Porsche 911 Carererra Cabriolet on 2040-cars

2004 Porsche 911 Cabriolet, 6-speed manual.  British racing green exterior, camel brown leather interior.  Brand new black convertible top. 

This is a 2 owner car.  Purchased new in late 2004 from Pacific Porsche in Southern California.  The car spent its entire life in So Cal (Hermosa Beach, to be specific which is a very affluent area) until I purchased the car 15 months ago and had it shipped to me in Philadelphia.  It was owned by a man in his mid-to-late 50’s is my guess on his age.  Since I have had the car I have put approximately 2,500 miles on it and have had it garaged the entire time.  I have put a brand new top on it as well as did some minor mechanical work to it – tune up, oil change, and new battery…

On the outside the car is a 9.5 out of 10.  Not a scratch/dent/or blemish to be found on the car except a few rock chips on the front.  Tires are in very good shape, rims are perfect.  As previously mentioned, there is also a brand new convertible top.   Mechanically it is pretty much perfect.  I had it checked out by a Porsche mechanic and he gave it a clean bill of health.    The inside:  I would rate this car an 8 out of 10.  The dash, door panels, and carpet are all in phenomenal shape.  The only reason I rank it as an ‘8’ is that each one of the leather seats could use some patchwork.  I  detailed the small issues in the pics as accurately and honestly as I can.  The seats despite the two small holes, they are in good shape.  If you want this car to be a 10 in every aspect, you could certainly redo the seats.  I have gotten some estimates to redo both seats to the exact dye of the Porsche leather and it will run approx. 2K.  I’m sure you could get it done quite a bit cheaper but those are the quotes to do the entire job perfectly. 

I have babied all of my cars but I am getting rid of many of my toys – I have a 2007 BMW 550i (also a stick shift) that is in absolutely flawless shape as well as my 1986 Volvo 240 (again, 5 speed manual) that is in superb shape, and a Wellcraft 22 foot bow rider.   

I have included pics but can get more upon request.  Below is the carfax report that I kept from my purchase last year.  Do not let the miles fool you.  This is one of Porsche’s best engines produced.  If properly cared for and not abused, this car can easily top 200K miles as the engine is near indestructible on these cars.  This is a prime reason I bought it but due to some unforeseen life changes I am selling many of my possessions.    I am selling this as a very low reserve auction.  I will aid in shipping the car or can show the car personally if you are local.
