Detailed images are provided in the photo gallery along with paint meter readings and a clean CARFAX report. This Turbo S features yellow-painted Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) calipers tucked behind the factory Exclusive 18” GT3 wheels. These wheels come finished in silver and are currently dressed in Michelin tires showing date codes from 2010.

@d90_1372 sorry but the option sticker under the bonnet stopped in 05 based on what i read and was told but Porsche people with lots of Knowledge
I read and been told that under the bonnet options stickers stopped in 2005, the reason I say that is i read it on several blogs .
I also owen two 2005 S cars that have no bonnet option sticker .
I personally liked that feature, but life changes and we move on.
Can you clarify what paperwork you have with the car? Thanks
Please provide a picture of the underhood option sticker and a DME. Thank you.
Any updates with respect to DME?
@Elg85wtail @Elg85wtail, yes as to over-revs with DME. Thank you.
I foresee a couple of thousand in paint correction in the near future...
@MurderMammoth by DME Data you would like to know about over revs.. ? we will be submitting a report as well.
Such a limited run of these 996 Turbo S cars, especially with the manual. Classic Black on Black is the correct combo for this specific car, in my opinion. Special ride that will grow and grow in demand over time. Hard to think anyone would regret spending up for this car in the near future and the long game on these Turbo S cars based on rarity is a great play. Good luck with your sale and congrats to the new owner.

Please post the DME data.
@satchdh we will load pictures of all under carriage.
Any chance you could add photos of the underside of the car? Since the car was registered in Missouri and Virginia would like to see if there is visible rust.
