Of greater concern would be that the car is priced like an S but has the undesirable tan interior with multiple small nicks and scratches, as well as heavy wear on the leather wheel. If you can see wear in the photos, it will be 10x greater in person because photos hide a LOT. It's what you expect at a dealer, an otherwise unremarkable car priced at top of market levels because the Porsche dealer is selling it. A little shopping should find much better deals.

I'm no expert (but Matt is
) however I am guilty of daydreaming and surfing eBay/CL/autotrader for Boxsters/996's
My knee jerk reaction is price too high but then I saw it was at a dealer... if you are shopping Cali. with our plethora of plentiful Porsches I would think you could find a better deal.
FWIW I
DO like the tan interior and the red metallic paint, and love those wheels.
