    $70k for a 996 GT3 would be a steal. Haven’t seen any in my area under $130k. I’m currently saving up for a 996 carrera 4s, wish me luck

    Loved it! I actually bought my 996.2 6-speed Coupe without knowing a whole lot about 996s.. I've had the car for about a year now and I'm really pleased with my purchase.81 k miles, Great records, IMS clutch RMS already done. I just completely redid the suspension Bilstein B8 H&R lowering springs. Brand new PS2. Complete Aero...The car is absolutely amazing. I do a lot of mountain driving and occasional track days.. feel pretty good about what I ended up with considering my total lack of knowledge. This video would have helped me. I also have a 986s 6-speed that is a fabulous car

    I love my '99 996 gen 1 cabriolet. Triple Basalt Black, Hard back Sport Seats.. 50K engine out w/ LN Ceramic IMS, water pump, AOS, Clutch / pressure plate, new top with hydraulics, etal. Also aero kit that looks awesome. And PSE. I've had it 5 years and now it has 58K on it as of 2023. I've owned several air cooled Porsches over 50 years and this is my favorite as I am 72 and live in the south where it gets really HOT. The A/C is outstanding. Better grab up all the 996's you can get your hands on. I am..

    Nice video! The GT3 looks awesome in that color. I haven’t seen a GT3 under 90k in years. The tiptronic needs more horsepower to be fun. Manual is the best option for all of them. C4S is getting huge attention for the light bar in the rear and that’s commanding the premium among the base models. These cars are great. My close friend has a 996tt and just bought a 996.1 C4 cab.😊

    Great video boys, maybe also consider mentioning maintenance records of previous work done to the 996 such as the the notorious IMS Bearing, it could also effect the appraisal of the car if that is not done or replaced. 🍻

    • @husmanbros

      Yup, IMS is a point on these cars. We made another video “5 things to look for when buying a 996” and talked about it there

      Not all 996 has IMS issues. The Gt3, Gt2 and Turbo models all have the Mezger engine and that thing is bulletproof 👌

    The base M96 engine is pure design trash. Besides all the failures related to bore scouring, IMS, you know Porsche themselves didn't even trust it because they used the Mezger in the Turbo and GT3.

    • @mrbroofing2306
      @mrbroofing2306 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Complete nonsense the M96 is not a trash engine firstly the bore scoring is mainly a problem with the early 997 models not 996, just google early 997 for sale especially in uk and see how many engine re-builds they’ve had.. I’ve seen many 996s with 100000 plus mileage with out any problems even with the ims rms jargon crap .. every Porsche has its Achilles even the modern ones..

      @@mrbroofing2306 You believe what you want but I spoke directly with a long time Porsche engine rebuilder and he stated it was the worst he'd seen. The only people hyping the 996 are owners trying to keep their values up and youtubers trying to make a buck of content. Ther is a reason why it's the lowest priced 911.
