Looked at my local CL, and was rather disconcerted. Every damn one of them on this search is silver, black, or gray. Not a color in the bunch. Reminds me of that snip in the movie with the clone army. Churning out 911s, silver, silver, silver, silver, black, gray, silver, silver, silver, silver, gray, silver, silver, silver......
I have one of these going to PPI tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Silver wouldn't normally be my first color choice, but I chose it to match my dad's 1975 911S.

Doesn't seem so to me. 2002 model. Not a ME as it came out in 2000, and not a 40AE as they came out in 2004-ish.

You can do better!

Looks like the car has 150K +

Just curious as it has the "911" plaque by the shifter.

You are correct sir, it does seem to have the '40 Jahre' plaque in the center console. VIN shows as a 2002 model. Something fishy.

"The 40th Anniversary 911's distinguishing styling features include GT silver metallic exterior paint color (exclusive to this model and the Carrera GT), front cooling air openings adopted from the 911 Turbo, body color air intake grills, left and right sill trims, an aluminum "911" logo on the engine cover, shot-blasted, polished 18-inch Carrera wheels, and high-gloss polished exhaust tailpipes. A sliding sunroof, bi-xenon headlights with dynamic beam angle control and a headlight cleaning system complete the standard exterior features.

The interior is trimmed in naturally soft dark gray leather. Other interior details include sport seats with two-stage heating; center console, seat backs and dashboard groove trim strips and handbrake lever side covers finished in GT silver metallic; aluminum-finish instrument dial rings; and a numbered "911 40th Anniversary" plaque on the center console."

Aside from the plaque, this car presents none of the '40 Jahre' features mentioned in the release materials. Also, the year is wrong, VIN decodes as a 02 and the 03 was the 40th 911 anniversary.

And the 40th AE was only offered with MT, no tip. Why would anyone add the 40th AE plaque to the interior - strange people out there. BTW, in the US the 40th AE was a 2004 MY.
