EXTERIOR 
This vehicle is a show stopper. The vibrant PTS RS Orange is a real eye-catcher and is visually striking in person. It’s completely original, with original paint all around. The front bumper had been repainted at one point during a previous ownership, but is very hard to tell. 
It’s equipped with a set of original GT2 side skirts, a GT2 style front lip spoiler and original rear Turbo wing. The rear wing is powered by an upgraded electric system (no more hydraulic problems) that works flawlessly. 
The convertible top functions correctly with no current defects mechanically. The canvas top was replaced a few months ago with a brand new German canvas. 
Front Porsche badge is a custom orange and silver and the rear Turbo emblem is “ghosted” in RS orange for a nice detail. 
The factory 19” Turbo wheels have been completely refinished for a perfect appearance and wrapped in new Michelin rubber that has seen less than 50 miles total driving. 
Overall this is an outstanding 911 Turbo example. Every power function is working and the vehicle drives like a dream. Don’t let the mileage fool you, the condition does not reflect the mileage. We are more than confident in this vehicle’s performance and appearance.
