33K miles.
Clean DME.
CPO -

Been shopping for a while, summary, good cars sells fast. This one popped up and I pulled the trigger.

Big thanks to John Wright at Porsche North Houston for getting the deal done. Hoping to see it by Friday.

(pictures not loading for some reason)
The listing was taken down pretty quickly but I managed to get them to send over the pics.
It's a fantastic find with all of the right options, congratulations again Joe, it's always good doing business with you!

As Tom Petty says, "the waiting is the hardest part;" i.e. I don't have the car yet. Edit - its now heading east!!

Hopefully I'll be able to give a review of the buckets and everything else very soon.....

Edit - would have been quicker to fly out and drive back like you did Ibanezgod - epic roadtrip!

Just got a 2010TT with the carbon fiber sport bucket seats (I'm 5'9" 190-200 lbs) and I haven't sat in them long enough yet to notice a lack of lumbar support but definately do feel clamped in at the shoulders.

Not many out there with sport buckets! Must be a late 08 build to have that option (which was mostly an 09 NA997 thing) and to qualify for cpo still. Nice find.
