Default Finally! I found my unicorn! New owner in NJ!

And so after countless nights of ipadding, looking for a truly special 996 Turbo I have now joined the ranks of ownership. 2 years of non stop searching.

I bought a 2002 Speed Yellow/black supple leather with 9,855 miles! 6 speed, 100% stock, all leather interior, Yellow belts and simply perfect!

I had it PPI'd this afternoon by Mckenna Porsche and they were amazed at how new ths car was. In California and coming to NJ!

As in the full leather option from the factory (I think it may have been called the large leather option)?

Yes, dashboard as well. It's getting super hard to find ultra low mileage, stock 911 Turbos.

Didn't know that, the ad said "all leather" but what do I know. Only Porsche I've ever owned was a 944 Turbo about 8 years ago. I'm getting very excited.

Standard leather was the dash, seats, steering wheel, center console lid, shifter boot, and door panels.
