I am considering selling my 997TT.
Anyone have access to Black Book prices for a 2007 with 25K miles?
The car has never been driven hard :hahaha:
Thanks!

Q,
I'm sure I don't need to tell you....but, one idea is RUF consignment. They sure have their thumb on the market and access to buyers all over. Granted it wouldn't be like a retail sale but who knows........Carl Janin and all the other guys are the greatest. Carl would be glad to give you some market stats. You are likely to know him, but feel free to tell him I (just tell him "Vintage Porsche Jack") suggested it.

Q,
Don't sell your P-Car man. I think you are just getting bored. I don't want to see the price of the car and what's it worth. How about you just get a flash and an exhaust and it's a new animal. When we meeting up?

Drive one! You'll trade that M in!:thumbsup2:
No, I am going for this:
2008 Pro Charged Z51 Corvette 742whp/664wtq 19.5 city mpg's 60-130 5.88
Plus a few more goodies so I can one up Jason :beer:
:hahaha:
I can't believe the hit I have taken on this car! I most likely will keep it :mad:

Get in line... That's what everybody says! If your car was a tip, I have a buyer for you.
I don't think I can beat the caddy hahah! I would need an ECU tune to do that haha!

The R8 is starting to grow on me. Not sure if it makes for a good DD though :dontknow:

I thought you were working in the ghetto?
An R8 will get you more "attention" there if that's what you're after. :)
I am only down there every so often now; I was playing a temporary role until we found a competent accountant to replace the person there (who couldn't keep the books straight) when we purchased the company. I am usually at the Galleria tower.
I know what you mean.. poor logic on my part haha!! Maybe I should get a GTR instead to drive down there. I am sure no one will notice that fugly car.
:hahaha:
Forgot to mention slow..... when are we racing huh? I would like to claim my first victory :beer:

Crash is the Racer. He'll easily hand you the spanking you're dying for.

silentrun,
how's the ecu flash in your car? any target hp numbers?
Silentrun
12-13-2009, 05:27 PM
The ECU has been modified by the engineers at Sportec. The main engineer is flying back into town next week to dyno tune several cars at BoardWalk, including mine.
Should be around 590+ to the wheels. Last dyno at Jotech was only 476.
I think I will politely bow out on this race :beer:
... I need to send my car to Tim Switzer for an upgrade :driver:

Wastegates. Silentrun how are you planning on jumping 100whp? Is that simply from the addition of the intercooler.

After riding with you that one day, I like the safe feel of my slow tank. I'm selling my suv and going to buy a new DD, still not sure what I will get myself into but it will definitely have 4 doors.

The intercoolers won't raise HP that much, the tuner is back in town and thinks he has an answer about American Gas and this time the car will be dyno-tuned instead of via a computer alone...got my fingers crossed!!!

If I were to get one you could certainly have a ride, but unless I decide my kids don't really need to go to a private college or university I don't se one in my garage too soon.
Tell them to get a scholarship.... Daddy needs a new pair of shoes!:hahaha:

That is some heavy duty equipment. It looks like real quality stuff. I can't wait to see it all in one piece.

Sportec made the VTG turbos and Boardwalk warranties the work...
