Default 1997 C4 Cab for sale

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/cto/5764048496.html

1997 Porsche Carerra C4 Cabriolet
Striking color combination of Arctic Silver over Chestnut (dark red), reminiscent of the classic RS60. I looked at many cars for several months before I located this example. It has a clean car fax and has spent nearly its entire life on the West Coast. This car is equipped with the sought after 6 speed. The engine runs beautifully and has no known issues. I have detailed service records going back to 2010.
The interior is absolutely amazing and shows no indication that the car is nearly 20 years old. We entered the car in its first PCA concours event where it took first in class.
The AC blows cold, all of the accessories work. The car is a pleasure to drive top up or down. There are no issues with the top mechanism.
In addition to all of the standard Carerra equipment this car has:
Rear Seat Delete, quite uncommon especially in a Cabriolet.
18” BBS Sport Design wheels.
Short throw shifter.
Becker CDR210 with CD changer and upfit with remote connection for I-pod.
Removable windscreen.
Front bumperets removed and ROW lenses added.
Adjustable ride height front struts.
Gold Koni rear FSD dampers.
K&N air filter.
Top replaced in 2010
Now you ask why am I selling the car. As I say I searched for many months all around the country for this car. I owned an early 911S many years ago and really wanted an updated version of that same car. In reality this car is too refined. It does everything that a modern sports car should. I recently sold my pro-tour car and miss the unrefined brutal power and driving characteristics.
The price for this car is $49,911 . I would be interested in partial trades of up to $15,000 for something unique. Maybe C5 Corvette, Pro Tour project, don’t be afraid to take a shot. Feel free to contact me at 401-219-9580, or oldgoat1969@gmail.com

Additional pictures.
I have many more if anyone is interested.

I will try to add more when I can figure out why they want to load upside down.

I have seen this exact colour combination in a 96 C cab I almost bought. It's striking and if I wasn't in with my C2S I would seriously consider this car. GLWS!
