12 yrs old and they were willing (and allowed to??) CPO it? .... How many miles does it have on it?

.... I did not think it was even possible, based on years, where Porsche would CPO a 12-13 yr old car.

congrats Btw. You will love it.

Congratulations. My 2010 GT3 also had CPO coverage. Turns I out I didn't need it!

They said they could do it provided they had it submitted by years end...so 12 years must be the cut off? No idea.
I just have a four page report with a Porsche APPROVED sticker on it. They have a folder full of reports and photos they submitted to Porsche.
The car has 32,000 miles on it.

Can not wait to drive it some day! It snowed today....might be a long winter for me.

Porsche CPO is great! 997.1 is an awesome ride.

HA snow is Green Bay --- its 73 degrees here in NJ! (but pouring).

Been amazingly busy the past two weeks.
Today I finally had a moment to go over the car in detail.

I was told the coolant lines were not addressed. I was planning on having the engine pulled and the lines welded at some point next year.

It is hard to see, and I could only really get one photo that works...but...are these welded already?
