I just purchased a 2011 997.2 last month. I did a rev report and it had 260 in range 1 and 10 in range 2 at 1400 hours. Car has full documentation from new. Turns out the dealer replaced high pressure DFI (CPO) under warranty at the exact time. (back calculating from current mileage) Looks like dealer test drive put the numbers on the board. I guess this makes it a genuine Porsche service procedure. It did test the delivery of the new fuel pump!
Of the two 997s I got far enough into the purchase process to get a DME on, both had overrevs occurring in the most recent 30 minutes' operating hours. One case it was Range 0, by someone test driving the car before I bought it, and it was the only overrevs the car had. Range 0 so not terrible.
The other case was Range 3 overrevs, either by a tech, sales guy, or test driver at the dealer.
