Congratulations.

I just saw that 997 on Autotrader. Looks like a nice one.

How was Stevinson to deal with? I nearly bought one
from them earlier this year. Couldn't get together on price.

Is it really that blue in person? Or does it photograph lighter than it really is? My cocoa interior looks pretty light in pictures, but looks like dark chocolate (Almost black) in reality.

Have you thought of adding a painted rear center console? I think the blue & silver would really look sharp.

Either way, looks great!

Looks great - enjoy. My 996 was polar silver/metropole blue - really liked the color combo.

Like your cocoa interior, sea blue looks darker in person. Don't have the car yet but a body color center console would look sharp and tie in with the backs of the sport seats.

I found it on cars.com. This dealer was Porsche of Colorado Springs. Stevinson is in Littleton, Co. Porsche of Colorado Springs was excellent to deal with. The Internet Sales Manager, Joe Riddle, was a straight-shooter, knowledgeable and didn't waste my time. He continues to be very helpful even after the sale. Their communication with overnighting paperwork has been quick and professional.

Johnsweet looking car! I love the Sea Blue interiors in the 997. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of them around. Enjoy!
