Does anyone know this car?

Helped my buddy drive this beauty down from SF to LA yesterday. Heavily optioned 2005 997 C2S. Possibly a launch car (PCCB, FULL LEATHER, GT SILVER PAINT)

Just wanted to see if anyone knew the previous owner and possible history.

Most enjoyable 400 mile drive I've had in a long time

The -05 launch cars with PCCB's were black so this isn't one of those. Pretty car nonetheless. Looks like it's been well taken care of.

Drove like a new car. Everything still tight. No squeaks or rattles. Full leather was in MINT condition.

Had the short shift option so it was a treat rowing through the gears.

I was apprehensive for my friend at first due to the car being an early model 2005 (IMS/RMS issues), but looks like he picked up a winner.

It's getting a check up at Lucent this week to see what else it needs.

Great value. The sticker on this thing was $107K new!

Exactly. He bought one way plane tickets for us from LA to SF with the intention of buying it regardless of condition. And the risk paid off.

It got a clean bill of health.

I told him to drive it for a year and sell it to me for the same price
