Hey Arling:
How's it going?
What replacement vehicle do you have your eyes on?
I'm curious whether you ever purchased those 19" Type IV AMG wheels/tires? I haven't bought mine yet though may be interested if you'd like to sell yours. Maybe partial trade with mine 18": AMG eexcellent condition (1800 miles) if you don't feel that they may add the additional value to a buyer and want to sell them separately.

Bored with it already, didn't you just pick the car up in January? Why are you selling? It looks like used cars are going in the mid-teens for well optioned cars. What is the Porsche dealer willing to give you?

GT3 NICE!
I really do miss my 520HP 2002 Porsche 996TT, 6 sp I gave up AND with a big financial hit (purchased) for the SL55. I purchased it directly from Nicolas Cage as he was trading it in for a 2003 Murcielago at BH Lambo in late 2002. It had a nice history.
Anyways, the driving experience and fun factor of the 996TT was off the hook. I traded it in for a different experience with the convertible GT cruising Mercedes. Each has their strengths and weaknesses. I'm definitely looking forward to the next iteration of the 911 Turbo (998TT) and if my business investments do great throughout this year, maybe add a 996TT or GT2 to the stable. That would be completely amazing and fortuitous!
Yeah, let me know about the wheels! =)
