Default Finally found one for me

I have been searching for a few months to find my car. I started looking at 2001 986s then bumped to a 2003 S because i liked the redesign. I then made the mistake of driving a 2005 Base 3 weeks ago. I was smitten with the 987.

After an extensive search I bought a 2005 Lapis Blue with black base model. It has 28,000, a brand new motor installed by flat 6 innovations (previous motor had IMS failure). I pick it up next week.

Options are
18" wheels
Litronics
Auto Climate
Sound package
Manual transmission

The car an aftermarket Alpine stereo and Polk speakers. I would be making this change so this is just gravy for me.

The only thing wrong with the car is that it was used in the city so the front and rear bumpers have scuffs on them, I am going to be getting that fixed soon. Here is the one picture I have so far, I will post more when I pick it up.

I am glad to be a Porsche Owner again
