edgy Posted 26July, 2021 Report Share Posted 26July, 2021 20 hours ago, rminc said: What are the general servicing and maintenance costs associated with a 996 GT3? Are they prone to have certain issues, as they're 20 years old now? Curious as opposed to the older aircooled cars. As many have said, they are actually very easy to live with! Two things in my experience that will increase your costs are: Track usage - but the same can be said for any car that is tracked, mainly tyres/brakes/servicing/regular alignments Motor or transmission - I am yet to pull a motor, but I have had a transmission out and if you do, don't expect much change from $10k (see 3) Mods - Seats, Cage, Aero, gear ratios, suspension etc... I did a bunch of those on my 997 and it is not cheap, if you think you will seriously track it, wait for a CS because the interior parts such as seats/cage are very hard to come by and expensive when you do... the LSD is pretty lousy in them from factory, but there is a number of options and not all are pricey, the Guard Transmission rebuild for the OEM unit is brilliant and not too expensive. Very easy cars to live with in my experience... driving them frequently is good practice too!

Jason A Posted 28July, 2021 Report Share Posted 28July, 2021 Not expensive when factor in what Aussie Muscle is selling for. Still a great value proposition at this price point. Not sure they got the description quite right in the ad - fried eggs is MK1, MK2 is eggs over easy for the US market 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
