Car and Driver article on the 997.2TT. The refresh for 2010 was way more than just the engine and the stereo/nav! These are the ones to have! GLWTA

@groach- regarding the top wear. I think all the 997s have a similar wear pattern. My 2011 turbo s has very minor wear in the same location. It’s got 108,000 miles. There were quite a few 997 cabs at Werks Reunion last month and every one I saw had the same wear. It’s no big deal.
Good luck!
@groach carfax won’t always show ownership/title changes depending on state.
I was able to talk to the dealer today. Sounds like a nice car!

@RADExotics the CarFax lists only one owner through the end of 2020 and 26449 miles. Did you buy it after that?
I got a quote for the 30,000 mile service for $1700. Do you know when the oil was last changed (I’m wondering if it needs service ASAP or if I could wait till 30K)?
Can you comment and take some close up photos of the top wear mentioned in the listing? I think I can see some in the current pictures but it’s hard to really see.
Thank you!

@DFried unfortunately the previous owner (who bough the car new) was moving across the country at the time of purchase. Those records, while they exist, are unavailable and may remain so. We know the car was well maintained, but lack the receipts. I’d suggest factoring in a 30k mi service just for peace of mind. Thanks for the question!
Bid in the amount of $76,300
are service records available?
@RADExotics Beautiful car! Can you describe or get close up pictures of the wear on the top mentioned in the listing? Thanks
I had to look up the Elcometer used for the paint thickness photos. That is a quite impressive paint reader device for accuracy and the cost of the reader is commensurate with the car. Only the best with Porsche. Whomever gets the car will be very happy, what's not to like.
Bid in the amount of $75,000
@Kevin8tor thanks for the info. I was aware that the ‘09s were a cross over year out of the Mezger. My point about the DME is that this example was that it has been treated with kid gloves. And not thrashed about like I would have done.
thanks to everyone for the bids and positive comments. Good luck! Whoever ends up with this Turbo cab will be VERY pleased, it is a REALLY nice one!
Wow! THREE black 997 Turbos up for auction at the same time! GLWTA
Bid in the amount of $60,000
@Mercyhealth Beautiful car - it's going to ring the bell! To be fair, it doesn't need coolant lines pinned because it's the DFI engine not the Mezger. That has nothing to do with the clean DME.
Bid in the amount of $50,000
Great looking 997.2 turbo MT. One owner what else could you want if a soft top turbo 911 is what you seek. Low miles but not too low like it just sat unused on a shelf. This car should do well. This outstanding turbo needs no coolant line pinning as obvious from the almost unbelievable DME showing probably no track time seen. Zero ignitions in all 6 ranges is very rare for the monster power plant in this turbo. Good luck to the seller this is a real gem.
