You may want to put a bit of lube on your keyboard. The exclamation point appears to be sticking.

LOL if he just sold a cgt for 330 there must be a pot to hand
Big difference but their are different people for different cars.... some want a zero mile car to add to a collection of "art" which will never be used. There is always a person for the cheapest car on the market as it represents value and you wont feel bad to add to the miles and track it.

Flemke, I guess you've completed a fair few track & road miles in your Carrara GT, perhaps you could give us an insight into the durability/ running costs of the car.
Mine's done about 7,000 miles, something like that, including about 40 laps of Nordschleife and 15 laps of Hockenheim. Nothing so far has needed replacing, so I couldn't say much about running costs.
The brake rotors are almost like new. Everything feels tight.
I'd say that, if anything, the car needs a lot more miles before it will feel run-in.
Running costs may not be such a issue,you can buy wheels cheaper than porsche,or fit bbs.
Discs can be retro fitted/converted
Engines and gearboxes,well at the end of the day it is only a car.Everything can be fixed,yes parts will be expensive,but i am sure it will be worth it.
I think these car will do 100k miles easy,a v10 that is very understressed,and dont let a hotrodder/tuner mess with it,and i am sure it will give you good service.
Even the clutch is no big deal to change.
Expensive part is road tyres ,rears are 350 each,
Even insurance is not bad at £1400
The only reason i have sold my 993gt2 road car,is to replace with a gt at some point,but only when they have settled in the market place,i dont like loosing the hard earned!I am sure there will be good low miles cars about,but i agree with JW,with these type of cars its best to get a good one if you can.
JW you should not be smoking in the gt,its bad for your joints!!
Vic you dont want to get second gear in one of these hey!

its pretty easy for all of us to say what we got for a car in our heads.... but in reality and in the real world did the car sell for 330k or near ???........mmmmmmmmmm.....

That's fair enough, but it does not mean that you lack any vested interest in pitching things a certain way.
