An Early Manual 3.4 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 with an original cable GT3 throttle body. Rolled off the production line in Stuttgart March 1998 BORESCOPE AND FULL HEALTH CHECK included Bodywork in Iconic Silver with the early spec grey interior a sparce cabin as is typical of the early cars without even a glovebox as standard. Covered just 49,500 miles from new the current owner has owned her for approaching 8 years. Always garaged, fastidiously maintained and loved The car came to me bog standard, with limited miles just 32k. Despite being in immaculate condition it was 20years old so i refreshed everything!

Bore scope check complete ** I Hand picked this system, it is not the typical chosen most people go with a deep burble for their 911. For the 996 I always felt what it needs to match it's design is a more modern high pitch howl akin to a pre turbo F1 car. This system delivers in spades, perfectly balanced nice and quiet below 3.5k rpm then comes alive with great enthusiasm above 4k. The car was always a cable throttle body, However while doing the updates to the exhaust system I happened to acquire a genuine early cable GT3 throttle body. The previous owner had attempted to fit to his 911 but never managed to get it to work correctly. He was using too much fuel and had lots of flat spots. On initial install I too experienced the same issues until I forked out for an expensive remap. Night and Day difference once remapped. Additional new/updated components 1. Low temp thermostat 2. New original clutch & Flywheel 3. IMS bearing & rear mainseal 4. Removed rear windscreen wiper 5. Carbon Fibre center console tunnel 6. New Starter motor 7. RSS Engine Mounts I now live in the Canary Islands so she needs to go.
