@Hpizking Last brake flush was March 2019. I will check my records for the others since 2015.
Tread reading as of 7/1/20:
LF: 6/32"
RF: >7/32"
LR: >7/32"
RR: >7/32"
Tire tread depths? Was there more than one brake flush done under your ownership since 2015? Thx

@ADunn1104 Ok thank you for the information.
@Fireracer17 The ceramics last depending on how hard the car is driven. My car has never been tracked. It's hard to say exactly how long they will last, but you can do your own research on 997 Turbo Ceramics. You'll see people talking about how they can last 100k+ miles. But again, hard to give an exact answer.
@ADunn1104 I’m looking at your beautiful car!

What is the condition of the brakes? Are these the original? Do you have a cost to replace?
Hi All,
Wanted to let all bidders know that I have spoken with my local Porsche Dealer(Loeber Motors) and they are willing to facilitate the transaction AND willing to CPO the vehicle for $4k including paperwork and handling. Any repairs or maintenance would be extra. It's an option for those of you wanting the vehicle certified. I don't anticipate any repairs or maintenance needed. The 6 year major service was performed last year. All service is up to date. This car has been babied for the last 5 years.
Bid in the amount of $75,000
@c2silver Pictures of the driver side bolsters have been submitted to PCAR. They should be up relatively soon. They are in great condition as you'll be able to see from the pictures. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Hi all , this is a very limited production car. There were but many made. It’s an absolute beast. This is the last of the small body Porsche’s. Handles much differently then the bigger 991’s. Who ever buys this will have a smile on there face every time they drive it. This car should sell for at least $115k.

@rbrunson The Turbo S somes standard with Porsche Torque Vectoring. You can see it listed in the build sheet under standard equipment.
@c2silver let me check with PCar to see if I can add pictures. The bolsters on drivers side are in like new condition. No cracks on the leather, barely look like they’ve been sat in. I’ll get pictures ASAP once PCar gives me the go ahead.
Could you provide a picture of the side bolster (driver side)?
@rbrunson Yes to navigation, No to PTV(has PSM).
@SJJ28 That's crazy! I'm sure it is a beast, but could never bring myself to expose the car to salt/snow. It has sat in a heated garage with a cover for the last 5 years from October-April.
Navigation or PTV?
Best of luck with Sale. But don’t blame Chicago!!! I daily drive the twin to this car. Throw some winter tires on it and it’s a BEAST in the snow!!! (Not to mention an absolutely blast). Beautiful car!
@TubeGuy Thank you!
There are NO cracks in any of the carbon fiber interior. Steering wheel, center counsel, door sills are all crack free. The interior is in impeccable condition. FYI, the "Turbo S" on the door sills light up. This is one of the upgraded options on the example.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Beautiful car. Are there any cracks in the carbon fiber? I thought I saw one on the center console but it may be lighting.
Hi All,
Just want to introduce myself(seller). Please feel free to comment with any questions you may have. I am sad to depart with my beloved Turbo S, but living in Chicago has not made it easy to take out for joyrides. Enjoy the pictures of this beautiful example and good luck with bidding.
