New 965 (Only 71K miles) 900

Spook,

Thanks. I have all the owner records and the original servicing dealership shared all the records. The T-belt was changed at 60K (records are stamped, and the sticker is on the T-belt cover). Car is really a good find. I guess the only reason I hessitate to switch from dino is that the car is doing so good on it. However, I will likely heed what seems to be the Brickboard concensus and go synthetic at the next oil change.

The lumbar support has me perplexed. The knob simply is not there. The driver's side has it, the original window sticker says both front seats should have adjustable lumbar support, and the owner's manual mentions it...my wife suggested that the seat cover was replaced and whoever did it simply did not bother (or forgot) to reattach the knob. However, both seats show the same amount of wear (which is consistent with the back seat) and the pass seatback cover does not even have a hole on it for the lumbar support. The car is truly one owner and has never been in an accident. I suppose I will contact the previous owner.

Last, I am curious as to why you say "should last 200K miles..." I am hoping for at least that much.

Take care!
