At Carmax too, is this a PTS car?

Not PTS. This color was talked about a couple weeks ago. Forgot the name already.

It's Murano Green. That car used to belong to Volnomad. He said the seats have been changed out from when he had the car.

If I were in the market I'd be planning a road trip. Cool color, perfect options, right miles.

Yes it is PTS. That was never a standard or optional color for a 997.

i remember that very car for sale when i was looking a couple years ago, yes, murano green, the most non green green i have ever seen, must look different in person, but very cool, i ended up with a very similar macadamia green... seems like a decent price...when will these bottom out and start back up...same price now for an 'excellent' g model...though worlds apart cars...

Yep, it's my Murano Green 911 S. But, something is wrong. The seats with matching contrast stitching have been replaced. No idea why, but in my view, it ruins the car. It had a beautiful, pristine interior with many cosmetic options.

The car looks blue-green in person, depending on the light, but more blue in many photos for some reason. The photo I posted is fairly close. The interior features full leather, contrast stitching, aluminum package including shifter, vent slats, and pedals, silver seat belts, and stainless steel illuminated door sills. The outside has sport design wheels, Porsche logo in matching paint, headlight washers in matching paint, and solid red tail light covers. It is a beautiful car that I should have held onto.

Two weeks after I bought it, a floor tile flew out of a pick-up at 70mph and hit the front bumper on the driver side. I had to have it painted to remove the scratches. No other body work during my term of ownership from 8k to 20k miles.

Great looking car. Would have liked to have seen those original interior pics. In any event, that's a great deal. CarMax doesn't realize what a gem they have in that car.

Here's an interior photo before the seats were replaced by someone after I sold it.

And, if you search for Murano Green on this forum you will find all my related posts on this car.
