It's a PTS car, albeit in a color certainly not to everyone's taste. As far as the Carfax, I would think the CPO would have been denied by PAG with an issue, so I'm puzzled as well. Does anyone know the issue?
If you haven't ordered a PTS car before, I can tell you from experience it's not always easy to get if you aren't a VIP (I'm 1 for 2 attempts, assuming nothing changes in the next 3 weeks) and it adds months to your wait.

Looks like it was previously being sold by a dealership in Texas with an asking of $123k.

Like most options, I don't believe PTS holds its value in any significant way when it comes to re-sale.

Hey, it's worth what someone is prepared to pay but I don't believe that price starts with a 1. Just my 2c.

Great find there!
Must have cost a lot to ship to Columbus.

I think it depends on the color and "one" person wanting it.
But I assume I'm going to lose a pile of money when I buy a car - I just prefer to get them exactly as I want at this point in my life.
I would be very surprised if it sold for sub $100K.

Yep. and its a manual so that takes out 90% of buyers. Then from that 10% you need to find someone who loves the color. Tough sell and I'm sure that trade was painful!!!

Without a Carfax ding I agree its $100k+. With that ding..........

Cool color in that in-your-face sorta way, but those wheels couldn't be any more wrong for that car unless they were spinners. That color belongs on an RS with gloss black wheels.

Others have alluded to this as well, but with that exterior color, I think there should have been some more creativity on choosing the interior colors, and the wheels. I wouldn't normally want the wood option on the interior, but maybe that and a lighter colored leather package would have looked a lot better. Nifty that it's a manual, though!!

Also - it seems massively overpriced to me....

This car with darker wheels, badging and a black bar would be stunning.

And no SC or PSE.....

Is that Viper Green?

I'm in Columbus and have seen this car in person at Byers in their showroom several times recently. Although I like that color on other 911's, it just doesn't strike a chord with me on a Targa 4S.

Loud splashy colors like Viper Green work best on GT cars or, at least, GTS variants.

Also, I can't stand the 14-way seats. The Sport seats (either 4-way or 18-way) are far more comfortable and better looking too.

No PSE or SC. Who cares what color it is? IMO

Keadog

Yes. Pics look more Signal to me, but they verified Viper when I emailed them.
Agree on no SC. PSE doesn't matter to me but SC can't be retrofitted AFAIK.



It's tough from pics, especially under showroom lighting.

spiderv6

PSE is an easy easy retrofit.

SC - its a manual. On PDK I get it, but on a manual I don't.....just so it will blip the throttle for you? In that case don't get a manual.

(I really don't mean to start another PDK/MT/SC debate).
