Selling my 2006 Carrera S with 14,388 miles on it.
History
Low-option, low-mile 2006 Carrera 2S Coupe, Speed Yellow on Black interior. $86k MSRP with power seats, 19" Carrera Classic wheels, and Sport Chrono Plus being the only options.
The car started off in FL before its first owner moved to the Philly area. Always dealer maintained by the 1st owner. I'm the second owner, and purchased it from a local 911 specialist in 2015. The car had 9,2xx miles on it when I purchased it. I've maintained it myself since buying it, but that really hasn't been anything other than oil changes, a brake fluid flush, and tires (replaced due to age). Alway garaged and on a battery-tender, not driven in the winter or inclement weather. I always drove it long enough to bring the oil up to temp.
Mods
Only two small tweaks: lowered on Eibach springs (with full alignment after the install) and 'gundo-hack' exhaust mod. The exhaust mod basically mimics the PSE option at a fraction of the cost. The car sounds great, and very OEM-like.
Also worth noting that I just spend $1700 on a full paint correction and CQuartz Ceramic coating. This was done just this month, and was performed by the premier detailer in the area.
Condition
This is as close to a new 2006 as you can buy. That being said, there are a few nicks and blemishes, as seen in the pics below...most would have to be pointed out to you to notice. Interior and Exterior are both a solid 9/10.
Everything functions as it should, no CEL, no other warning lights. Plenty of life left on the brakes and tires. No smoking, no pets, no kids. No track time, no auto-x.
Please do your own homework, but the IMS issue that plagued the M96 and early M97 engines is no longer a concern for the 2006 model year. I'm sure I'll still get that question over and over, but at least I tried to cover it in the ad writeup!
Why am I selling?
I rarely drive it. I carpool with two others to work, and a 911 doesn't work that well with a toddler. On top of that, any free time and money I have left over after work/school/household stuff goes towards my SpecBoxster. I'll own another 911 in the future, but having this car sit in the garage doesn't make sense for me right now.
Logistics
I'm right in between Baltimore and Philadelphia, 10 minutes off I95. I've helped with shipping before, and I've met people at the airport before. I've also boarded planes to go buy cars, so I'm familiar with it from both ends. Willing to help out to get the deal done.
Clean MD title, clean CarFax
Asking $50k for one of the cleanest 997.1's on the market. I believe the pricing is in line with the asks on other clean, low-mileage examples.
Please PM me for my contact info - happy to provide email and # for anyone interested.
Thanks!

Thanks! 2006-08 are, for all intents and purposes, exactly the same. I believe TPMS was the only update for 2007.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I had a 06 and it had TPMS but it was a high option car, BTW yours is very nice! I thought I had one of the cleanest around with only 29K miles on her when I sold it in Dec. until I saw yours. Speed yellow is amazing
