Thsi car looks quite decent in terms of options.

Are there any obvious options missing that are nice/vital to have?

Perfect. I would only choose a GT2 over this. :-)

Front lift?

I've had it on both Gen2 cars I've had and found it pretty near essential for everyday life. The front splinter is lower and more rigid than Gen1.

Lovely car though regardless!

I think I'd prefer blue harnesses smile

Was looking at the car myself over the past few days. Absolutely love that colour - the hue would help melt the snow round here!!

I'd want it as a daily so would personally need the lift as speed bumps a plenty on the way to work. Aside from that all good.

Not much Gen2 option on the PUCL so get involved!

Cheers

IMO. At this price it has to many miles, and no PCCBs.

Front lift is pretty essential these days, sports chrono and cruise control( to stop the speed running away with you )
Very exclusive colour for a gen2

Not everyone wants pccb, can give you a few frights when cold!

Not sure I could live with that bold colour on a day to day basis (mileage suggests it is relatively well used) - great at car events & such.

Mileage a tad high for a GT3, and I'd personally want the pccbs, but the colour does look stunning and it is an OPC sale. However, at this time of year, and with the new model GT3 about to be launched, there must be room for some movement.

Lot of money for a car that may require a new clutch and a diff rebuild.

OPC warranty would surely deal with the diff rebuild?

Not any more than they'd do the clutch (on the premise that Porsche considers the diff to be 'in spec' at >8 lbs torque) which to a normal human being, more often than not means it's fked.

Not that I'm bitter, you understand.

I am glad someone else out there has had the same experiences as me with PCCBs and cold.

lots of naysayers on my turbo log frown

I've done 40k mls on pccbs and never had an issue from cold. But, when cold and wet, it's best to dab the pedal to clear the water first.
