Will post "mandatory" photo as soon as it dries up here in the South and I get my 2010 Carrera detailed but thought I'd ask how good a deal this was.

13.5k miles
6sp, Metallic Silver/Black, NAV, Bose
PPI'd clean, spotless in/out; clean Carfax
OTD $41.5k

This was a huge leap from my 2001 986S and recent 2104 370Z Roadster.

Thanks in advance guys.

Holy cow. Did you show up with a can of kerosene & pack of matches and threaten to torch the joint unless you got a fantastic deal? Congrats and pics or it didn't happen.

Best price I've heard of for a 997.2, especially with so few miles

And a 6sp coupe in silver/black. Smart buy. That car will take care of you for a very, very long time. Good job fins!
