Default Love it...

I love it, but how do you justify that pricing? Just on color? The mods are not so unique or special, and the fact that it's not stock may even depress future value. It is definitely unique, and fitted out very well. Sick looking intake from ECS. Also love the rear wing (Techart maybe?).

Looks sweet .... But IMHO not worth the serious premium ... buy any color you want and throw a wrap on it for a few $$$ ....

It's a very clean, low-mile, high-option, 6-speed Turbo in a very rare color, so I think the asking price is within the realm of reality. And actually, I think it's already sold. The wing is the factory Aerokit wing. All of the mods are easily reversible if the buyer wanted it stock.

Remember: Price is not fact only an opinion. The seller in this case is certainly allowed his opinion, but a buyer, prospective buyer at any rate, is also allowed his opinion.

By the way did you end up buying the 997 TT? Waiting for pics? Would be great to see pics of your Ferrari as well. I would love to own an exotic but afraid of service costs that I cant afford.. My 997TT is amazing but still want an Italian exotic one day..

I closed today. PPI showed some issues so negotiated a better price and got it only today.

I would probably have It shipped by next week. No time to drive it back been too busy.
I am planning to buy a bigger house/garage and just bought this TT, no money to spare.

This was a short review I did for both.

That car has been for sale for awhile, color is cool, but the mods hurt it IMO.

Agreed, the Aero factory option is worth at least $5000 to the right buyer.
And that color over $10K.

I hope to find an "aero PCCB 2009" some day and would be willing to pay 'mucho euros'.

Is this the same car that ECS used to have?
