Thanks $1,000,000 Techweenie

[RNajarian]

I wanted to express my gratitude to Pelican Techweenie (Bill K) for helping me out today with a PPI on a 2000 Cobalt Blue Metallic 911 Carrera Cabriolet (with hard top.)

It was very reassuring to have an expert evaluate a 21 year old car prior to purchase. He pointed out a few areas of “notice” that helped me get the seller to lower the price an additional $1,000. Not only that, once the deal was done he emailed me additional resources for my new car.

If you are in the LA area and need a PPI give Techweenie a call, you’ll be glad you did.

Actually the seller got his contact information for a future PPI for him.

Thanks Bill, you’re a Porsche Jedi Master!

Thanks for posting this information. Also, nice color.

Good on Bill, and great looking car!!
Although it doesn't appear to be Cobalt Blue to me.

It’s probably not Cobalt Blue, Bill explained to me what most likely happened. . .

“Porsche has always offered some thing called Paint to Sample
so Porsches with varying colors are pretty accepted”

Just another example of his vast knowledge. He’s like Pelican Parts without PARF

Cool. Looks like a new car!!
I believe the option code for paint to sample is L999 on the option sticker under the hood.

[RNajarian]

Thanks for that information. The option sticker is there. Like a dummy I forgot to take a photo of it, I didn’t want to get in Bill’s way as he was checking out the car.

God willing we seal the deal tonight and I’ll have more photos later.

Just checked the Option Sticker. L999 is there! Paint to Sample

Nice ride.

[RNajarian]

Thanks, there are a few small items that need to be squared away but it’s pretty well sorted out.

The seller included an OEM Porsche car cover which was nice.
