My mistake yes stainless exhaust tips
@RareCarCollector this doesn't have the sport exhaust, just the stainless exhaust tips. If it did it would have a switch for it.

@Skindoc maybe for a run of the mill yes but if you had a 997 4S in a rare and desirable color like this it would probably be $10-$15k more

Wow, this example must be in the top 5 percent of 996 C4S. It should sell very well.

@wadds1971 Yes we have documentation for the IMS service, we are open to a reputable shop doing the bore scoring, no smoking from tail pipes, yes the IMS bearing has a warranty that is transferable. Yes we can ship this car to Seattle area enclosed shipping
Bid in the amount of $31,500
Beautiful 996 C4S! Nice service updates just completed, too. Any evidence of bore-scoring at all, e.g. smoking from tailpipe(s) on start-up, or extra rattling sounds from the engine? And yes, it would be nice to know which IMS bearing was used for the update, and whether or not it comes with a transferrable warranty.
As a dealer, do you have connections with any reputable shippers who could send this to the Seattle area via enclosed transport? Any idea what this might cost? Thanks!
Don't see the paint meter readings.
