Hi I am new on here and new to buying my first Porsch 911 997.2 4s got this car and have 14 days to decide weather am keeping it or not from a garage who are selling.Ticks all boxes for me,it’s got low miles at 19.500 miles and been dry stored for 4 years. They have put it through a major Sevice and everything looks good. I took it to porcshe for an 111 point check and looks ok apart from the over Rev data. Is this somet to worry about? Am paying a premium for this car and just wanna make sure am buying the right car,but am just little confused as I don’t totally understand these over revs. Is this data somet to be alarmed by or should I just go for it. Engine sounds ok and runs. Am hoping some1 can shed a bit of light on this data sheet
Thanks

Sorry,I have had this check done at porcshe myself but they won’t warrant the car as it’s got range 4/5 on data sheet. So from the garage they will give me 3 months warranty. I see I miss Rev on 5. And see a lot on 4,so does that mean they have over Rev’Ed it a lot in from 4th gear,don’t quite understand

Thanks for your inputs.So annoying as I have it in garage and ticks all the boxes what Av been looking for,low mileage clean,a lot of good extras and then the over data let’s it down at the end,what a shame. Like u say I might struggle to sell just because of the data,which worries me,gutted,feeling like am gonna have to give it back 🤦‍♂️

Thanks for all your input guys,spoke to a few knowledgeable people on this,and said this could be an error on 5 and might not be a true recording. Porcshe seem to shoot there self in foot with the recording data as a lot of other manufacturers don’t have this Ecu stored data and if they did there probably be a lot of cars with all sort of readings. So decided to keep car and enjoy it and not let it spoil my experience of my first porcshe. After all was over 100 hours ago if it did happen. So am just gonna go for it and enjoy. Thanks again people really appreciate your input
