The car did have some issues:
Straight Pipe Exhaust, too loud!!( In the marker for OEM Exhaust if you know anyone selling theirs)
Couple of plastic Trim Pieces missing ($500 to replace)
The car is a Clean Title with prior damage reported on the Carfax.
1st accident was when it struck a Deer on the Road ( pictures were available of the accident). The only damage was to right side bumper, fender, headlight.
2nd was when the owner slid out to a grassy area that just caused damage to one or 2 wheels and front Bumper.
The day it was posted I went and picked up the car and put down a deposit, Drove the Car home (100 miles), Did a PPI the next morning at our local Porsche Independent and the Car Checked out besides the issues mentioned above. It also had maintenance records going back to when it was new. a lot of Maintenance work was also done less than 3000 miles ago.
I am happy and plan on taking better care of it than the previous owner.

I think you overlooked something. I commented regarding a 997.2 PDK
Here is another sweet car. Carfax shows it was for sale about a month ago at an Audi dealership in IN, did anyone see it there and what it was up for? I imagine it was undervalued and this dealer scooped it up.
Anyway, yes it is a Tip, but PTS, full two tone leather interior, 3 owners all serviced at the selling dealership right on the Carfax, I even find the supple leather appropriate for this build and I normally hate it: https://cars.abreumotors.com/vehicle...88887?Framed=1
Asking $49.9 on Ebay
I would say that price is in the ballpark for the right buyer. Perhaps a bit high, but the interior options are interesting and I've never seen a two tone interior with the wood trim. Whoever ordered it really liked the wood options.

I agree, generally the wood and supple leather comes off as a bit "farty" on a 911, but perhaps it is the two tone that makes it look right on this one.
Getting a PPI done on this monday. Hope everything checks out. Will be my first 911. Just sold a 2011 Cayman last week and have been looking for a C2S since then.
What do you think about the Mileage? this car has 79k. Any major maintenance issues that will come up soon?
I am sorry but no possible way that is real. I have seen a fair number of 991.1S with ~60-80k miles in the mid $50's even, but $43.5, I don't see it. There are only three 991's under $50k in the whole country.
Just a heads up on this car. I looked at it last weekend. The interior seems real clean. However, the front bumper has a vertical crease dead center and slight spider-webbing above it on the bumper. It was also missing the front bumper tow hook cover.
