Looking to Buy a Slate Grey / Meteor Gray Manual 997.1 Turbo
Must have options:
- Manual
- Coupe
- Slate grey or meteor grey, would also consider silver, lapris, or other blues
Nice to have options:
- PCCB
- Sports chrono
- Adaptive seats
- Black or terracotta leather are ideal, but would consider other interior options
- LSD
- Rear park sensors
Please reach out if you are considering selling or know of a vehicle that fits the criteria above. Thanks!

Slate gray is relatively uncommon, exact numbers can be found on **********. My friend who has a Slate Gray Turbo searched for a year for his.
The real key is to be patient with your search. It may take 6 months to a year, but to find a car that you will keep long term, it is worth it. I also would keep in mind that you shouldn't let something simple like not having carbon fiber trim prevent you from buying an otherwise ideal car. Simple things like wheels, steering wheels, exhausts, can all be changed.
I would recommend reaching out to Switchcars or Merit Partners and considering using them to help you in your search. They have the ability to get you cars that you otherwise would not be aware of.
Best of luck with the search. It is fun.

I've been looking on and off over the last 3 years so I'm willing to wait for the right one to come up. It will be well worth it!

Both of these seem perfect.

That second car you sent is nearly perfect for what I'm looking for - great minds I got in touch with the dealer a few week ago but they've been terrible with communication which kind of put me off.
Hopefully the owner / seller is a forum member and can help answer questions!

Glad you have been in touch with them. Yes, communication via email/phone when buying a car is not fun, especially if you are not dealing with a very reputable higher end Porsche specialty dealer. I would recommend getting a good PPI and if it checks out moving forward to putting a deposit down and flying out there to see the car in person.

Atlas is the best color though. Hold out for an atlas!

2nd one looks to be meteor grey, you can tell with the lighter appearance and lack of "depth"
I was the one Bxstr was referring to, love my car!
