Wonder if they take children, pets, and or wives in trade?

I think it looks like a dog's breakfast – all over the place. If someone took out all the froufrou stuff, pealed off the stickers and covered the silver mirrors, etc., I think the clean blue would be quite decent. The cabin would be tricky. It's a surprise to see it doesn't have the 4.0 livery of red cushions, ***** house roof liner and baboon *****. I'm almost disappointed! That Porsche faux carbon fibre leaves me cold. Sport Chrono smacks of a dealer stuffing the order. I've seen how the camera tends to overemphasis the contrast of the sticking, so perhaps it's not as loud as the pics might depict, so to speak. Overall, this wouldn't have to be the last RS 4.0 on the planet for me to choose it, but the number would be south of $200K, not this pie in the sky $260K -- even as an asking price, even from a dealer, that's borderline preposterous. There are some diehard 911 devotees who are died-in-the-wool duck-egg blue fanatics, too. I imagine one of them will want to sell some GOOG stock at $800+ and pick up this baby blue bauble. : )

Great color. Over-optioned but keeper for the right buyer.

$260k?

That's GT2RS money.

But, there's a lid for every pot.

Either that's unmitigated lies from the "Salesman" or the car is not actually for sale.

Very nice to see a 4.0 in a color other than white or black.

Love that car but 260k seems crazy to me...if I were spending 250k+ I would step a little more and get a CGT.

Obvious to me you don't know the dealership or the salesman
