The seller wouldnt return my email about a PPI at a dealership. I think I know why now. I offered 24k through ebay with a ton of questions, he countered at 25 with no answers..

Hmm that is interesting. Thanks for linking it. Too much stuff has a '?' mark on it to even spend more than 10k on it.

I think 996 owners are in denial,I've seen plenty at sub 30k with motivated sellers.
