Default Anyone know if this was a good deal?

I've been watching the market, hoping to make a purchase after selling another vehicle, and I saw this one go on Ebay. Seemed like a very good buy. Anyone know if this was a "find" ?
2007 $71k. 33k miles

Sounds like a decent deal. I'm trying to sell mine as I never get to drive it. I just clicked 30k and looking at $75k. Same story, no track time, original paint and body work. New front splitter, GMG roll bar installed. Rear Main seal taken care of by McKenna Porsche. Porsche indoor car cover and battery tender will come with the car.

19" BBS E88's, RS2 carbon buckets and Fresh Moton Clubsports (never installed) are also available.

Great seller. Original owner. Dealer maintained. Good service records. Couldn't schedule a PPI before auction close. Mooty's recently sold car far superior. I had a black car once.

Black to hot for Florida daily driver! otherwise perfect, I wouldn't have to pay a washtard to scratch my car, taking rubber off because it wouldn't show anyway.

Beside rubber marks cars stay clean enough..

One day I went out into my garage and my two 4 year olds were washing my black 993. Unfortunately, they weren't using any water and were using plastic Brillo pads. Have an aversion to black ever since.

$70s are where the 997.1s like to be….. 60s for storied cars and 80s for pristine garage queens.

I like them bone stock. However if they come with suspension bits and a sharky it is nice.
LSD and GT2 seats are nice too.
