We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again- pre-facelift 997 Turbo models are a downright bargain when compared to many their 997.2 siblings, as well as most else in their price point. This one, finished in Paint to Sample Lava Grey which later became a 997.2 color) has a LOT going for it. Low miles, inoffensive yet unique Paint to Sample color, six speed manual transmission, and decent history with service at Pacific German and prior sale through Portland’s Gran Prix Motors. For some, the six prior owners and such few miles could come as somewhat of a yellow flag, but we see it as a lot of missed drive opportunities that we’d love to make up for.
