I had the exact same requirements. I especially didnt want that wart. Took me some time but the cars are out there if you look hard enough.
Perimeter, Hmu if you want to put some miles on that car as I'm also located in Scottsdale. Moved here from LA and sure miss the canyon carving. If you know some great routes pm me.
Cheers

The new owner is a driver, we'll be taking our GT4s on some runs, come along!
Fun driving routes in almost any direction; Tonto basin loop , Yarnell grade to Prescott, traversing the Mogollon rim, 89A/Oak Creek Canyon, Telgraph canyon to Ray ASARCO mine... see u at Cars N Coffee
I have Two GT4s, easy to cause confusion

I'm still searching locally, the deal fell through with the local GT4. I have my eye on a car out on the East Coast but due to the car shows at Pebble Beach, I can't get enclosed shippers until the end of September.

I had a free white GT4 that I put all the miles on it, Touring inbound, garage space dictated my actions but yep we're getting this one out now.

The owner and I had agreed to $92k and I would cover the two year service (oil change + brake flush etc.) and I had the DME scanned on Monday. Then Monday night he says that he needs $95k now... yes its only $3k more but it pisses me off we had the verbal agreement at one price, I shift over funds to pay cash, then he says its now $95k. I'm going to be spending 5.5 of 8 weeks during September/October in China, if I don't land a car in the next two weeks I will need to wait.

That guy paid $21.5k ADM too, then he kicked it out way below market because the stitching didn't match the calipers.
The struggle is real.
Don't settle for a bad build even if it is $20k under market, just not worth it.
Exact same as that other bad build but GT silver exterior and yellow stitching matching the PCCBs
$117k MSRP, stitching properly matches calipers, $2700 full front wrap, no chips, no problems, no excuses, only 1600 miles, owner was off driving embarassing mismatched stitching to brake caliper GT4, asking $115k, In Scottsdale but I can drive it to anywhere in CA within one day.

Wow, tough crowd! 99.7% of us would be lucky to one day own a GT4, matching stitching or not!
With that said, could a car be stitched in a different color? I suppose there is at least one upholstery expert out there that would do it for less than $20k!

In fact the OP is correct that red calipers were matching .... and originally specc'ed. Then I bought the 997.2 GT3 and it had PCCBs which are amazingly impressive performers and had to change the GT4 spec order to add them.

That would **** me off as well - especially after you went to trouble of having DME scanned. Don't rush - be patient there are plenty of GT4's out there and the right one will come up, don't settle! Pay up for what you want when you see it. When you are patient when the right car and deal present themselves you will be ready to act quickly.
Enjoy the hunt!
