It's like a $110K build for what it's worth.

From the pics, I can see no SC or PSE but I do see ventilated seats and a sunroof.

In some ways, nice to see the higher mile 991's - good to think that these are fairly reliable and that they can be daily driven if desired!

Those are 14-way seats. You can see the seat controls in phone #4. No shots of the door so I can't see the memory buttons. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a Premium Plus package - Entry and Drive is included in that, and not usually ordered alone. I'm not even 100% sure you could order than ala carte, and of course the configurator has changed since then. I can also see headlight washer nozzles, and those are part of PDLS (included in Premium / Premium Plus).

The rear bumper appears to have the indents for the ultrasonic parking sensors.

Sport Chrono is definitely not present.

That car is nothing special. A Craigslist ad at that. What's the big deal with it? How about all the other nice ones out there?

A comparison. Lower miles, $10K higher MSRP, and CPO.

Clean CarFax and Porsche serviced.

Which would you pick?

Called for more pics, the seats are worth investigating, can't decide if it's damage or not on the seating areas, bolster does show some wear..

I don't think anyone was enthused about that car. Really, that very brief discussion (since when is a few short back-and-forth comments a "big deal"?) was that Hurricane's comment was correct - it's hard to evaluate an ad like that without the VIN, build sticker, or other concrete source for options. You end up speculating based on what you can see in the photos.

I do know that. I'm within $2K of the MSRP trust me.

We have a Craigslist car, NO VIN, NO verified seller, and not even a great deal. Not really HFS material here and not what put us on the map here.

Just saying ....
