All this 40th talk makes me wonder whatever happened to that highly suspect 40th that kept showing up a few years ago...


Screw the 996s, there is an e30ix Touring up!!! Been after the wife to replace her e90xi, how do you think it would go if it disappeared and was replaced by this only for me to drive it all the time? :lol:

And when is a certain red Targa gonna makes it's way to BaT? I'm sure it's sale price should easily cover the cost of 30 replacement Miata motors and 150 Miata rollers to rotate them through.

Too bad about the interior :(

Love the outer color, but the tan is terrible IMHO and while that wood looks good in a Jag (probably because it was real wood) I just find it cheap and cheesy looking in the 996 :(

Looks like a very nice option for someone not as opinionated about the colors though. Solid history and besides not being driven looks well cared for.

I am tempted to take the "this is highly optioned" (it is) people to task by posting my sticker which has another $5k worth of leather options :lol:

I'm not a fan of the interior either. Strong bidding so far though.
