Default My New To Me Almost New 2008 GT3

I recently sold my 997S and was planning on ordering and buying a 2010 GT3. I started getting cold feet about spending that much money and found this car over on 6SPD in the autos for sale section. It was private party but I did run the sale through a dealer local to the car and was able to get CPO on the car. My warranty will run through December 8, 2013.

The seller agreed to take $85,000 for the car but by the time I got through the dealer it was about $88,900 this included CPO, dealer fees, 2 year service etc. It was about $45,000 less than the 2010 I was going to get. I am real happy with it.

That's a great deal - it's less than the MSRP of a Cayman S I ran through the Porsche Configurator.

Congratulations, again.

Sounds like a great deal for an almost new 2008. What are the specs?

Is it leather interior?

It looks immaculate.

Where did you buy it (What area?))

It is almost a no option car under $111,000 retail new. The only options are Meteor Gray, Xenons, Floormats & XPA Steering Wheel. The car was in Tennessee. I am having a clear bra installed tomorrow and I will definitely get it out and drive it.
