That 997 is a crazy deal so long as it doesn't have accident history

I doubt back in 2005 Porsche offers ceramic brake package for C2S. It was only Turbo S and GT2/3 that have the option to upgrade if I remember correctly.
edit: However it has yellow and 6 pistons caliper on the first pictures which indicate it's ceramic brake package. Regardless it's a good buy for sure. You can always resell the ceramic brake package for $$ and spend half of them to put on regular brake which is good enough for C2S anyways. Or just be a baller driving it around, those should last 100k km. | Lol, yeah I wasn't confusing carbon rotors with ceramic brake pads, thanks. 
The yellow calipers are a dead giveaway.

Bottom of passenger door is wavy? | Did some searching and is fake ad. Original ad maybe in Ontario, $30K which is still low but might have some accident history.

Don't have a craiglist posting because it's a private through a Chinese website ( http://www.vanpeople.com/c/1463794.html)
What do you guys think of a 2012 Audi A5 S-line, 82000km, white on black for $20,000? Has some side damage that needs to be fixed for ~750$.
Thanks

Don't the stock wheels come with pins so you can't do that anyway, albeit it they are removable.

If I remember correctly, the car has a rebuilt status, and he paid only maybe $3000 - 3500 for it.
