No...a heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated in this thread. I really appreciate everyone's efforts in trying to find me a car.

Thanks again.

I might do the next one of these threads. :). Doing research now. How common are heated seats? I'd use this as a DD.

I'll sell you mine in a month or so.:)

VaSteve 04-21-2014 08:48 AM

I think I looking a little closer to the fall. And I dont want a black one. Ideally I want dark grey with red inside. A guy on rennlist has one and my wife hated it. I still like it and that's my first choice. :)

VaSteve 04-21-2014 08:49 AM

Dark grey or silver on red.

But how prevalent are heated seats? For a DD that's essential.

onewhippedpuppy 04-21-2014 09:30 AM

The Boxster Red interior looks nice, but make sure you buy a garaged cream puff. It is very subject to fade, and all of the different materials fade at a different rate. So 10 years later it is a red plaid nightmare.:)

I'd say heated seats are 50/50. They were an option, not standard. They can be swapped in, so I wouldn't let that discourage me from the perfect car.

VaSteve 04-21-2014 10:16 AM

Good to know about the red. Of course a red inside would require finding red heated seats....so.....

I agree with you Steve, my next 911 with be Silver/Red. I love that color combo for some reason.

onewhippedpuppy 04-22-2014 09:47 AM

My 951 was silver over red, it was a great looking car.

VaSteve 04-22-2014 09:51 AM

I like this one....I'm not quite in the market yet.
