Thanks. I am looking for a driver. Dark interiors, sport buckets and sunroof delete are preferred. Also any GT2 tributes would work

 

Another trip to Santa Monica might be in order:

Met with Ivan regarding some real estate a few weeks back and I got turned on to this. Looks like what you're talking about. Amazing car.

That white Porsche is about $40-45K too much; it's been sitting for many, many months. There have been a couple of reasonably priced, publically advertised 993TTs in the last two years.

This one sold for close to $90K in March (it was advertised for a year and the price was dropped from $140K to $92K during that period.

This one has been on the market for many, many months, and it is the most reasonably priced, publically advertised one I have seen that is currently available.

A low miles (36K), very reasonably priced ($100K) 993TT came on the market back in March.

1996 Porsche 911 | Gateway Classic Cars | 1174

It was swooped up by a dealer within a week, and the dealer is asking an additional $30K for it (was an additional $40K), but he did not get it in the last two months.

I hope that helps. I know the market, and I can point you in the right direction; you don't have to pay me anything cause I am not a profiteer.

Good luck on finding your dream 993TT.

PS . . . BHCC sold this a couple months back in the $90K range, but the 993TT sold at Cars Dawydiak (first link above) was a better buy to me.

Care to share some insight on them?

I've been eyeing a couple of their cars

 

My impression of BHCC is that the company CAN be fair. I have spoken to the company about a few of the cars that they have gotten in, but I have never purchased a car from them. BHCC seems to use key-word, targeted search advertising, like GOOGLE, to target potential sellers. Next time you're on GMAIL, check to see if you have any SPAM from Alex Manos.

BHHC, like Gullwing and Gateway for example, are "no-hassle" buy/consignment type operations. In essence, these companies have a reputation for buying "driver" cars from sellers at a fair, reasonable price. These operations have CASH and they can close deals quickly for sellers looking to get rid of their cars quickly at a fair, reasonable price (usually 25-30% less than FMV or some recognized measure like Hagerty, KBB . . . Whatever price point it can use to justify the offered purchase price to the seller). Other dealers/profiteers focus on only buying "blue chip" exotics, let them sit in their warehouses, and hope that they can justify their mark-up price to a future buyer. Not to say that BHHC would turn away a "blue chip" car if the seller's price was fair and reasonable.

BHCC advertisements are usually short, and leave out a lot of relevant information a potential buyer would want. Many times it's because the vehicle has limited to no maintenance or service history. Because of this, BHCC usually can source these cars at a better price. No matter where you buy from, make sure you ALWAYS get a PPI. This is especially true if you are buying from BHCC and similar dealers/profiteers because their offerings may seem like "deals", but after a PPI, that deal doesn't seem like quite a deal. For example, you could buy a driver 1991 Testarossa (60K miles) for $75K. However, when you get it, you may have to do the following: (1) engine-out service; (2) electric box; (3) transmission rebuild; (4) differential swap; (5) fuel pumps; (6) O2 sensors; and (7) clutch, brakes, tires, on and on. This service work, assuming you are lucky/blessed/fortunate enough to find a good shop, could cost you $30K plus the time and hassle. In this case, you are better off buying the freshly-serviced 1990 Testarossa (45K) Testarossa for a $100K.

Let me know if you want any empirical examples.
