PPI was done and is clean. Needs new tires, but everything else looked good/solid. They just did the 40k maintenance on it as well.

Nice! I was eyeing this car. Looks like a great example.

Congratulations and given the milage I have a feeling this one will probably be driven!

Exactly my plan. I have a dedicated track car (E46 M3) so this probably won't see much/any track time, but I'll definitely enjoy putting some street miles on it!

CONGRATS Pearce!!! That does indeed look like a good car & at yesterdays price. I LOVE that it has 40+k miles on it. That is exactly the mileage range I was hoping for when I bought mine (since the hope was the price would be commensurate). So that is perfect.

Hey question,... what was this thing sitting on the floor in one of the pics??

I have no idea....need to ask them. I haven't shipped the car yet.

Looks like a cell phone that's been snapped and bent.

when you get new rubber, you should replace those red center-locks with black as well. See here: https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/SKURSCLN.html

IMO, would look better with the silver wheels. congrats!!!! and enjoy that beast!!!

Those are the seat rail cover. Removed to clean the floor mats, I'm told.

Thanks! It's an LVP floating floor. 100% waterproof (and dent/scratch resistant). Thus far, it's held up well. Would be curious to see pics of yours!

Surprised this one didn’t sell much sooner. Congrats on it! I drove by a few weeks ago and tried to sneak a peak since it’s 10 min from me.

I worked at that Porsche (San Diego) store for a few years and the service dept is definitely on the better side as far as dealerships go.

Congrats! You will enjoy it. If you can see in person put a paint meter on it just incase.

Here is an old ad when sold by Fresno. Had a rear cage at one point, not sure with one but probably was bolt-in to seat belt anchor.

Congrats! Sharkwerks did some work on this car and made a small journal of the work including the mods done and some nice pictures. Enjoy!

Default Insurance Quotes - Hagerty

So my Allstate rep called Hagerty to attempt to raise my insurance to $150k....13k mile .2, PCCB w/buckets. Hagerty said there is no way that the car could have gone up $25,000.00. They did a full evaluation and said currently off the assembly line the value of a perfect GT3 with zero miles is $148,000.00. They said they would raise it to $140k but only as a favor to Allstate.

So you new guys buying them I recommend you skip @Hagerty and go with Grundy.
