The car is finished in Midnight Blue Metallic and features pop-up headlights, fog lights, body-color mirror caps, a power-operated sunroof, a rear hatch spoiler, a rear window wiper, and black bumperettes. The hood was reportedly replaced and the front bumper cover and right-front fender are said to have been repaired in 2011 after the car was struck by a falling tree. The seller reports that the rear hatch glass is delaminating at the top.
The 17″ Cup alloy wheels are mounted with 225/45 front and 255/40 rear Continental ExtremeContact tires showing 2017 date codes. The car was equipped from the factory with the M030 sport chassis suspension option, which included Koni height-adjustable front struts and dampening-adjustable rear shocks, upgraded springs, a hollow front swaybar, and an adjustable rear sway bar. The package also added four-piston front brake calipers and four-wheel cross-drilled rotors. The seller states that struts and shocks were replaced in 2017 and the brake hoses were changed in October 2019 along with the front wheel bearings, lower castor bushings, and sway bar bushings. Curb rash is visible on the right-rear wheel.
The cabin features power-adjustable front bucket seats upholstered in Cashmere leather along with color-coordinated door panel inserts and carpeting. Amenities include automatic climate control, cruise control, power windows and mirrors, and a Bluetooth-capable Porsche Classic stereo with navigation. The driver-seat upholstery is worn and the driver-side carpeted floor mat is stained.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 180-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,600-rpm redline as well as gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 55k miles, approximately 40k of which were added under current ownership. The instrument cluster was reportedly repaired in October 2019 and true mileage is unknown.
The 3.0-liter inline-four features VarioCam variable valve timing and was factory rated at 236 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque. The timing belt and water pump were most recently replaced in June 2017, and a 2019 service reportedly included the replacement of the hood struts, valve cover gasket, distributor cap, and power steering fluid reservoir and hoses. The seller reports that the power steering hoses, reservoir, and motor mounts were replaced in a recent service.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. The CV boots were reportedly replaced in 2019. Additional underside images can be viewed in the gallery.
