Last week I missed out on buying my perfect 997 Turbo and am really kicking myself. I would like to see if I can find something similar that might not be on the market already.
I can spend up to $90,000, but would prefer to be at $80k
Here's what I missed and would love to find:
2007 997 Turbo
Exterior: White, Red, Black,
Terracotta or other interesting interior (no basic black on black). Looking for Piano or Carbon trim. Alcantara is great also.
Painted Seat Backs
Manual
Sport Chrono
Upgraded Suspension
Upgraded Turbo's from a reputable shop
Clean History and would prefer to be under 30,000 miles but that's not a deal breaker.
Just really kicking myself at losing out on this car. I hope to find something similar! It was ruf_rturbo's car.
Wow, I think mines might be in your specs and ballpark.. no upgraded turbos, the suspension is just springs. Other than that its pretty much what you may be looking for with a warranty till 5/2015.

2 tone terracotta interior, nice car. i'm also hunting for a 997.1TT so am keen on what's available and also true market value of these cars.
tightt, beautiful car, almost exactly what i'd be looking for. It's very unique in many ways, you'd be well served to looking at what's in the market in terms of $. you'll never be comparing apples to apples with the unique features of your car, but it's still an 07' 997.1TT. best of luck with your upcoming sale.
TighTT- I have never been able to understand your interior and I do not critique it because I have not seen it in person and as a Cocoa interior owner myself, know how it changes drastically in person.
Cocoa with white seat backs is amazing. Then the black centers? Questionable, then red stitching/belts? I dono, now you've got 4 interior colors. . . Did you order this new? I've always wanted to know.

My thoughts EXACTLY when I was called by Champion Porsche to come look at it. I thought to myself "man...this thing must be hideous!". I was wrong....its stunning. I don't know how it works...but it works SO damn well. The centers are not exactly black...more of a light gray, which matches the roof liner, etc. I would say its not for everyone....but I have yet to find someone who says they dislike it...in fact...its usually quite the opposite. At last years Champion Motorsport open house I received several offers on the car, all of which were promptly turned down as I planned to keep this car. Now that Im fighting a herniated disk in my lower back, its made driving manual a real bear, so Im grudgingly thinking about moving to a PDK.
HIX I have a friend here in Dallas that has a 08 Light silver Turbo with Expresso interior that is a manual with 27k on the clock and in perfect shape.Not exactly what you are looking for, but a clean 997 Turbo. Car has not been listed yet, but in the ball park $ you are looking at. It has been serviced at Park Place and all records are up to date. It has been adult female owned. She is moving from this 997 Turbo to a 991. I have encouraged her to list the car here and Rennlist before trading it to the dealer. If interested in box me and I can put you in touch.

I'm very sorry to hear about your back. Now that you mention the gray alcantara with the matching roof, it makes more sense already. I happen to have options for Cocoa leather A&B Pillars and Leather Roof Liner so I hadn't thought of it that way.
I am such a Cocoa lover and I am literally obsessed with white seat backs so I am sure the car is a true knock out in person. GL with everything! Maybe you'll get better and be able to keep her?
And to the OP - TighTT's car would be a TOUGH one to pass up on!!
one at Inskip Porsche in RI, 997TT, white, terr interior, factory aero kit, 09, mid 80's, low miles, high options...cpo I believe, Kurt is the sales guy..
