While Porsche might be the king of à la carte optioning, in the early 2000s they offered a series of packages lumping some desirable extras together. The two most commonly seen are the Technic and Comfort packages, which added things like Bose audio, power-adjustable seats, and xenon lights. But one that is rarely seen is the GT package. Basically, this gave you a turned down GT3; you got M030 suspension, Aerokit, and stainless-steel exhaust tips for a visual approximation of the higher-spec car. Today’s example takes that one step further with also GT3-specification 18″ Sport Design wheels and sport seats. It also has only 34,000 miles and yeah, the IMS was replaced. What’s left to complain about?

Okay, so the rub is obviously the entry price, which admittedly is close to or at Turbo money levels. Would you get a 34k mile Turbo 6-speed with a bunch of recent maintenance and new tires for $43,000? No. And a GT3 in equivalent condition will cost you twice that amount. Yeah, I know it’s not a real GT3, and you’d be right in saying that it’s no where near as collectable. The orange wheels will probably put some people off. But hey – you want a really nice to drive and hard-to-find 911 in great condition with a manual and the heavy-lift stuff taken care of? That’s not going to come a lot cheaper, I think.

that price is pretty insane for a 996 non-turbo. That money will buy you a nice 997.1
Porsche fans quite often are willing to pay for having a uniquely optioned model rather than stepping up to a better chassis but with higher mileage and more common options. There are 3 important factors that could justify asking price for the right buyer 1) rare options, 2) low mileage, 3) long list of service done. IMO,the asking is high but not insane.
Looks like a clown car with the orange wheels and doesn’t have the goods to back it up. Pass.
If I had $43k to spend on a 911 it would be on a 996 40th anniversary, which has real performance upgrades; 345 bhp x51 power kit, locking differential and M030 suspension.
