Can anyone shed some light on this 996 Turbo

[barrieeld]

Hi folks,

Was looking at the below and was looking for some advice.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PORSCHE-911-TURBO-AUTO-T...

Does this car have some sort of aftermarket side skit body kit? And the exhausts although the tailpipes look stick they seem to stick too far out compared to others I've seen, can anyone confirm this?

bar the hideous window tint, and sick interior colour what rings alarm bells with this car? The ad says carbon fibre trim package but the steering wheel etc is like silver? Is the factory or aftermarket?

If i could get the car at the right money i would look to put original alloys back on and remove tint etc.

Any help on this one would be good

I would jog on, based on the interior colour alone.
Can't see from the photos clearly enough what's going on with the body kit , and yes tailpipes do stick out too far.
'S' stuck on the lid as well.

Keep looking I would say

I think you can find better. There are more than a few available. Infact saw an ad for one on 911uk which was being sold by an enthusiast.

How the hell anyone can cosider buying such a secialist and potentially expensive car on Fleabay is beyond me

I know the amount of owners isn't necessarily an issue, but if the adverts correct that car's had one per year!

And the ruffled seats, in that colour....

Just in case anyone was wondering I was planning to get a turbo as a project track car....

Really? is an automatic turbo the best starting point for a project track car?

That car is what is known as a 'dog'. 15k extra miles on the clock than its driven! Why on earth would this be!?

Ok thanks guys,

I'll leave it alone.

If it's only a track project, you would be able to get a previoulsy accident damaged/repaired Turbo, that's reduced in price due to being damaged/repaired with better history and credentials than this one!!

It looks like the Porsche Aerokit front splitter, but I doubt it was factory fit otherwise the fixed rear spoiler would be on there too.

Ruffled leather, Savannah, non-sports seats. Each to their own, but whoever spec'd.this car needs shot.
