I know this car is from a reputable dealer, what should i be looking out for and what do you think its worth paying?

Nice spec car that. GT silver and blue is a great combo.

Over-revs and the condition of the ceramic brakes would be the two main things I would check out on that car. Assuming it has a proper history too.

It might not be important to you but it doesn't have heated seats. That would be a non starter for me. I've had four Porsches now and three of them were convertibles. Only one had heated seats, it was the last cab I owned but now I'd never have one without. If you've never had them it's not an issue but when you have they are a must have in my opinion. I even wanted them in my current coupe!

Wow you bought without viewing or test driving? I did it once and on a private sale but it's a big risk. I was out of the country so I had no choice if I wanted to get the car.

Well good luck, I'm sure the car will be in great condition. It might be worth taking it to Porsche to get a free health inspection. You can then go back to them if there are any issues whilst your warranty is still valid.

The 997 Turbo is epic!
