This is a prime example of the 996/997 cost overlap. Check out this Guards Red over Sand Beige 997 Carrera S. Options include 19″ Sport Design Wheels, Colored Crests, 5MM spacers and Sport Chrono. The listing does show an accident, but at this price compromises are expected. Remember the 2007 has the non-serviceable larger single row bearing. Find this 997 Carrera S (WP0AB29977S730174) here in Charlotte NC for $26750.
Carrera “S” will be susceptible to both IMS and bore scoring woes. And neither is addressable without splitting the case. Weiderking ruined an entire generation.
