I like it when I see unique P-Car colors like yours. Very nice! I've always been a black or red sports car guy over the years but I really like that blue.

Thanks, I've always loved blue sports cars, but I've owned black and gray. I finally have the color I want and am looking to keep it a long, long time.

Beautiful car! I too am looking at an 09 C2 cab in CA (not S) - about 20k miles, PDK, similar options to rajtw. Based on his 65k purchase price, what do you guys think would be a fair price for basically the same car in non-S?

My "guess" on a similarly equipped base Carrera Cab would be in the $56K to $58K range.

First congrats on only $6k over three years of Porsche depreciation. Love the color combo. There's one up here with the same combo except non-s, smaller wheels and cpo asking $74k that I thought of. Convertible-check, wife can drive-check, no nav? on a $74k car? At the price you got it I might justify installing the factory nav. I ended up getting a bare bones manual 06 C2 for $37k with cpo.

Daddyscar - I am in Marin and considering that cab, hence my question a few posts above re: if rajtw paid 65k for an otherwise identical C2S with 24k miles, what does that imply for fair market value of an otherwise identical C2 with 19.6k miles? Although noting that, FWIW, rajtw is non-CPO and the one here is CPO.

It's a beauty. I have the identical "launch" car. From the beginning I noticed stains appearing on the front seats. Several months ago I brought them to the attention of my Porsche service person. After he spoke to the PCNA area rep. they decided to recover the seats. I was told that the problem was that the dye from the seats was bleeding through the ventilation holes. After waiting several months for the replacements from Germany, a set of black covers arrived instead of gray. Now Porsche tells me they have changed their minds and will not replace them.
Check your seats and let me know if you notice any stains. This problem is not unique to my car. There are similar reports on 09 and later ventilated seats on several websites.

i remember those launch cars - our dealor had one. i love the aqua blue.

do the sport chrono from them and get the paddle shifting sport design steering wheel - your current one dosen't have any multi functions so i understand easy swap.
