Looks like a great car! but modded cars always seem to be in the shop more than bone stock cars, PPI for sure

Before you even spend money on PPI, go buy a paint meter then meter the car.

For that crazy price, the car should not have any paint work, and meter doesn't lie.

For anyone who is going to buy a car new or used, I would suggest a paint meter. Sometimes, even new car has paint work at the port of entry, BMW VPC does a lot of paint work, for example.

That car is HOT! I looked at it myself a few weeks ago. No heated seats tho --- walk! LOL JK

I agree with the others. Yellow Turbo --- someone will want it when you are done. Get a PPI and buy with no hesitation. Price? Yes, a tad high, but hey, if you want it you want it. 90k and id buy that car.

I'd rather buy a stock car than one that has been modded.

Me too, but I think we are in the minority.

Buy a stock 997.1 and mod it yourself.

It will mean much more to you then.

The mods should not improve the price of the car much over its Blue Book value.

They never do.

Just needs the 997.2 tail lights and your car is done.

love the color and the mods but they are definitely asking on the high side. As said before, mid-high 80s tops...

Thats a good looking car, and I like the color.
I've never bought an expensive car so I don't really know if the price is too high.
Just buy it if you really like it, I think you're going to have a lot of fun with it.

Can't comment on price or resale, but damn. Clean car with quality upgrades!
