But an affordable price for a Turbo I would think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the go with that accelerator mod. Is that a super cheap rubber mat jbwelded to the bottom half of the after market accelerator pedal cover. On the passenger side we have the the opposite hand super cheap rubber mat over dare I say it a super cheap ill fitting carpert mat. ( where is the red outer stitching on that mat) So i'm thinking was that a spur of the moment may as well go for extra paint protection on the interior and go the 2 pack gloss job whilst a few bits were dismantled to make way for that custom entertainment system. If so looks like they ran out of paint. Eg surely another pot would not have not gone to waste. That silver section on the gear selector should of been matching gloss red and the overs could have been used on those rubber mats. If only they wrapped it to keep the same theme in and out. (easily ripped off) Or have I got it all wrong. Eg three toned factory interior options and its a bit of a kinder surprise. i.e red duco under that wrap.

Fraz Posted 28March, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 28March, 2019 I’m actually thinking there more to this car than literally meets the eye, my bet is the car is actually red under that wrap they have just left cut outs to expose the red on the exterior. The interior could also be factory, I’ve seen stranger options and wouldn’t be surprised, it’s a very high gloss and why would they go to the trouble of painting that thin strip along the dash, the red got red gauges are what go me really thinking. Now the cherry on top is the rear aero spoiler which is a very rare and expensive option. Im don’t judge a book by its cover, could be a bargain.

I’m now thinking the red stuff on the interior is also wrap, that rear wing normally comes with a carbon interior package, I suspect there is mint factory carbon under that red.

Fraz Posted 6April, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 6April, 2019 Few 997s https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2007-Porsche-911-Turbo-997-Manual-AWD-MY08/SSE-AD-6013606 So nice 🤤 https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2010-Porsche-911-Turbo-997-Series-II-Auto-AWD-MY11/SSE-AD-5988697 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas Posted 8April, 2019 Report Share Posted 8April, 2019 Perfect spec on the red 997TT. Manual coupes come up for sale infrequently (less than one a month) and I've not seen a better spec'd car in 2 years of watching these. Fraz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troubleshooter Posted 8April, 2019 Report Share Posted 8April, 2019 Haven't seen it mentioned here but I'm sure most on this thread know about it. Came on CS around 3? weeks back and sold in 1? week....997.1 Turbo man coupe Black with red int (looked a little darker than boxster red and wasn't flamingo red I am sure) with about 125,000klms iirc. Price was $120k. Had a little sticky beak at it today and looked to be in great shape, even the seat bolsters for 125,000klms - probably touched up from a yard sometime in it's life and also the front bumper and bonnet would definately have had a spray somewhere in it's life. Car looked like a very nice buy as even high k for a Turbo of this vintage will effect the usual price a fair bit but at $120,000 someone will be a very happy chappy and landed a good one at a good price.

Did you pick up this 997 turbo and hence the eagerness to offload at least one of your aircooled in the stable to make room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my saved list it’s still at $185K SOLD, so can only assume it was close to asking as it was only listed for a week or so if that. These 997 manual turbo’s seem to sell very quickly, the last one sold for the same price in under a week. hugh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twro Posted 26April, 2019 Report Share Posted 26April, 2019 Hi, does anyone know whether Porsche Cars Australia originally bought in and sold the 997.2 Turbo in a manual? I can only find PDK's listed for sale currently on Carsales (4 of them), but cannot find a way to search 'sold' cars on Carsales (does this exist??) Thanks for any help.
