Gosh. I’m so jaded. That seems like such a bargain to me.

Meanwhile, the opposite end of the spectrum--what happens when you decide "fuck it, I'm gonna use a GT3RS like it was meant to be used, and treat it like an open checkbook trackday car?"

Such a very specific profile of ppl who might want this now, but that's a lot of car for even twice the current bid.

There was a 997.1 C2S Cab that 911r sold on BaT yesterday for surprisingly reasonable money, too.

This one looks pretty nice--you're not going to jump on it? You don't want red?

It is. I think this is an ideal car. And the 3.8 DFI engine is probably the one to get and you won’t lose money if you guy this car, is my opinion.

I’ve driven a 2008 3.8L (non DFI) and it did not do much for much. E.g. I could not tell a huge difference between the 2008 3.8L S model and my 2003 C4S 3.6L model.

Sadly the cabs do doing very little for me and truthfully one convertible is enough.

Yes, I am not a fan of red other than Imola Red. Not a huge solid beige interior interior guy either, but willing to live with beige if the factory carpet is black.

It has been many years since I have driven a 3.6 or the 3.8 DFI. Either are probably more enjoyable than what I typically daily, M54B30 or a M62TUB44?

Nice one. Although, I am very over black.

I have owned two black autos. After the first one I said never again. Clearly I forgot that given that I purchased a second one 12 years later. There will not be a third.
