356993??? Posted 1February, 2020 Report Share Posted 1February, 2020 11 hours ago, spiller said: Yep I remember seeing a blue one for 180K private sale back in 2012. This red one is the first sub 300K one I’ve seen for a long time How many of the 17 996 RS’ that are Aus delivered were with blue stripes? they always seem to be red!? I wonder what the real sale price is now on these cars? as the dealers would probably have a significant +delta in the margin between what they paid.

WGA Posted 1February, 2020 Report Share Posted 1February, 2020 The RS at CTS has an after market front axle lift fitted which is an odd thing to add so I would want to know the background of the car in detail before diving in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiller Posted 2February, 2020 Report Share Posted 2February, 2020 I’d imagine that would be reversible. Not that odd but not common on a 996. I don’t know how many blue there are but apparently red was the launch colour and so many went with red. I prefer the blue but I wouldn’t say no to either (in my dream world).

TwoHeadsTas Posted 2February, 2020 Report Share Posted 2February, 2020 There is, I presume, the blue car from Hobart still available??? Haven't heard that it has sold, but a purchaser could be here??? Doesn't look like it is listed on Car Sales anymore though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx Hugh, that's 1/2 hour or so from where I pick the car up at 10. Do people tend to hang around for much past the 11.00 advertised finish?

TwoHeadsTas Posted 3February, 2020 Report Share Posted 3February, 2020 OK, so I'm a cheap skate in some regards. Cheapest personalised plates in Tas are 3 letters, three digits. Suggestions for the new car? Considering GTE 996 (and fiddling a little bit with the E so it looks like a backwards 3). Any other suggestions? Could transfer HIS996 from the grey car, but that really is a bit naff anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
