Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Year: 2007 Make: Porsche Model: 911 Price: $65000 Mileage: 46000 Color: Meteor Gray Private or Dealer Listing: Dealer Listing Location (State): CA Transmission: Manual Drivetrain: 4WD & AWD Hello, Up for sale is my own 2007 Porsche 997.1 Turbo. This car is Meteor Gray with Cocoa Interior. It has not been driven much, about 2100 miles in a year and a hlaf and the time has come to sell it. Miles: 46,XXX- (This will change a small amount but not much) This is the factory options that the car came with: 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe Division: PCNA* Prod Month: 02/2007* Year: 2007* Model: 911 Turbo Coupe Option Description Price: BASE Porsche Base Model 122,900.00 220 Axle-Differential Lock Rear 950.00 342 Heated Front Seats 480.00 635 Parking Assist System 530.00 640 Sport Chrono Package Turbo 1,840.00 9Q Meteor Grey Metallic 0.00 CNE Spoiler Lip Painted 590.00 CNF Front Air Intakes Painted 990.00 CUV Storage Cmpt Lid W/Model Logo 293.00 CXB Door Entry Grds Stl Steel Illu 780.00 DAD Gear Lever/Handbrake Alu./Lthr 1,680.00 M6C Cocoa Floor Mats 115.00 RA Special Leather Cocoa 430.00 XAJ Standard Rocker Panels Painted 750.00 XMP Lthr Sun Visors Lighted Mirror 560.00 XMZ Rear Center Console - Leather 1,260.00 XPA Thicker Steering Wheel-Leather 310.00 XSC Porsche Crest in Headrest 270.00 Total Options 11,828.00 Total Charges 950.00 Total Order $135,678.00 Only issue with the car is the front bumper has a couple rock chips. I will get it repainted if the new owner would like. This has hands down been the most fun car I have ever owned. I have not had any mechanical issue with the car and since I purchased it I have done a slew of things to it including oil change, coolant flush and brakes. Plugs were changed around 200 miles ago to fresh stock plugs and gapped down. All service done at either BBI Autosport or Cobb Tuning So Cal. This car has never been raced while I owned it, never seen a track. I rarely drove it and it sat in doors with a car cover over it. Now, as the car sits it makes 580WHP and about 580ft/lbs of torque to the wheels. It is tuned way down as not to be aggressive on the rods. The car has tunes for E85 and 91 Octane. This car runs as good as stock if not better. I have a lot of time in the tune on this car so I can say it would be hard to find a better running car. This is also the perfect setup for someone who wants to do a 997 Turbo with bigger turbos, as this car has literally everything that would be needed to do bigger turbos minus the turbos and the lines. These are the modifications done to the car as of right now: Engine: GMG Exhaust with High Flow Cats Cobb Tuning 1000cc Injectors Cobb Tuning Accessport with various different calibrations OS Giken Twin Disc Clutch Suspension: Eibach Lowering Springs Stock wheels and tires are brand new! Exterior: LED Tail lights LED DRL's Fixed spoiler Kit ( Not Installed) Interior: Has the bluetooth module/ Ipod hook up. LED Lights for all interior lights Passport Radar Detector Hardwired Price is as follows: $65,000 firm. No trades, no low ball offers. This is the price. Please email me if you are interested in the car. DO NOT PM! There is a group of people that will get the PM's notification and this is a sale of my personal car not Cobb as a company. [email removed] Please let me know if you have any questions at all! Happy to answer any questions and can ship ( Buyer would pay but we have a good amount of transport companies that we use) Thanks for looking! -Mitch Mckee

Quote: i was merely pointing out a statement of fact, and while I'm familiar with the term, i'm not sure where you got the "hate" from? it was more of a bemused disdain, if you must know car was sold a couple months ago, and now with more miles and now at an indie dealer and the price went up by nearly 5k?! and my mention of that is hating? lol. need to re-learn your hip hop speak... and the last thing i'd want to have for you is "attractive qualities", but sure. i'll take it under advisement. ahh, no i won't actually
