Ive seen Pewter But first time ive seen gold!

First time i personally seen gold i think it would look pretty sweat lowered and some wheels on it imo. There are a whole list of cars for amazing price and low low miles. Don't know how some of these guys looking for cars cant find anything lot more options now then when i was looking a few months back.

There's an old guy that drives a gold one around town here in DFW. He's got ugly chrome wheels on it too.

To be honest I think if people can't find a car they arent looking. I'm not ready to buy and I have found the car I will purchase just browsing autotrader, lol

Hopefully its still for sale in another month or 2

Not that bad imo, it seems rare since that is the first I have seen. It could look sick with darker rims, nice charcoal grill, and roof wrap. I would not be ashamed to rock it, especially if it hit 10's...

That gold car is a pretty good deal assuming it's all clear and in proper running condition. Appears only major options it's missing are pano and distro. Year, mileage, options, and price look to be a good combo. I'd think it will sell fairly easily, especially coming from a Porsche dealership since they should carry decent aftermarket warranties.
