I'm not saying that I wouldn't choose white all over again, but a car just like this one (sans GT2 seats) is what finally got me off my *** to move up from a 996. Great price for a gorgeous car; might have been mine if you had decided to sell it last year.

IMO, the carbon sills and painted console make up for the chrono. Good luck with the sale.

Sorry about the chrono ... I agree the carbon plg + doorsills add just the right touch to the interior ...

surprised you didn't mention the speed yellow seatbelts!

Hope this sells quickly so I can stop fantasizing about owning a Cobalt GT3.

Btw, the Carlsen car is similarly equipped; might not have the sport chrono. It's been on the lot for over 18 months...I think the price is over 100k

Yep its almost identical, my ctr console is painted, they have carbon, and it does not seem to have SC ... and its got about 1600mi more on the odo ...

if I thought I could get more for mine I would ... I think 103k even for CPO is dreaming ...

Yup! over 1/2 of the miles on the car were in europe:

Factory -> Paris
Paris -> Nice
Nice -> Frankfurt
Frankfurt->Nordschleife, then 3 days of lapping & Manthey day (avatar)
Ring ->Factory and onto the boat.

I think that was about 24xx as I recall...

L.A -> S.F

the remainder of miles are street/freeway in N.Ca + 1 day @ Infinieon

I should have leased it ... I would probably have put 30k miles on it instead
of 51xx!

1 yes, larry's car is better buy.
2 park it over my house your wife wont know.
3 moneywise, you are a cpa, you should be able to hide that from IRS and WIFE.

sell your lange, that ought to be enough to buy the car.
