Car is still for sale, had a serious local buyer who actually spent $500 on a PPI at the local porsche dealer. Before getting the results he ended up coming across a 'steal he couldn't pass up' on another car. PPI came back great with only a few minor clean up items I'll be doing over the weekend.
The only other thing that it noted is one of the headers is dented with possible hairline cracking, I've purchased some ported oem headers and new gaskets and will be replacing the headers as soon as I get those next week. If you do any research on the forums you will find that oem ported headers are recommended as being better or equal to any aftermarket headers until you exceed 700whp.
You will not find a cleaner car with whats done to this one for near my price of $48k.

Here is what else was noted on the PPI that I'm going to do in the next few days:
- Rear tires are cupping with a little more wear on the inner edges, alignment might be a little aggressive on the toe in. Tires have about 7k miles on them and at least 3-4k left (another year of driving for me) even with the current alignment.
- Brakes need to be flushed (will do once I get some new fluid this next week)
- K&N air filter needs to be cleaned (last cleaned it about 6 months ago)
- Notes the front diff seals are slightly 'seaping'...all they recommended was topping fluid off. There is no visible drips or leaking (and no spots on the undercarriage suggesting there has been). *Did some research, looks like the seals are about $30 and would need two of them if they got worse (again, Porsche says nothing is needed at this time)
- Drains underneath front of car need to be cleaned
- Fender liner at FR tire is 'cracked'...this is the half inch flap hanging down in front of the tire, it is not cracked it is cut off. I'm assuming it cracked for a previous owner and they just removed that little section...its probably under $50 to replace if someone cared that much (I'm not planning to do anything about this one)
- Leaves/Debris needs to be cleaned up around radiators - these cars are notorious for trapping leaves and such back in the front bumper with the radiators. *Did some research looks like this is an easy clean up but requires removing the front bumper (probably take me 2 hours or so). Going to try to get to this this weekend.
- Needs new windshield wipers
I think everything together on that list is probably less than $100 in total unless someone really wanted to realign the rears.

Beautiful car, if only I had $48K burning a hole in my pocket...A few other mods that you didn't mention to list but are nice little details to the trained eye are:
-Paint matched bumperettes on the rear bumper
-Clear front side markers
-Aluminum Pedals and dead pedal
Those were just a few little details that caught my eye, you may want to update to include them in your original post. I LOVE Polar silver, I remember when it came out on the 993's and couldn't believe how nice it looked in person. One of my favorite colors. Honestly, I can't figure out why Porsche went away from it. Nothing against Actic silver, but I think the Polar looks much nicer with it's slightly bluish tint. Good luck with the sale, I truly hope this goes to an enthusiast and stays here in the 6speed family.

With the current tune should be mid 400's whp maybe closer to 500wtq. With a retune to 1.2-1.3 bar similar cars are making low 500's whp.

Car is officially gone! Anyone looking for comparisons I did end up selling it for my asking price and had several serious buyers offer the same if my original deal fell through. Holding out for several months might have squeezed another grand or two, but I got it sold quickly and the buyer got a good deal
