996TT: Who knows the car well?

It's been a few years since I've owned a 996TT and I've forgotten the "ins and outs" of the car. I'm considering purchasing a low mileage '01 model. What do I need to look out for and be aware of?

I should note that I have read the EVO sticky at the top of the forum, including chuck's comments, but was looking for some additional input, if there's more that should be added.

I have one for sale ('02 X50 w/6500miles), but you probably wouldn't consider one from a moderate dbag like myself.

^not yet, i'm having it detailed when I get back to Houston this Friday. That should be done Monday and once the dealership (in Florida) emails me the original spec sheet I'll post up some info and a listing.

Hoss, I had many 996 TT's , best one I had to date was the black 02 996 X50 TT if you recall from the old days. I liked glove-box and revised cup-holders addition on the dash that the 01's didnt come with FYI.

Yep, I remember. I had the same exact car in seal grey.
