Yes, agreed. That's one of the cleaner 997 Turbo DME's I've seen in a long time.

Revs in only range 1-2 is rare - definitely well pampered so sleep tight and enjoy M-!

Does anyone recommend a service shop in the Bay Area? Any service/maintenace that needs to be addressed at 15k miles? I want to get the car in top driving condition.

Porsche's are meant to be driven like a sports car, not nannied around. Over-revs aren't the grim reaper, just excites the boys in the circle jerk on BAT!!!

All jokes aside, that silver 07 is a cream puff, congrats!

I believe I saw down in the comments that was a dealer-to-dealer sale.
