Description:
I am a third owner of this car. I bought it approximately 9 years ago with 24k miles on it. The car was my daily driver for a few years but now is just my fun car. The car was meticulously maintained and I have all records. The oil was changed every 5k miles and I am up to date on all service. The car was used for drivers education events for about 1.5 seasons (maybe 10 total events). During that time period, brake fluid was bled after every event and oil changed every other events. The car never missed a beat, never had any mishaps and handled great.
Exterior 7/10: The car is frequently waxed and polished. It still has a beautiful sheen and does not show its age. However, there are some normal paint chips that you would expect from 80k miles of driving. All metal is original. The left drivers fenders was lightly re-sprayed and clear coated after somebody keyed it. The paint match is very good. There is a small scratch that was retouched on the passenger front fender area that is very hard to see. Otherwise, no major dings, dents or otherwise.
Interior 8/10: The interior is in great condition. I regularly use leather conditioner and there are no cracks or tears in the seats. The car comes with two sets of floor mats. The OEM floor mats and aftermarket ones that have red Porsche lettering. The car has a full leather interior, which is relatively rare with these cars.
Tires & Undercarriage 7/10: The car comes with Bridgestone RE730 tires, which are relatively new, probably about 65-70 %, tread. Recently cleaned under carriage of car while on lift.
Mechanical Condition 8/10: The car runs like new and everything works. It is truly a great car. These cars are extremely sensitive to alignment (including kinematic toe) and this one is set up properly. The engine pulls strong and does not burn excessive amounts of oil. No oil leaks and valve cover gaskets recently replaced. No check engine lights and I have seen no signs of any need of top end repair. All belts recently replaced with OEM. The air conditioning was blowing weak last summer so may need recharge or possibly other repair. All air mixer flaps and HVAC unit working properly when I hooked up my computer to it but I have not done further diagnostics at this point. Clutch take up is smooth but a bit high in the pedal stroke. It has been this way since I had the car without any slipping, chatter or other signs of wear.
Accessories: The car comes with radio faceplate cover, car cover, ALL books, tools and records. Mounting points for inner lap belt portion of 5-point harness system professionally installed through transmission tunnel.

Beautiful car, and I quite dig the upgrades. Had I not just closed on purchase of a silver '96 last week, I'd be so onto this one. GLWS, someone's going to be very happy with this car, I predict.
