Full Service on 12/2013 (22,745 miles) the following services were completed: Oil Change, Spark Plugs replaced, Belts replaced, Cabin Air Filter replaced, Intake Air Filter replaced, Wipers replaced, Brake Fluid changed. Oil change was also completed again on 08/2014.
Overall, this vehicle is in outstanding mechanical and cosmetic condition. Having the x51 Power Kit definitely sets this apart from standard 911 S’s. The sound that the x51 Sport Exhaust puts out is intoxicating to say the least. And the Power and handling will speak for themselves. Invoice on this vehicle was $104,000, easily making this the most expensive non-turbo, GT3 997 I have ever seen. The options were tastefully selected, and worth every penny.
Additional Information: From Porsche Literature
The X51 Power Kit is available for the already more powerful 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe. Featuring revised cylinder heads, carbon-fiber air cleaner housing, an aluminum air intake system, a reprogrammed engine control unit, and revised exhaust manifolds with sport exhaust and specially tuned tailpipes, the kit increases power, cuts acceleration times and increases the top track speed of this special model.
With the kit, the horsepower rating of the Carrera S Coupe’s 3.8-liter flat six-cylinder engine increases from 355 (SAE) to 381 (SAE). Acceleration from a standing start to 60 miles per hour (96 km/h) drops by two- tenths of a second — to just 4.4 seconds with a manual transmission
With the manual gearbox, the Carrera S Coupe’s top track speed climbs to 186 miles per hour, the magical 300-km/h figure that puts this Porsche into the ranks of the world’s “super cars.” Top speed on the test track for the 2006 Carrera S Coupe with Tiptronic S transmission is 182 mph (294 km/h).

In my 996, and in the 997 for a bit, I actually used "car seats". The best that I could find where Diono NXT's. They have a smaller bottom portion, which fits the back seat butt pads really well. Works best to remove the backrest when you install it. There's 3 bolts to remove, really simple 3 minute job.
If you need some more assistance, let me know. It was tough for me to work out all those details initially.

And also, Diono's fit really really well. Just took a bit to get them right enough with the belts, as there's no LATCH hookups.

Good eye VDK! Yes, it is. Well, as of now, I actually have 2 booster seats. Most any boosters will work, and some you can even remove the high back.

Thank you, that is good information to have and I may come back to you for more help.
Good luck with the sale of this beautiful car.

Nice car, I will be interested to see what you get for it. It's an unusual build in the sense that it's pretty plain jane but then it has the X51 pack. Probably the lowest MSRP X51 car I have seen.
Very nice unicorn find though. GLWS!

Hey everyone, lowering the price to $53,999. I've also put new rubber all the way around. This was done by My local Porsche dealer, mounted balanced, the whole nine yards. Soooo, basically a deal of the lifetime.
