Default I did it!

Thank you to all of you have provided valuable advice in the last little while. I finally did it. This afternoon I picked up a Guards Red 2006 Carrera S Cabriolet. It has 54,226km and 9.5 weeks of factory warranty remaining. The car has the following options:

Sand Beige Leather Seats
Sand Beige Floor Mats
Power Seat Package
Porsche Crest in Headrest
Tiptronic S
Heated Seat
19" Classic Wheels
Wheel Caps with Color Crests
Navigation for PCM
Bose High End Sound Package

I ended up getting the seller to put on brand new rear tires and to do an alignment. Ended up paying just under $62k for the car.

Didn't have time to take pictures yet. Will do so later and post.

Congrats! Seems like a decent price for a canadian car. Enjoy it!


Now, the big question is - are you going to drive it for one more month then tuck it in for winter or get a set of snows?

Great news. Congrats. That also sounds like a pretty decent price for an S. Happy motoring. Get the pics up before you get banned. ;o)

Sweet. Any chance this is the one that was on Kijiji being sold by Alex in Oakville? If so I saw this car back in the summer at Mantis when I was picking my car up there when I bought it. Alex also administered the sale of my car.
