Pretty damn unique

More owners need to spec painted seat backs it really livens up the interior

Yes, this is our car.

Just went on the market about a week ago. You must be thinking of a different car.

Awesome color. Looks like Aero as well.

I don't know about the deal, the mods, whatever... but I clicked on the link, opened up the pics on my new 27" iMac I just got last week and the resolution looks so grainy on them that it didn't show well at all to me. They just don't seem to do this car a bit of justice.

I'm sure it's MUCH nicer in person. Good luck to the new owner. It is amazing...I'm sure, just not in those pics I'm looking at now.

Nice to see an 09 come up for air. It is stunning and new owner should be happy.

The toy barn in Dublin has it. They've told me they have it and it's for sale, but won't give me a price. They've said the current owner is unsure of wanting to sell.

Interesting that they think they can sell it at the price that was asked originally (clearly they paid less). Maybe they can, but I doubt it.

It's a nice example of the 997tt. I just can't seem to make sense of the $20,000 premium for the color. I'm sure it's worth it for someone.

It's also quite surprising to see the 2009 manual 997tt getting higher prices based on a collectibility projection. Not saying it's wrong, just surprised by it.

That's the exact car I'll be looking for when I get back to the US and I don't get the $104k ask either. I know a PTS car is going to come with a premium but that's just mental!

As for the $20k number, there's several .2TTs that fall into the low 80k range;

Or, you could even step up to a 991TT, at the same dealer for just a 10% bump;

It's a beautiful car but there's no way it's worth that kind of coin when you consider what else is out there.
