I'm curious how the tires were installed 2 years ago when the date codes indicate 2016 & 2017 manufacture dates. Is the top in good shape? Picture 42 looks like it may be torn. FYI. This Dec 2005 production date vehicle is of the age when IMS problems were present. Doesn't mean this one has any issues but it does fall into that category.

@Txporsche I'm in North Dallas as well. rrendl10 at g mail.
Sorry to mention this, but I think anyone concerned about the IMS issue should do their own research - the IMS 'issue' went from small bearing to big bearing to no bearing based on model year and vin #. 2006 still had an IMS bearing. It has a very small probability of failure but the issue was not 'solved'.

I would like to see the car today if possible.
I am in the North Dallas area.
Thanks

@911SC2718S The dealer checked the VIN and did a thorough inspection of the car. I was told this car is not one that would be subject to the IMS issues like some earlier year models. Porsche had made corrections before this one was built.
Has this car received the IMS bearing update?

The car is available in Dallas, TX to be seen. When I click on the Carfax pages, it looks clear on this end. Try opening it on a laptop or computer if you can. LMK if you still can't see it clearly. Thanks.
I’m having difficulty reading the CARFAX report. Can you put a clearer repot in the file or send me a copy via email. Also is this car available l to be seen on site
