Tetsuo - Congrats and welcome for the Forum. Nice looking P-car. If I recall correctly, keys are about $125 and the dealer has to program them. Brandywine Porsche has decent prices too. Sorry, but I can't help with the other questions. BTW, you might want to get clear side markers to get rid of the "pumpkin look", only $30 to $35.
