Some inside info for all my fellow Rennlisters, the reserve is set @ $25,000
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Hope I'm not out of line posting this here. I attempted to join Rennlist as a member but the 'new member - pay via paypal' link was not working. Once I get that sorted out, I'll post in the classified section. Thanks for looking.

Here you'll find the same posting as E-bay, just with fewer pics.
Thank you all for looking and digging my 'man space'
Brgds, Peter
Of course it occurred to me if you can't access e-bay, you probably cannot access Craig's list either so.........

Hello and thank you for looking at my beautiful 996. Truely impressive power and poise. I've owned everything from a 1956 356A to 911 SC carrera and turbo, this 996 is not only faster by far than all the others, it does it with comfort and ease. 6 speed manual, shifts perfectly, 78,629 original miles, Champion Motorsports exhaust tips, 18in hollow spoke turbo twists with Brand new HTR ZIIs and when I say brand new, I mean less than 5 miles on them (not kidding). Cross drilled rotors in great shape, pads and 90%, stops straight, no shakes, Sunroof functions 100%, Motorized tail functions properly as do both third brake lights, no leaks, cold a/c, Clutch is solid, Factory Becker cd player functions properly removable face plate with case, power windows function properly and can be operated the traditional way or with the key in the door lock, factory alarm, clean car fax, no outstanding recalls or warranty claims.
Things that bug me: Seats show some wear, previous owner installed a matching gray wheel with carbon fiber trim however it is from a tip-tronic........... obviously the tip buttons do not function, Air bag is connected original wheel/airbag is included, there are some nicks and small dents consistent with age and use. 2 nicks in the front bumper are deep, Previous owner installed 100w high beams which generate too much heat for the plastic lens, this is a common mistake from non-porsche-philes result is small singed area on both left and right lens, passenger side window has a scratch, trunk release lever shows wear from going in and out, scratch on the drivers side front fender, 2 wheels have some rash quoted $145/wheel to re-finish. Key fob remote is not functioning quoted $183.50 to replace from dealer. $28,000 or best offer.
That is all I can think of right now. Needless to say, I'm committed to disclosing not only the good but anything big or small to perspective buyers. I want you to be happy and comfortable bidding. I am a life long porsche freak and have maintained every car I've owned. I do take pride in my cars and hope this car finds a good home.
Please ctc me with questions, I will do everything possible to answer quickly and accurately. Many more pics available.
