My old car...

Nice. That interior color isn't for me (and those wheels would have to go) but that's a lot of car for the money. I love them in white. Probably would have ended up with a white one if my wife hadn't nixed that idea.

love the color combo. Seems like a great build

It is a nice car. It's a shame they never drove it--they probably would have had fun with it.

And what's wrong with those wheels? :irate:

Great spec. Too bad it's a 987.1, but the price reflects that.

Yours was a 2007 IIRC, so that does change the engine a bit, no?

The 2007s had the 3.4L M97 engine. The 2006s had the 3.2L late M96. Rated power was higher on the 3.4 (295 v 280, IIRC), but the actual performance difference was fairly small. In fact, on the track the performance difference between my 3.2 and my friend's 987.2 DFI 3.4 was small enough to be immaterial.

The elephant in the room on these cars is the IMS bearing, but both the 2006 late M96 and M97 have the same (updated) IMS bearing.

:lol: Nothing, nothing at all... :lol:

Typical porsche marketing, splitting hairs for their consumer base who split hairs. I see the same with the current gen. I've driven more than once, the 2013+ boxster, cayman, S or GTS, did not see a difference. In fact, with the slight weight add, the 911 base 3.4 felt the same as well. That's a hp range from 315 to 350. My 315 feels very strong - to me. :D

Do all 2006 987S 3.2's have the same IMS bearing as the 3.4? Is it strictly the 2005's with the weaker (?) older version?

Yes, all 2006s have the upgraded bearing, and later 2005s do, too. The production switch over date was in all likelihood Feb 2005, which is the cutoff for eligibility in the class action settlement.
