Zookie, what options are listed on your option sticker? Do you have the original invoice?

It probably means that you have something from the Exclusive Option list or a particular selection from the personalization selection. I guess you could order a Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche. The option(s) in question may be listed on the certificate.

Do you have custom colored stitching on the seats and interior leathers?

Zookie, the "options" listed in the right hand column of your link do not appear to be options. I could be wrong, but the list looks like standard ammenities for for a C4S. Is there a list of options posted in your blog that I don't see? Can you post the option codes from the sticker under the front bonnet or the sticker on the inside front cover of your Maintenance Manual?

DUHH! I didn't scroll down enough!

There has got to be some special option(s) in your car that is not from the normal option list. Probably only you can determine what that option or upgrade is.

Ok figured it out... spoke to my Sales Rep at Porsche, he told me All Z Options are Custom Options... I have the "CPZ - Thicker Steering Wheel".... so the Z0997 shows that i have a Custom Tailoring Option in my car which is the CPZ Wheel... thanks for the help guys

I want one of those, but it kills me to pay around $1K for a thicker wheel.

meh i would'nt know....

my Service Rep told me its very very very rare option coz i kept on bugging him about it... Mine was Replaced due to the "Leather Discolouring"... It took about a Year for the Replacement to be "Custom Made" and come in... They said they have only seen 3-4 cars ordered with this option at their Dealership
