I bought the car back in 2009 with 1400 miles on it. Found it at the local Rolls Royce dealer in Orange County. The owner of the Rolls Royce dealer at the time also owned the Porsche dealer in Palm Desert where the car was previously traded in, practically brand new. Car sat unsold at the Porsche dealer for a few months and the car was sent down to Orange County Rolls Royce for more sales exposure. 2009 was a terrible time for car dealers (recession). Made a sweet deal and have enjoyed it ever since. The Turbo is a Sunday driver only, drive a Macan GTS as my daily driver. Love the Porsche brand for sure!

VID997, love the front bumper and fenders! Was it all plug and play to install or was there a lot of massaging to get the parts to work together and fit onto the car?

Was definitely NOT "plug & play". I had the car fitted with PWR Endurance radiators (all three) which are thinker than the standard "race" versions, so custom brackets had to be fabricated. There was also some tricky programming and wiring that needed to be done in order to make the 997.2 DRL's to function properly. Then there was suspension bits, wheel carriers, fenders, liners, ducting, 10.0 x 19.0 front wheels, paint...the list goes on and on....
