That one also caught my eye, nicely optioned 2010 C4S cabio, great price ($52k), low mileage (28.3k), $152k MSRP. However, if you look at the dealer-posted carfax, there was a "Accident reported Vehicle involved in a rear-end collision Involving right rear impact with another motor vehicle Moderate damage reported" in its history. But if you're into cocoa ...
You can access a more but still not very useful detailed repair report via the "trueframereport" link at the end of the carfax.
It says left and right rear panel replaced, but nothing about the bumper. Could be plausible, though. Might have been hit in the side shoving it into something on the other side.

It would be worth a look if you really wanted that combo, which I've never seen before. The pictures look like a good repair job. A good inspection and PPI would be a good idea. Such a high MSRP too of 152K, almost GT3 price.

Porsche Racing Green + cocoa is beautiful. However that looks like black. Weird.
Always bummed most cars PRG cars came with sand beige. Too bad it's a cabriolet.
they really picked a few choice options to get to a $152K 911 considering it has no Powerkit, PDK or PSE!

All that leather adds up! I've seen lots of variations in coca leather. Some is more dark that others and grainy. This does look nice. Plus its hard to photograph properly, unless you have the right filters and know what you are doing. And the type of light as well.

The lighter greens are Forest Green (tannengruen) and Rain Forest Green.
The also is "Porsche Racing Green", dark olive green and dark teal green.
I have 69 different greens that Porsche used in my list

Cocoa is nice because they match all the plastics as well. Cocoa + Macadamia is sharp.

'07 MT turbo black/black $65k 42k miles at Carmax
Wonder if it had a cat bypass or something as it failed emissions twice over a couple of days before passing a day later.

I took the 4S out for a rainy day drive and I was hitting corners at speeds that I could probably technically handle in the Carrera but with the additional aero and clawing through the corners, it was pretty incredible and I felt like I was driving a Subaru STI (I know, sacrilege, but that is what it reminded me of driving). A E46 M3 was being aggressive so on a long sweeping ramp merging onto 540, I gunned it. He did not dare try to follow.
Corner entry errors were easily corrected with mid-corner adjustments and more throttle applied. I'm sure it has its limits, but I have to grow the ***** to find the limit on the forest roads around my house. Add to the fact that the PDK makes sure you are in the right gear.
The Carrera steering feels noticeably lighter and is much more of a traditional sports car driving experience. Enter a sharp corner in a low gear and get on the gas and feel that tail wag! It reminds me more of my RX-7. You have to think more in the Carrera: Pick your gear, brake, turn, accelerate. The 4S is: Enter as fast as you dare, brake as late as you dare, stay on the gas, and give it more gas right before the usual apex.
I still have more "experimenting" to do. I did my commute to work yesterday in the 4S and today in the Carrera. That was almost identical except the 4S feels heavier. You only notice the difference when pushing it.
I have tracked neither car so I can't speak to that. If you are into autocrossing, 2WD is the way to go as you can rotate the car with your right foot and it is lighter. The 4S would do better on an open track.
