A 2001 Carrera cab. Midnight blue w/ Savannah beige int. 6 spd, 25K mi, with a hard top. It has the woodgrain trim option but the owner wanted to go carbon fiber so he started stripping the veneer, got 1/2 way thru, and quit. The dealership he traded it in to didn't want to take the time to address it, so I picked it up. The big problem is he got about 1/2 way thru on every piece of wood. Not sure if I'll track down wood replacements, replace with beige & black parts, or sand & paint the existing parts. Should keep me busy for a bit. Looks like the exterior will polish up nice.

I'm having trouble decoding the VIN for options but the tag in the trunk has a bunch. Tried the decoder in past threads but it says the car is unavailable.

Here's the VIN in case someone can decode it: WP0CA29911S650596

Here are a few pics.
