I bought 2 years for $7,276.00. One year is $5,288, three years $9,714, four years $11,282 at Porsche West Broward. I don’t know if these prices are set by each dealer or Porsche N.A.

FYI - Those look like fabspeed tips .. if so you can adjust them inward and up to lessen protrusion. Here are mine for ref
Excellent !! Thank you 😃 . I didn’t think about checking to see if they could be moved further in so that they would not stick out as far. I truly appreciate the information.

WoW extremely steep! I am like you though I DRIVE my car year round, do most maintenance myself. So maybe i bite the bullet and pay for extra 2 years $6k and have full 4 years coverage. That will get me around 100k miles

Another wrinkle is if you were planning on keeping it and doing an non-fidelity aftermarket warranty company, just get the CPO extended. Those warranty companies are impossible to deal with.

I don't think I've ever seen a 50th in Black before.

it was the least ordered Color (26%) since it was the one non PTS color. To my eye I like it the best of the 3 color options. The black really highlights the hips, fuchs style wheels with the black inserts, chrome window trim and the black and white pepita seats. Took a long time to find one with 3 pedals but finally did! CPO as well, which I wasnt expecting at all.

congrats, I saw the listing when it first appeared and I knew it would sell fast…. IIRC listed at 169k, correct? I thought that was very reasonable. I have always lusted after the pepita on the 50ths.

correct. 17,500 miles. What i didn't realize at the time was they put in $9,735 of work to
get it to CPO. New tires, belt, windshield, etc plus all services up to date with a 2 year warranty. I am happy with it.

It’s really a great feeling picking up a 10+ year old 911 and knowing it needs absolutely nothing and that you have CPO coverage in case anything unexpected comes up. I picked up a 1.1 GTS coupe 6 months ago and I was more than happy to pay a premium for CPO. If I was still searching when your 50th popped up I would have probably beat you to it.

You're absolutely right about the color combinations, really does look perfect !!
Can you post more photos in natural color, rather than black & white.

@sbarrier I love those wheels! First of all I've always liked their design but IMO if going with black, the polished perimeter helps separate the wheel from the tire to give the wheel the attention it deserves.
