New owner of an RS60 with 325 miles

Just picked up a "used" RS60 with 325 miles on the clock. the previous owner had bought the car in September and traded it on a 911 cab - who said there is a recession on?

I had just finished test driving a 2008 white boxster S and was ogling a brand new RS60 when a service tech spun around the corner and parked beside us having just taken this car in. We worked out a very reasonable price - February is a good time to buy a convertible!

I'm really enjoying the car and look forward to going above 4,000 rpm's after the break in period. 1,200 miles to go....
Thanks to all who post on the forum - I had been reading here for a while. I hadn't quite decided on a car yet until this literaly pulled up beside me.

Thanks Sharkster!

I'm new to the Porsche world, your web page is awesome! I really enjoyed the project page - lots of great cars. I'll be researching short shift kits and some other "light" mods soon.

Post any pictures you took of the RS60 project you did - I'm sure lots of people would be interested.

they are a beautiful car - of course i am partial to your colour combo!

the Gt silver really looks good at night

you need clear markers - i also put a cayman air vent in place of the boxster style - looks good with the sport design wheeel

The RS60 is a beaut! When I was shopping for my Cayman S I came very close to going w/a RS60 instead. I'm sure you also got a great deal since it's "used." Congrats!!

I love the look of the rs-60. Very similar to my 2004 Anniversary Edition.
