Serial Porsche addict at it again! :)

Well looks like Crimp is heading for a new steed. His 'GT2 look' 996 turbois in the PH classifieds, stunning!





Sure it won't be around for long.

What's next?

[jkh112]

I am interested. Would love to change my Carrera for this.

Here comes another topic

GT2 badge on the back? Fail.

Marcus as a massive 911 enthusiast as you know been a supplier of my very first 911 "SC" and me been an ex owner of a "real" GT2 I would have agreed at one time.
If you saw the car you would think differently and to be honest a Turbo badge wouldn't suit it.
Maybe a 911 motif of just leave plain?
I like it and everybody who has seen this epic vehicle has complimented the car, and it came with the car.
Each to their own, a badge doesn't take away what an amazing car it is.

So what's next Ed?

That's what I figured. The car looks great but if it were mine I'd probably change the badge, maybe to a 911 one like you say.

Good luck with the sale, not that you ever seem to need it.

Think I've done the 911 thing!!
Fancy a 968CS like hens teeth though.

Morning Ed, Lovely thing the 968CS, but I'll give it 3 months (or less) before you move it on

Morning mate.
That long?
Don't think I'd find one in 3 months.
Dilemma I have is where do you go from the car I've got as its a lot of car for the money.

[SEE YA]

Nice one go for it look forward to the pictures.

What about a old V8 Aston Martin for you for a change?

In 2 minds to be honest.
Especially with the current values heading North!

[drmark]

Crimp,

I must introduce you to my wife. You make me look positively restrained!

Edited to add: 968 CS cracking car on track but dull on the road after any 911. At least that was my experience. Had two 968s.

Still an epic fail though to have that badge on, crosses the line to a lie IMHO made worse by the GT2 script on the sides

Always jump into a 911 model Crimp is selling! He's terrible on the sell side! Yes he's always broken even or made a small profit but what are the Carrera SSE Cab, 964 3.6 turbo, G50 930 and GT2 now worth?!!!!! Hey ho its only money!

Hindsight mate.
Never mind i'm up financially over the last 12 yrs so not complaining and its been fun.
I've worked out that after maintenance etc its about 25k up.
So the current stead is a freebie

Hey Ho...........

[shantybeater]

Nice looking car, very similar to what i'd do if I went the modding route. Are they genuine wheels or replicas? Did you source them or were they on the car?

Not sure TBH
They were on the car and look fantastic even better in the flesh.

They look like 997 wheels so they're 19's?

What about a 928 GT? Something I've always fancied.
