And by the way, that advice sounds good, but is actually quite dumb IMO...There are times, when saying something that is "not nice" can create a positive outcome....Like...Hey, you should not drink all that alcohol, and drive yourself home...you may kill yourself or someone else.....Or hey....Don't be stupid and step too close to the edge of that cliff...you may fall....Or NO...your arms are way too flabby to put that tattoo there

And for the record...That car is extremely well optioned, but I think it is very ugly as well...Just my taste. That grey?? Looks kid of like battleship...and agree with others...those black wheels with the silver stripe are not doing it any good either...But again. That is my opinion....

I kinda dig the grey, but interior is over the top for me.

I think the car looks great. The red interior is strong but least it has a black/red interior not a full red interior. I think the original seller was selling it close to the average price of a 997.2tts, a great deal imo. To each their own.

I remember when it was posted originally in the classifieds. I love this car and if it was anywhere near a price I could afford I would be selling my car and buying it immediately.

This is coming from a guy that spent almost a year looking for a jellybean-colored car. That color is just so cool.

Default thanks

Like to see all the comments...

I love the car... The turbo S can really take on multiple personas.... it can be very subtle and under the radar (navy w/tan interior for example) and then be something completely different in something like this.

Personally LOVE the build. Wish it was local for me in Northeast and could see in person. I think the car looks more "exotic" car like with this over the top paint and interior but can see how many (even most) may not want that.

thanks for the comments all

I stopped and looked at this car the other day. It was bought by Livermore Porsche and the price has gone from $118k to $138k. Beautiful car and love all the leather. The only thing I didn't like was the turbo S script on sides and the black blade on the top of the rear spoiler. At the original price of $118k I think it was a nice buy, at the new price not so much.
