Looking for speed yellow 996 turbo.

[Yell_M3]

Anyone know of one for sale?

Looking for 2004 ish, <55k miles, Tip, no sports seats, SatNav.

Can't seem to find anything anywhere!

[monthefish]

Think I've only ever seen 1 SY turbo in all my time. Quite rare I think, and with those specific requirements you might be waiting a while for that specific car to come up.

Would a different colour car + wrap be an option in this instance?

[Yell_M3]

No to wrap. Would consider another interesting colour. Just not interested in boring silver and black etc. But again, can't really see anything out there.

The tip, comfort seats, I won't compromise on.

Press car 911 HUL was yellow. Not sure on the spec though.

Wait for one, had a manual car some years ago, with a 'green' interior and yellow stitching, sounds yuk but looked the dogs, loved that car

durham iirc, manual i think though. there was also a private sale on the isle of man last year in speed yellow

IOM car was reduced quite alot and then sold. Still on classifieds I think.
There are relatively few coloured cars, they're all black, silver and grey. There have been a couple of red ones and a couple in Lapis. There is that Riviera blue tip still for sale on autotrader I think.

fairly easy to swap sports seats for comfort I would have thought.

not if he buys one with a green interior it won't be

[DJFish]

Recently read an article in a Ferrari owners club mag with pie charts showing the colour splits for each model year.
Naturally they were mostly red.

I'd be interested to see how many 996s of each colour were made.
I suspect many of them were silver (actually the fastest colour) so that might make your search a bit more tricky.

Good luck though!

It is clear you are man of impeccable taste

Not many speed yellow 996/997 Turbos as it takes large man parts , to order from new as many purchasers are worried about residuals , and to be honest it's not a car for parking in the office car park .

Personally I chose a SY with ceramics black interior, carbon pack and MANUAL its a peach which I will drive until the old people's home refuse me a parking space, so that is another one not on the market

If you can extend your budget and buy a 993 turbo there is a SY 993 turbo for sale in the classified.

If you mean this one - I do, as ashway said RPR626 had it for sale last year; I bought it in the May



Wouldn't have been the car for you, no Tip or SY, one-off colour apparently called Summer Sunflower yellow

cheers
