What are yours and other thoughts on percentages that have the three keys, manuals, gloves and window sticker.
Would it be as high as 15%?

Good to know!

I did not get the original window sticker. My car was a "tourist delivery" car so that probably explains why it wasn't available. Either that or the original owner didn't want his wife to see it, $145k was a lot of money in 2003. Because of tourist delivery I also have an unopened shrink wrapped Euro first aid kit and warning triangles. I have the original air compressor and the tool roll with the bag of gloves, too.

I guess you aren’t familiar with government contractors. Also I’m just joking… sort of.

I lived in the DC area my whole life and just left a few years ago.

The Valet key, if correct, opens the door lock and starts the car. Look very closely at the valet key, there is a very small cover cap for the RFID chip (pill). I use my valet key every once in awhile. It works just like the normal key.

I have the center console delete and it's amazing how much more leg room it offers! I'm 6'1" and my knees don't hit the center console anymore. I relocated the heated seat buttons to the arm rest area. It also really cleans up the dash and provides a more classic look/feel to it. Highly recommend doing it!

I was mistaken, I do have the valet key

Here's some more stuff that came with my car. Not a big deal but it's cool that it survived 20+ years.

Umbrella sweet!


l can't remember who resurrected the old umbrella thread on here a couple years ago, but it cost me $100, fell victim to the must have never use umbrella.

Was this always a Dealer accessory or did it ever come with a certain option package?
I never could find the answer to that, and I have a lot of 2003 Carrera dealer catalogs.

That's an expensive first aid kit and warning triangle.

I couldn't find an umbrella in any of my 1998 brochures either.
