Judging from the one in-person example I saw a couple years ago on a 997, yes.

Two tone black/terra. Exact color combo of my second 997tt. Absolutely gorgeous in the flesh.

That doesn't look anything like Terracotta.

However, it may well be that it is indeed Terracotta and the camera flash has simply distorted the true colour.

The options I listed and colors are straight off the Porsche PPN spec sheet on the car

I hope that low price is based on the interior color. Gees, the bottom has dropped on 07 TT's. Glad I'm keeping mine for a long time.

The carfax does not jive with the dealer's comment that this is a one-owner Dallas/Ft. Worth car.

I bought this car, I think it was under priced by 5K.
Look much better in person, It is going to be my DD.
Saved over 50K by buying CPO'd instead of new.
I am told by the dealer/sale-guy the second owner who was
from Dallas turned it in after having keen surgery.

I took an $80k hit driving my 997tt cab for 18 months and 15k miles. I doubt I'll ever buy a new Pcar again. Gently used is the way to go.

I am resolved to getting hit on my 08 F430 that I will be trading for the F458.
I wish I had bought my F430 gently used, but times were different and even used once
were going over list back then.
I am told to expect my F458 in Sep 2011 as per my dealers allocation and
my name order on his list.
