I have always loved the 997, Porsche just got this aesthetics right from every angle. They managed that near impossible task of redesigning an icon to make it look fresh and new, yet they were able to very successfully integrate the Air-cooled 911 designed aesthetic, almost channeling the 993 in the process. Stunning! Fast forward 15 years and the design is aging so well, I think the 997 will be the air-cooled 911 of the future. Remember when SC’s and 3.2’s were just cars and could be bought for modest sums? That is the 997 right now!

This particular 997 is a true 1-owner car that was purchased at Rusnak Porsche in Pasadena, CA and immediately shipped to the owners home in Boise, ID where it has resided ever since. It has covered just 14k miles and has never been damaged in any fashion, it is as close to a new 997.1 as you are likely to find!

Here is how it is optioned:

-Midnight Blue Metallic- $690

-Metropol Blue Top

-Stone Grey Leather

-6-speed manual transmission!

-Power Seat Package- $1,550

-Bi-Xenon Headlights- $1,090

-Self Dimming Mirrors- $385

-Heated Seats- $500

-BOSE Audio- $1,390

Total Original MSRP- $90,535

This car is without reproach aesthetically, mechanically and history. I have scheduled the car to receive the full 4/year/40,000 miles service just to make sure it is 100% up to speed for the next buyer. Here is what is being done:

-Oil and Filter

-New Air Filter, Cabin Air Filter

-6 new spark-plugs

-New Drive Belts

-Brake Fluid Flush

Once that is done the experts at Metropolitan Detail will work their magic, the car should be ready around the 25th of September, so if you have an interest before then, let me know! 

Where else can you buy a literally near new 911 for under $40k? Move quick!
