Guys I’d like to request that we don’t turn my for sale thread into a rather pointless argument. All is well, no big deal.

Amen to that!
My original comment was intended as a playful jab, a misinterpreted attempt at levity.
GLWS!

You interested in trades? I know my wife would toss me on my ear if I brought home another car.... unless I got rid of one while I was at it. :-)

Well....maybe. What I should do is focus on getting a boring commuter car, because I’m currently putting about 40 miles per day commuting in my F250. But my track record with boring cars isn’t great, so let me know what you would offer up. My email is mattjessupbba at gmail.com.

'fella', feel free to take as much offence as you wish. and at anything you want. i do not care whatsoever what offends you, if what i typed offends you, or if you are offended right now. my post was not directed at you, had nothing to do with the inane back and forth about number of photos, or how people feel they can type whatever they want without offending anyone as long as they put a smiley face at the end of it. stuff like that is pretty standard on the forums these days and not a big deal.

what i do not like are people who think their post count gives them some kind of authority over newer members. post count is an indicator of absolutely nothing and that is what i typed. fella.

You didn't, frodo, that's why he said the post wasn't directed at you. Someone else DID, however.

C'mon y'all..... this is one if the nicest 986 cars I've seen for sale here..... and the "devolution" of the thread detracts from it. (Yes, I think I made that word up, Haha)

Whipped puppy, seriously dood: BEAUTIFUL CAR.

You're always good for a great chuckle! I'm pacified.... it's after 5A. Or is it 4A?

Thanks, Man.

Uh... RK... that would be me, "Post count guy".

I'll clue you in...

You don't walk into a bar supported by regulars and start talking smack... s hit... ya know? Ya get to know the regulars... become one of the fellas/guys (insert your pronoun here)... become one of the group... then you can start jesting.

Ya feel that? And, no emoji for you.

Have a great day. I mean that.

you've clued me in? to what? some rules you've made up? i don't buy in to your rules, nor should anyone else. this is not your forum, you don't make the rules, you do not dictate what happens here. ya feel that? your post "Especially from some new girl with only 34 posts" that i quoted below breaks actual 'rules'; it is a personal attack which violates forum rules, and uses the feminine in a derogatory fashion which is just so gross that they didn't think they had to make a forum rule for it.

Guys seriously, take it somewhere else. I’d like to avoid reporting posts to the moderators but this is getting ridiculous.

While you're at it have them attend to that Daniel Andrew cat. They'll be right on it.

huh....

Anyway, Matt, do you have any service records form before your ownership? Original clutch? Brakes?

Seems as though the SC was put in very early in the car's life, which I'd view as a good thing. Any problems should have appeared long ago.

Good luck. Your price seems very reasonable.

I have most of the records from the second (previous) owner, and a few records from the original owner including a summary sheet for the TPC kit. I believe it to be the original clutch, because I've seen them go over 100k in the 986. No signs of wear like a super heavy pedal or high release point, and zero slipping. Brakes are great and assumed original, I didn't look at pad thickness but there is no noise, vibration, pulling, and the pedal is nice and firm. Because this car was used for nice day backroad driving it hasn't had the abuse that a daily driver would endure.

Supercharger was installed in 2001, there's a little emblem in the car noting that. I agree that if there was an issue with the kit, it would be obvious by now.
