TrevMcRev Posted 12September, 2016 Report Share Posted 12September, 2016 I know I'll regret this but..... thought I'll put this out in front of the forum first... Here's the Carsalesy copywriting and cliche pics. I might list it up there soon unless I change my mind. Australian delivered, matching numbers Porsche 911 Carrera 996 series 2 and comes in the most desirable configuration of 3.6lt, 6 speed manual RWD coupe. Finished in stunning Arctic Silver Metallic over a dark Metropol Blue leather interior it is a classic Porsche colour combination. The first owner generously spec’d the car with a host of expensive factory options. Originally delivered through Porsche Center Melbourne in March 2002, it has had only 2 previous owners plus myself, all Melbourne based. This Porsche has full documented Porsche Center Melbourne dealer servicing from 2002 - 2012 with Porsche extended warranty maintained through annual inspections for the entire 10 year period. From 2012 to current it has been maintained by an independent Porsche specialist with all maintenance and servicing up to date. Current odometer is 118,000klmsFactory fitted options from new include:375 & 376: 2 Way Electric Sports Seats (Left & Right) - Wide, hard backed with perforated leather 983X47: Carbon Fibre Gear Shift KnobX58: Carbon Fibre Handbrake635: Rear Park Assistant411: 18” Carrera 5 Spoke Lightweight Alloy Wheels Powered by a 3.6 litre engine with 235kW power @ 6800rpm it launches to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds.With the power windows down and sunroof open, the iconic Porsche Flat 6 cylinder engine is an intoxicating and addictive experience. With ABS brakes and 4 airbags protecting driver and passenger it’s a safe drive, but we both know that’s not why you’re buying it... Power steering, cruise control and climate control air conditioning will keep you comfortable even on long drives on the warmest days - try that in an old air-cooled Porsche!The series 2 996 really is a great 911, still giving a very ‘raw’ driving experience. It is not dumbed down by the modern driver aids featuring in the latest Porsche’s, nor is it hot, heavy to steer & uncomfortable like the older cars. They are fantastic buying right now, with the 996 “hero” models such as the GT2, GT3 and Turbo rising dramatically recently, the next enthusiast model in line is the series 2 Carrera Rwd Manual Coupe. This spec has the best power to weight ratio over the heavier 4S, cabriolet's and autos, and even the later 997!, and being Rwd retains the steering feel Porsche is famous for without diluting it by sending drive to the front wheels. Getting this modern classic now while you still can will prove to be a smart move!It comes with all new delivery books, all original service log books, all 10 years of annual warranty inspection documentation, original sales book, 2 x original keys. Recently fitted with new battery and Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tyres. Victorian registration is paid until March 2017. Will come with a complete roadworthy certificate. The smiles per mile are worth every cent at $64,950.Trev. 0414 520 269 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
