Is it safe to assume that the quantity of 996's are small in the islands much less 996 rollers?
I've only seen one roller in the 3 years that I've watched CL. But, several come and go then reappear telling be they are not of interest to many people...They sit on the market for a long time and can be had for under 20K. One has a new replacement motor and has been Porsche serviced for it's entire life. I'd buy it if I had the "spare" cash.
And there's this beauty...https://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/cto ... 49677.html

I haven't logged on in months, and come back to find this gem.

Ahh, thing of beauty right there. Not the engine grenading, but the hilarity that ensued.!!!!

The guy is looking for rollers. I would expect a tranny swap (Slakker jokes aside) would be in the realm of his abilities...

Big job that would be! Meaning the actual work done to a car only. I wonder how old Slak dude is doing? Last I heard was he had a turbo track weapon that broke a front end piece and jumped a tire wall! I might pm him.

Is it? I thought it was just replacing the transmission, ECU, and some interior bits.

Last I talked to Slak, he was going through a "life change" and was selling everything to get out of debt...Dave Ramsey is guiding him through a new course.
