Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

18 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It has been about a year and a half since I sold my 993 and I have missed having a Porsche ever since. I have a Superformance Shelby Cobra that I can take my aggressions out on, but it is not as refined as a Porsche. I finally decided to take the plunge and found a very nice 2000 996 Cab. 6-speed. It is from the Newport Ca. area until almost 2 years ago when it was brought to Wa. I am told that it has never been driven in the rain, and it looks like that is the case. The guy I bought it from is a car guy through and through, as I am. The car has 56k miles on it and represents itself well. I will need to have the front bumper sprayed. Has a sweet stainless exhaust system that sounds amazing. Also has real Ruf wheels that I have always loved! Oh I can feel the slippery slope coming on. Jake

POST 2Original post

Welcome to the Board. Nice looking car. Hope you enjoy it as much (or more) than your 993. Pics must have been taken after the recent flooding. (a lot of water for Puyallup) :-)

POST 4Original post

nice looking cab! thx for the pics. Ruf wheels look great as well, nice mod to have included in the sale.

POST 6Original post

Congrats on a fine looking cab with perfect RUF wheels. Pics of your Cobra would be nice as well...which motor did you put in it?

POST 7Original post

Good lookin car and I love the ruf wheels. I may get a set of them down the road. The 996 is a much better look than the 993's.

POST 8Original post

Looks like a sport suspension was put on it as well since it sits lower than stock. Nice!

Here you go. The car has a 427W with 500+hp, Tremec 5spd Trans. It even has AC and heated seats. Rare items in a Cobra.

Quotes source post: 9204691

I like them in different ways. I still have a great love for a C2S and would love to find a low mileage red one with black leather. The down side is that I could buy 2 996's for the price of the 993 I really long for.

POST 11Original post

Welcome Nice pics and interior looks pretty well taken care of Enjoy in good health

POST 12Original post

Nice looking Cab. Looks like one over here in Sequim!

POST 13Original post

congrats! the 996 looks very sharp: triple black with the silver highlights is a great combo. But the Cobra is "pure...adrenaline" . the polished wheels def make it stand out as if it needed to already. must sound/run like a beast.

POST 14Original post

clean cab. you will not be disappointed. welcome

POST 15Original post

Nice Cab, are they Ruf wheels? EDIT: Never mind I see others have commented on the wheels.

POST 16Original post

POST 17Original post

POST 18Original post

Nice cab! Black sure is beautiful! Welcome to the 996 forum and enjoy the new (to you) wheels!
