Looking for a 997-S

We have a Box-S we love, but want to replace it with a Seal Gray 997S either 05 or 06, but there don't seem to be many around ...with an interior other than Gray.

There's some excellent, pretty loaded, sub-$70k buys out there in 05's but in the wrong combos for us. I found a couple of great cars: with slush boxes!?

The other problem: we want a Touring car (still a shifter..) rather than a track car, so the options must lean to 'plush' vs sport.

Who knows ... when you put the word out among friends; things happen. Thanks.

....hope to be with you soon.

this one is Arctic, not Seal grey....but this is a gorgeous car & maybe some wiggle room on price (?). http://north-olmsted.porschedealer.c...ntoryid=270289

I saw this car last week, there is not a blemish on it. If you don't want grey interior, Cocoa leather is almost black in color, photos never portray it accurately...must see cocoa in person to appreciate.

My brother knows the former owner-- a retired gentleman, age 60-something VFW veteran, restaurant owner who just traded this in on an '07 C4 cabrio.

Good luck on the search... Seal Gray is by far my favorite color also.

I've got an 05 Slate with cocoa? I am thinking about upgrading to a GT3 or supercharging. I haven't decided.

PM and I can give you all the details on the C2S that Cortez told you about. The car is brand new and beautiful.
