What do you think?- Sport Auto NC

I posted on here about a month ago about checking out a Boxster S and a 964 and someone recommeded to me that I check out an earlier 996. So I started looking around and found this.. http://www.sportauto.us/02_inventory...oupe/index.htm I like the zenith blue and from what I understand not many were made with that color.. What do ya'll think? It's kind of near Greensboro so I was thinking of having the PPI done at Foriegn Cars Italia there? Any recommendations on the car or another shop near there to have a PPI done? Anyone dealt with Sport Auto? I did some research on ferrari chat and the lambo forums and apparently the place is pretty legit and the owner used to own foriegn cars italia. It seems like they do most of their business in Ferraris and Lambos and the dealership is part of Carolina Lamborghini. To me a ferrari and lambo dealership would be pretty legit, but there are not so honest people everywhere..so.. Thanks, any input will be greatly appreciated

I think that was me who suggested a 996! Looks like a pretty solid 996 from the pics!

Yeah, I think it was..lol..thanks man..

My pleasure! Get the PPI and see how it goes, Zenith blue is sharp.

Sport Auto is very legit. They are also a bit pricey. I have looked at that specific car. Did not buy it as it seemed a bit below the normal quality of cars they have... and the Zenith Blue did not thrill me in person. Looking at the photos online just now I think they have put some money in some cosmetics and a good detail. And they have come down significantly on the price! IIRC the car is a consignment. It has been there since at least October when I saw it.

I bought my 996 in the Greensboro area back in January. I had my PPI done at SpeedWerks [phone removed]). They seemed to really know their stuff and were highly recommended. They were able to give me a good explanation of everything. It cost about $300 but I think it was well worth it. When I went to pick the car up the PO recommended that I would check out Sport Auto but I really didn't have time.

Nice looking car! Looks like a decent price also.

I think they are legit I almost bought a Fcar from them a few years ago.

Great leather package, Xeon, Turbo wheel.

Some good stuff in that car, 3 spoke steering wheel, Xenons, Aluma-look brake & Shifter, Supple/Full leather.... nice!

Pull the trigger...as mentioned, it already has some decent options.

Thanks for all the input guys.. It has all the options that I've been looking for, so it's def. looking pretty good to me.. I get off my boat tomorrow and gotta go out of town this weekend so I'm heading down there next week to check it out and get the PPI done.

Well..it got sold before I could get off the boat and go check it out..lol.. The search continues...

damn, sorry..

What kind of boat?

Barn996... I'm a relief captain on a towboat (tug/barge) down in the Texas area..it's not a bad job, it pays the bills and then some..I work 2 weeks on a 2 weeks off..

I had a neighbor in Maine who did that in the Gulf and off of Africa for a number of years.

Off the coast of Africa? Did he work for Crowley? I have a couple friends that work for Crowley and tow rigs from the Gulf to the west coast of Africa..
