@Breakthru Its hard to say. I figured it should still do close to or a little more than a stock example because there are surely buyers who appreciate getting the extra HP at not much more extra cost.
I think it would fetch more stock? If buyers are considering something boosted, an OEM turbo would probably be the best choice. Just an obersvation.
@mrmadell I know I honestly never thought about it til I was asked by one of the Pcar Members. There are 49 pther beautiful states to enjoy it in though :-) #DamnYouCARB
@canyonclassics That’s disappointing that this beautiful car is not California compliant.
Long way to go on this still...hope some serious buyers show up in the final hour. Please feel free to ask for any questions or clarifications. GLWTA
@JTMoney13 Yes Cold Start. The car does not smoke at all. Ever.
Was that video a complete cold start?
A new video has been added to the listing page.
I had a member private message me so I figured this would be useful info for all: From everything I am reading it doesn't seem like its going to be California CARB compliant because it doesn't have the sticker. VFs website seems to agree that it is not for CA residents. Sorry. It has been registered here in Arizona with no issues and we have strict smog rules but aren't that picky on aftermarket equipment.
@mrmadell uploading a cold start and walk around video now. I will try to get out and do a driving video but no promises. Car drives like a dream I have put several hundred miles of seat time in. Love this car!!

I seen the color in person and it is beautiful and sets the car apart. For my taste is missing a pedal. If you want a PDK this is great, has been driven and maintained and the engine is more robusts than the M96/97. A lot less issues with t to his engine, vf engineering does great with their super chargers.
VERY attractive build! This color is perfectly Porsche and I love it.

Chocolate covered caramel. Yummy!
Not in the market at this time, but I must say the depth, beauty and subtlety of Macadamia Metallic just improves over time. GLWTS!
