It was painted in porsche silver metallic. I would like to have it powder coated but could not beat the convenience of doing everything @ the same time/place.

Wow, that's a helluva deal for great looking work.

I agree on the phone dials. Looks like it rolled off the factory, and with so many of these just beat to high heaven, its great to see something like this!

Now I want to get my Zermatt silver 951 painted! Great deal too. I was quoted $8-9k and 4 months done right at a factory authorized Porsche collision repair center.

Paint looks great but the Turbo badge on the rear looks like it was installed in the wrong place.

Great price if it looks as good in person as it does in pictures. Would have both of mine painted if I could score that sort of deal, instead budgeting a bit more than double to have one of them done.

Just beautiful! I'm also looking for a 944. How do you like it compared to your 911.

It's a complete different car but I like both a lot... The 944 has a lot of body roll is its stock form and I am embracing it as a whole package, no performance mods planned. Will appreciate the way it is and save the 997 for faster driving
