Interior is 8.5 or even 9 of 10 since I replaced the HVAC unit and a few other worn out bits.

You will have a hard time finding a 997 that doesn't have worn out HVAC controls that look terrible without replacing the entire unit.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hey all,
I searched the forum and it looks like it's been a while since there's been a thread on this.
I live up in Santa Barbara, but I'm planning on heading down to LA to look at one or maybe two 996's in the near future.
Any recommendations in the Burbank/Van Nuys/Hollywood area?
In particular, it'd be great for me if a Saturday were a possibility, since it's a bit hard to get down to LA on a workday.

Selling my 2006 Carrera S, manual transmission. It has been a great car with no mechanical issues. The car was certified pre-owned by Porsche with 58k miles and now has 75k. Due to age, the warranty is no longer in effect. I have all records back to when the car was new. Last service at 72k - just oil and filter. I have the build sheet, all the CPO docs, stamped maintenance book, everything is here.
Sport chrono package, bose, black gauge faces, and heated power seats are some of the options.
The wheels are plasti-dipped, I like the look but it can be removed. I bought the car with chrome wheels, but just could not live with the chrome. The wheels are straight, and road forced balanced to perfection.
Never on track, never over-revved. I am happy to bring it to either of 2 independent shops in Kansas City for PPI at your expense. We have Rennsport KC and BHR - both Porsche specialists. I found no over-revs or other issues when I purchased and inspected the car.
Car condition is good-excellent, paint is all original, no body work. There are several small dings, barely noticeable but would make me rate the body 8 of 10 based on that and small rock chips across the front end. Interior is 8.5 or even 9 of 10 since I replaced the HVAC unit and a few other worn out bits. I just spend $900 on that stuff so it is perfect. You will have a hard time finding a 997 that doesn't have worn out HVAC controls that look terrible without replacing the entire unit.
I am including some photos here, but also a link to more hosted on google docs.
