If you are really worried about that I would put a small refundable deposit on it. I totally lucked out. I found my car on a crappy web site with 2 pictures that were taken with a potato. Seller got it in a divorce and wasnt getting a good response so she pulled the ad. I took a screen shot of the ad and followed up a week later. Tomorrow seems like a year, I can imagine waiting until Tuesday, but doing your due diligence is a must. Hope you have a mild winter.
I was also wondering how to access build sheet but I don't know how to get the link posted in few threads to work. If someone could help it would be awesome.
I didn't check if it has navigation (rookie smh) but there are 2 buttons right by the screen "map" and "navi"? So is it or isn't equipped with navi....

Sooo it looks like it doesn't. Not that I really need it but it would be nice to have. What's the buttons I mentioned do then??? I tried to search forum but can't find anything relateable.
Sorry for noob questions but i'm just trying to gather as much info before i sign the check.
No navigation. That's option code 670 and would be listed on your build sheet. Normally your press the map button to see a real time map, or the navi button to enter in the address info. The buttons are still there but will not do anything when pressed. Same thing with the tel button - but that ones useless anyway.
Honestly the Porsche Navi is horrible. The entire head unit is horrible. Don't let the lack of built in navi make the purchase decision for you. Garmin units are way better. Or replace the entire radio with a more modern one, linking to your phone or using a better built in one.

I agree. Nav is not worth it. Usually I try to get Nav or else you are stuck with a smaller LCD screen which I hate when listening to music cause it can't display that much information. But thats not the case with Porsche as it keeps the larger screen.
Decided to not go ahead with this car. 2 reasons: mileage and the dealer was kinda shady. They offered me certain amount for my car as a trade in to call me today to change the offer saying after the research they can't offer me as much... I thanked them kindly and hung up.
I'll keep looking around. I think I'm hooked. Should have not test drive that 911 SMH...

I found another one local to me. 06 911 Carrera S with 51k miles. Lapis Blue (not my favorite) with manual transmission and from what I can see has NAVI, BOSE sound system and chrono package. Asking price $39995
If someone would do me a favor and pull the build sheet it would be awesome and much appreciated. Here's the VIN# WP0AB29946S741874
and some pics
what you guys think?

Agree, this looks more like Atlas... $39.9 is not a bad price but you should be able to get a few grand off that I would think, especially this time of year in the Midwest.
The color does not match up? Says Atlas rather than Lapis Blue. Atlas Gray does have somewhat of a blue hue in certain light.
Good catch! I skimmed over that and only looked at the options. I think it actually is the Atlas Grey after looking at some photos of both colors. It appears the car is sitting in a room with lights that are bluish-white in tone which would also impart more a blue tint than outdoor lighting. I guess it would be good to have them look at the paint code inside the gas cap filler door to confirm.
The CarFax report for the car also reports it as Gray. The dealership just appears to have it listed incorrectly... I see it on their website listed as Lapis Blue. (I always love a chance to do a little sleuthing!)
It is advertised as Lapis Blue on the dealer website but I googled "lapis blue 911" and it is clearly different. I checked the Carfax - it states "Grey" as an exterior color and build sheet doesn't lie either. Soooo, yes, it is Atlas Grey Metallic and I think I like it better then Lapis Blue. I will most likely going to see it tomorrow.
