Default So I took some advice and took the plunge
looked at a number of 997.1 and .2’s. A turbo most recently. Found a 12 4S in the area and bought it today. DPK. 37k miles. 58k$ looks and drives like new. Fit the bill. Bought a 4 yr extended warranty. Looking forward to having some fun transport in FL. Thanks for the help to all over the last couple months and for all the other posts I read but never posted in. Now my 928 has a garage buddy.

Nice. Congrats. Very rare DPK option, so unfortunately you can't put miles on it, as it'll be a collector's item!

Congrats! Since nobody has mentioned it, yet, I’ll suggest clear side markers although it does currently matches your 928 with amber lights.

Those wheels look good on there. I'd keep the orange side markers for a bit of vintage throwback flair, personally.

Congratulations, and beautiful pair. From another 928 & 997 owner, they're both wonderful and unique models - you'll have a blast.
