I assume pse can be added. What might that cost and is there a better exhaust option. Navi would be great but I can live without it. Bluetooth is more of an issue for me but it appears the parrot systemis a good option.
Thanks.
Thanks.
If you can get them under 60k w/ CPO then I would pounce. Wont last long with that starting price.

Well, I pulled the trigger on my first Porsche! Subject to my physical inspection.
Now I need to find a day to take the trip to pick it up.
I was pleased to learn that there is still 1 year on the factory warranty as well as an additional 2 as a result of the CPO. I'm negotiating a price to install the pse in the car (with the existing sport chrono pkg) and I was wondering what you all think an appropriate cost should be? Or if it makes sense to not do anything at this time and replace it with another high end exhaust at a later date.
Thanks again for the lessons I have learned lurking the board as well as recent feedback since I joined.
Mods are the next item. Im thinking:
Clear side markers (where to purchase and how much)
Valentine 1
smart top?
clear bra (full hood)
Any other thoughts?
Thanks again.

dealership should have clear sides..should be under $30 for both
pose probably around $2500 plus install
have them install and use a switch in ash tray. Search for directions
probably 3-3200 total
love my V1 - dont pay more than $75 to have it hard wired to interior light
i passed on clear bra
if you dont go pse then get Tubi
i went with pse over tubi because i like to be able to turn down (off) the exhaust when rolling up to work or kid's school etc..also, its oem porsche and comes with full 4yr warranty. Also, PSE gets louder over time. my exhaust is louder today than 3 months ago when the car was brand new

sorry i don't have answers to your questions but p997s seems to have covered them well.
I am in favor of a clear bra, especially with black.
Ditto on the clear bra. My car is an 05 and has had one since new. I'm about to pull it off, have it detailed and have a new clear bra installed. It did it's job well!
