thanks for the feedback, yeah I understand talking price is kind of a bummer as there is always a smart *** who made a better deal

Anyways this looks like a great car and with such low miles you are in the sweet spot for resale in a couple of years without problems.

I would have preferred a manual transmission, but the car was so good otherwise that I decided to overlook that. The condition and options are what sold me on this particular car. Plus, I haven't yet figured out how to custom order a used car.

To be honest, it's really pretty nice with the Tiptronic.

Very nice, looks brand new and the interior appears plush. You're right, someone will always chime in that you paid too much...if you're happy then you did well. I'm also partial to the 99s MY, glad you started piling on the miles, welcome.

Congratulations on the new car - it looks great. I have a 99 Cab/Tip in Mirage with Savanah interior. I love the colour as you don't see it very often. Mine was a low mileage car as well - even though I had twice as many miles as you.
The car has been trouble free.
Enjoy your new ride.

Congratulations on a great looking Porsche. The important part is that you are comfortable with what you paid. The low miles on your car are a nice bonus. I have owned both tiptronics and sticks and enjoyed them both. I am a huge fan of the aerokit. Get out there and meet some of the local Porsche guys and gals as well. Enjoy your new Porsche in good health and welcome.
