The aftermarket condenser would be part of the AC upgrade. The rear decklid in misaligned. The back edge of it is overhanging the rear reflector panel. It is quite apparent in the rear corner (taillight) pictures, especially on the left hand side.

Could be. When I get the car I’ll find the receipt on that upgrade and report back.

The car looks clean, very similar to the one I sold a little while back with more miles.

I think, given the repaint (whole car repainted??) the price isn't far off. If there was no paint damage for a 1 owner in this condition would be probably 15k more.

And yeah, they are slow-isa, wrap these motors out, wakes them up!
I spotted the Carfax flag also, and was told it was because of ash falling on car during a fire in storage wearhouse. The owner elected a repaint because of that. There is another decklid with spoiler included so maybe that’s where the decals are? The aftermarket condenser is part of the a/c upgrade. I can confirm it’s a lot better a/c than what I recall in the old 911’s I owned years ago. Thanks for your input. I’m excited to get to drive an air cooled 911 again.
