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.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I didn't run a carfax on it, PPI was complimentary, no issues, actually they said I can return it in 30 days no questions ask for a full refund. Is not a 1:18 scale, about the IMS, I couldn't find any records if they change it or not, this morning I heard a strange sound when reeving up, I lifted trying to recreate the same sound, there was no leaks or anything, hope you guys can help me identifying this issue here's the video.

I too bought a second one today. Was out at the mall in Burlington, Ontario looking for a shirt, then I go by a hobby store on the way up an escalator. In the window is a 996.1 metal model kit.....go in and look at it.....then I look at the models and I find this: 996.1 GT3 model! So I bought it....now if I can build it!
