii-manual-my10/OAG-AD-20385608 Yeatesy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard of a 997.15 Turbo which had an interesting spec but I don’t think there was a Carrera like that. @luzzo option codes courtesy of Stutt Cars were XPV & XRR 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
