It also has the following performance mods all installed and warrantied by Jack Daniels Porsche:
GIAC Tune
Werks1 Carbon Fiber Airbox
Tubi Sport exhaust with 200 cell cats
GT3 throttle body
IPD 82mm intake plenum
Champion Motorsport (H&R) springs

I also added these mods:
Clear sidemarkers
Side and rear windows tinted 35%
Hardwired for V1 with Mirror attachment point
Tooki Bluetooth module
XPEL headlight protection on headlights, blinkers and fog lights
The painted front lip spoiler from the factory got chewed up and was replaced with a painted Porsche Aerokit front lip spoiler (as pictured above)
I had Eric @ Bumperplugs.com paint the center console body color. This is a factory option, but it didn’t come that way from the factory. I also replaced the chrome Turbo badge with a satin black Turbo badge from bumperplugs.

Buying a new house and need to downsize the toys, I know I'll regret selling this car down the road, but such is life...

Just unloaded an '08 Turbo Cab and went through the same process. Ours had more miles, but my guess is that your trade value would be in the $80k-$90k range (I know, that sucks). Private party I would ask maybe $105k, but you might not get full asking price.

I am looking for a TT but any mods at least for me, deal killer. Looking for stock unmolested car.

It sold in one day after listing it for sale on 6speedonline.com

I had aftermarket red LED tail lights but the factory option was red tail lights and that is how the car was sold.

My '09 midnight blue cab has 15k miles and stickered for ~165K. Well sorted car with lots of excellent options. Pristine, too.

Dealer told me yesterday ... that the car was worth "Maybe 88,000". I was not amused. IMO car is worth $100K+. But, we all think our crap is worth more than it is. Of course, it is worth what someone will pay for it, eh.

(still think it's worht $110K+ ... )

FYI: Average auction price for an 09 TT cab with low mileage is 97k ...he may discount yours a little but not another $9000.
