I just have to recognize @RapidGT again for letting me know about the white GT2 that was listed for sale last November. I am beyond grateful that you reached out to me and I was at the right place at the right time to buy it. This market is crazy!
More than happy to help a fellow enthusiast find a car. Very lucky on that one as I happened to see the car minutes after it was posted. Remembered seeing your WTB post and PM’d you immediately. Thankfully you were online. I suspect GP Motors inquired about the car not too long after you did. That is why it is a good idea to post a WTB post.

I know it is kinda strange. If you get the multifunction wheel or the wheel in CF it would give you the standard steering wheel design instead of the sport one which all GT2’s come standard with. The standard steering wheel design is nowhere near as good as the sport one as it is thinner and doesn’t have the molded grips of the sport wheel. Plus, I don’t like the inconsistent texture on the rim of the CF wheel.
Of all the colors which do you think is most desirable? Seems silver cars aren't near the top even though they look good. I'd say white at the top.
My personal favorites are Carrara White and Speed Yellow. Although I think the GT2 looks good in pretty much every color that was offered (maybe not Nordic Gold or Ruby Red). The one that would command the most if I had to guess non-PTS would be Aqua Blue. There was only one Aqua Blue 997 GT2 made for the North American market. This color wasn’t available for the 2008 model year cars as it was brought in for 2009.
What is going on with the PCM? That's an '08 but someone painted the center console dark? Nothing that can't be replaced, but with the condition of this specimen, mine must be worth $500K!
Given the going prices of quite a few GT2s over here in Europe, you could more than pay for the import fees/taxes and DOTification.

It's OEM leather. This car had a lot of leather upgrades and I believe "CUR PCM Package Leather" is for the leather-wrapped PCM trim.
I'm not sure how much more if any appeal such a low mileage example brings. The recent known market does not seem to support the delta in asking prices between Benjamin’s car and this one:
The dealers are either secretly selling in the $4s, and keeping that info to themselves as we saw Grand Prix pull their last BaT listing for not meeting reserve at $403, and now this car asking $420.
Or, its possible they are wrong and believe the lower mileage deserves such a premium.
Does anyone know if the GP car sold and if so for how much?. Have yet to see any verified sales reported in the $4s.
