We are pretty meticulous with our cars and keep them a long time so want to find one that is fairly pristine and one owner and willing to wait to find the right car. We also want blue, burgundy, or white and non black interior AWD which narrows choices down considerably.

Again, appreciate all of the input! The search continues...

Along similar lines, my last 911 (not a Turbo but a 996 C4) still had about 50% pad thickness left in the rears at 30k miles when the fronts wore out.

I do agree that the brackets would seem to indicate some mods at some point.
