997.1 T4S in Nordic Gold/Cocoa

Picked this beauty up today in Sterling, VA. The ad for this car appeared late last summer and the car didn't sell. I kept in touch with the seller and worked out a deal a couple weeks ago.

2007 997 T4S, 2.701 miles in Nordic Gold with full Cocoa leather. Also in leather are:

storage compartment lid with model logo
rear console
steering column
door finishers
supple leather

Other options:

Nordic Gold
Power Seat Package
Dials in Black
Heated Seats
19" Carerra Classic Wheels
Rod Antenna (Have NEVER seen this one b/f....)
Sport Chrono Package Plus
Nav
Bose
Sport Exhaust
Foot Rest Aluminum
Multi-function Wheel

I am sooooooo excited about this car. It literally appears brand new! It was originally ordered by the owner of DEW Motorcars in Sterling, VA. While at their facility today I was given the full tour! What a place. Some very high end restos on Pebble Beach quality Italian cars. What a place!!!!!

Here are a couple pics of the car:



beautiful day for a 400 mile drive....



ya gotta love this cocoa leather. It's like butta....

Nice....My copilot is a 120lb Pyrenese. Yeah he scratched the console (Oh
well) I cut some 2" styrofoam (used the back seat pads as a template) threw a bath mat over them...and he rides in back. Also put a bath mat over the front passenger seat, too.

Love your car

Wow, what a color combo - also given it's a Targa I think the chances of seeing another one just like it on the road are close to 0%! Congrats on the new purchase!

Congrats on a great car.
Welcome to the Targa club - can't say that I've ever seen a gold one.
Good luck. Enjoy it.

What a unique 997. I think the console leather is a sweet addition. The original buyer went all out--drive it well!

Thanks for all the great comments guys. I can't wait to get out and play with it some. Soon as I feel better.... Wasn't feeling great on the trip and have strep throat.

Congrats!
He is such a good boy! Byker was a rescue ~4.5 years ago. He was a show dog and his owners turned him in (basically threw him away) b/c he has food allergies and they were feeding him Chicken McNuggets and his chin broke out and he bled on the man's pants. Hell, I breakout if I eat Chicken McNuggets!!! He sat in a run for ~9 months due to our vet being diagnosed with breast cancer. When my wife (Dr. Doolittle..) got him his fur was falling out and his feet were bleeding b/c his pads were soft from not being walked or played with. In spite of those issues, he is the sweetest boy I've ever met. We are quite fortunate to have him. He didn't enjoy the trip much and is quite happy to be back home with his two girlfriends!

Our plans for the T4S include, tint, 20" monoblock concave wheels (black wheels with Nordic Gold stripe) and a rinspeed Indy rear wing (mounted on a reclaimed 997.1 decklid) so everything can be easily put back to stock when it comes time to pass it on to the next owner.

Going for a custom license plate?
