^ No the owner is obviously an enthusiast given the performance mods. He changes the fluids.
Apparently he drives the 997 into a transporter and takes the car to Porsche events like councours competitions. Comes home, drives it off the transporter and back into the garage.
Repeat for six years...

LMAO - "He changes the fluids"...
He hasnt even empty'd a 1/2 tank of fuel... perhaps all the other fluids were changed yearly or in between shows
You never know why people buy or sell stuff they've hardly used... there's probably more to the story - BUT either way whoever buys it is going to get a pretty nice car. That car looks cleaner from the underside than mine is topside...

Don't see the value in spending that kind of coin to win some blue ribbons and a smattering of acrylic trophies. They must have more prestige than seen in the photos. And agree if you're going to do this, he should have chosen a more worthy version.

After completing the paperwork, the new owner should hop into it and rip off a nice patch when leaving. The old owner would just crap himself.
