Beautiful car. Unfortunately, probably will be bought by All Things Porsche or GP Motors to be flipped for $350k.

I just noticed something, but is the .2 RS at Autokennel has mismatching door panels. The passenger side has Alcantara centers, but the drivers side has leather ones.

easier for the driver to wipe away the vomit from the g-forces?

Could be a factory boo-boo. I've seen things like this happen in the past when someone orders a special interior, in this case the DZF leather options.

Really? I would be blown away at a $170k car that had different door panels. I would think the owner that bought it new would throw a fit once he noticed it.

Ehh its only a $3,000 parts+labor

If this has a completely clean DME the rest is clean enough to where its in the 250-300k range, I'd match the panels before I sold it just so threads like this don't start.

These cars are turning into houses... sit on the market for more than 2 weeks and buyers freak out something is wrong... gotta take it down and start over in a few months

Granted the BAT car I bought just got back from a porsche PPI... I only have 16 Durametric Faults to work through, homework pays off in some cases

Yep it does happen with all manufacturers! I ordered my Aventador roadster with orange leather door inserts and it came with black. Even my scale model that came with the car had the orange inserts...

There was also that infamous e92 M3 that was ordered in Atlantis blue and was delivered in Atlantic blue.

I asked Autokennel about it and they replied that's how the car came from the factory. I bet it left the line and nobody ever noticed, maybe the original owner thought it was unique!

It's a one of one, DCTS (Door card to sample). Should be marked up another $100k.

Same sort of philosophy as the Arctic Silver/Black/Orange .1 RS and we know how that has been working out lol
