The seller indicates the airbag warning light is present for the passenger seat.
Power is sent to all four wheels from a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter Mezger flat-six engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.

Thanks for clearing that up @COYS91

Bid in the amount of $42,000
@101oct doesn’t seem very relevant at the moment.
folks the current bid is $40,250, additonal bids have come in since this transpired, hope there is no confusion
So as I read the comments. The bid was 30k after the "mistake bid" of 35k?
Bid in the amount of $40,250
Bid in the amount of $40,000
So is the bid $30k or $35k? The auction is showing 35 so something needs to be corrected.
How difficult/costly to return the car to AWD? Are all the parts to convert back to AWD included in the sale?
I'm still curious how it's been 5 days have gone by without the airbox questions being addressed. I have 2 996 911 (x50 & GT2) and I never once thought you could drive these cars without an airbox of some sort.
+1 on the RWD conversion question. Was a kit used or were parts just removed? We also never got a reply regarding the air box situation. Any info?
The bid is 30K
@SealofStuttgart That is a new driving video and new walk around video with cold start. We just took the driving video yesterday the car drives great.
I bided by mistake Pcar Market called me I told them it was a mistake. They are aware of it.
@AceMotorworks That video is from old listing with performance parts. I feel as if you should of kept everything on the vehicle, the pss9s are still on correct? can you upload a video of the car running and what is not currently working such as- volume, spoiler- moon roof work? a/c work? the tires are from 2017- so will need tires. are the performance parts now on another project car of yours? @tcmiami that is weird that you bid 30k then 35 right after. is that market manipulation? friend of a friend trying to get the price higher than BAT? lol
Which of the following is still installed?
Modifications are said to include K24 turbochargers, high-performance intercoolers, Markski Tuning ECU software, markski y pipe, methanol injection, Bilstein coilovers, revised bodywork, a Sachs clutch, and high-capacity fuel pumps and injectors
If not installed are these still available?
@AceMotorworks that’s very useful information. Was a RWD conversion kit used or were the front diff, 1/2 shafts, etc just removed? Are the original parts included? Was an LSD added? Thanks!
Additional content has been added to the gallery for this listing.
@Skoomar the car is RWD. The spoiler is not fully functional. There is a small tear in the drivers seat along with the lower console missing right before the shifter. The original radio has been installed but it seems to not have any volume working. The car has bose speakers but does not have a subwoofer. Driving video is attached and will upload paint meter and date code of tires as well. More then welcome to get a pre purchase inspection before auction closes at a local shop.

Any history of the coolant pipes being pinned or welded?
Bid in the amount of $35,000
Bid in the amount of $30,000
Thanks for the listing, this looks like just what I'm after. It presents much better than when it was listed last year, well done on that, but the listing is light on key details that will help me determine value and my maximum bid.
The previous listing describes the car as having been converted to RWD, with a Wavetrac LSD installed but this listing describes the car as AWD.
Could you please confirm the current specification of the car. Is it currently AWD or RWD? Is the Wavetrac still installed?
Is the spoiler still hydraulic or electric converted? Is it fully functional?
What's the rest of the interior condition? Picture 54 shows the rear strut top covers missing. The previous listing also shows missing trim around the shifter where the lower console has been removed, has that been addressed? Please provide additional information about the state of the interior trim, detailing any wear, damage, or loose trim (including the seats, seat backs, dash, headliner, carpet and door panels).
Is the Bose subwoofer still present? Are the stereo and climate control systems fully functional?
Please also provide paint meter readings, plus cold start and driving videos, as well as the date code on the tires and their brand / condition.
Thanks

lol Wi-Fi bluetooth airbox
Also interested in the airbox situation. Removed for photos perhaps?
@ArtVandelay no we did not buy this from the bring a trailer auction. The car still includes larger K24 turbochargers, a revised exhaust system, and special ECU tuning, also been fitted with upgraded intercoolers, a Radium Engineering fuel surge tank, and a Bilstein coilover suspension.
The engine is missing the airbox. How is this working out?
I own a 30k mile 2004 X50, driving that car brings a smile to my face EVERY time! Power comes in bunches and the sound is amazing. Good luck with the sale! Buyers: if you have never driven or owned a 996 turbo the X50 is the one you want to drive (and own). Yes I am biased but also speaking from experience of ownership of 4 911 turbo variants including 991.2 turbo S.
Bid in the amount of $777
Hello @AceMotorworks: I wasn't aware of the previous auction & you buying it referred below... So it previously had mods, and you have returned to original condition? No mods then? You only buy to correct and resell? Thanks in advance.
It does not still have the performance exhaust. This car has cleaned up tremendously. Performance parts from the previous parts have been removed. We do not have any of those parts.
all performance parts from previous seller have been removed?
Hello,
curious to why you are selling it after buying from BAT few months ago. does it still have the performance exhaust? looks a lot cleaner!
