2007 Factory black wheels are all black, including barrels.

Thanks Chris! Appreciate the correction and confirmation. Looks like your car has XD9 which is wheels and caps in exterior color. Super strange that on the 997.1 GT2, XDA as shown below, has the black face with silver lip.

Also, the 997.2 GT3 has the same setup, with silver lip on an XDA car.

Maybe the 7.1 GT3 is the car where they did all black.

Actually, I'm glad that I found the car I was thinking of, this has wheels painted deviated color on the window sticker. However, the build sheets must not be correct as it doesn't show the option (both on VIN analytics and the data I have). Has the black face with silver lip and barrels. WP0AC29938S792167

Seems like a good price for each. I bet the accident on record slowed the sale a bit. Looks great in silver, one of the only situations id trade my black for a silver car.

This probably deserves its own thread but I just came back from Ohio (to NJ) with my new-to-me 7.2 GT3 from Doug at @switchcars. Everything everyone said about Doug was spot on. What an amazing sales experience. He’s a stand up guy and despite all my attempts to annoy him and his team with all my questions and messages, he and Daniel always kept my satisfaction as priority #1.

Also, I can’t believe I waited this long to buy one. There truly is no substitute. The 6 hour drive home was absolutely perfect to get to know the car and although I’m exhausted I can’t sleep because I want to drive it again right away!!!!

Thanks for everyone’s advice in this thread and I hope I can pay it forward by chiming in when others have questions.

Some pics of my trip:

I bought my GT3 from/through Doug as well. and your review is spot on. Although I never met him in person he was always willing to answer all of my emails, calls, and texts. The whole transaction was perfect.

Congratulation on your new car. Looks like you got a good one and there's no better way of getting acquainted than a long drive home. Enjoy it!

2007 GT3. 25,610 miles. White. Some track time. Only range 1's. Paint protection film. Carbon mirrors and rear wing (flat part only). Fabspeed intake which I would recommend anyone looking to buy this car remove and put on the factory box which is included. Fabspeed exhaust. Rennline pedals. WP0AC29967S793117
