GTS package?!?! Complete and utter BS. It is a 2012.5, which came out YEARS before the GTS did. And, of course, it is not a GTS and has no such package.



I am not aware of Porsche providing a 3M protective wrap - maybe the previous owner did this through an independent or the dealership did this, but not Porsche, right? Also NOT fully loaded. Options list isn't bad - very performance oriented - but certainly NOT fully loaded or anywhere close.



Claiming a GTS package is a big fail. I mean, if it has the power kit, maybe....

This is not technically necessarily true. There can be a gap between the original 4 year warranty and the start of the 2 year CPO. Or multiple CPO "refreshes". If the person bought it with fresh CPO this week...

Unlikely, of course.

Oh no, the Lime Gold C2S popped back up on CARMAX. Still treading water at $73k, but it's in Irvine, CA now.

True. So right now anything older than a 2009 cannot be CPO'd.

Correct. As you guys may know, I just bought a 2012.5. It was already out of warranty. The CPO started when I paid. Well, if I sell it now, technically the next owner will have almost two years

"Car is certified from Porsche and has a two year 100k mile warranty which starts next month when factory warranty is complete."
Seller is using future tense for the CPO coverage to begin, which can only happen if the car is currently under the original warranty period. Considering when the original warranty was punched, that can't be true at this time.

My guess is the seller originally listed it in early 2016, then pulled the listing. Relisted it this year, but never changed to ad copy.

My 2 cents, and I'll stop beating the dead horse.

How did I do for my 1st ever contribution?
Bemo, thanks for the post! We need more.

Presentation and layout = A++ (nice job!!)

"Hotness of deal" = C

Build of listed vehicle = C

No a fan of airstrips. We like dash warts

FYI: The CPO must be activated within the 2 year period after the initial 4 year factory warranty. Activated or renewed during that window will start a NEW 2 year CPO.

Right now, anything older than a 2009 can no longer be CPO'd.

That would probably make sense.

EDIT: Now I would be questioning if it still has 36k miles on it, too...
