Maybe not the sharpest pencil in the box, but I went with a 2016 and CPO to 11/22 ( next guy gets lots of warranty time) . Net price diff was $12K. In the end the 2015 is the better "deal" but I wanted the least likelihood of having to go through the back and fourth with Porsche on fixing an issue. My understanding is there are still multiple steps to go through before you'd get the full top end update and at least a month without the car. Admittedly - thats just silly thinking as the likelihood of an issue with the 2015 is very very low.
I pick it up Wednesday and at that point I no longer care about value. I'm gonna drive it and when I get my shot at a .2 gT3 my '16 will be worth whatever its worth.
Thanks Guys !

I would like to know how Porsche of Nashville is/was selling a 2016 CPO GT3 for $125K?! Hell, how so for that CPO 2015 GT3? Assuming the miles were under 15K, those are dirt cheap prices for a GT3. I just did a search on Cars.com and the cheapest CPO 2015 GT3 is still in the $140K range. Do I need to call up Porsche of Nashville? LOL!

Manheim just sold a 2015 with 10K plus miles for $141 @ auction. Good deal for OP!

My 2016 is for sale
Interested in opinions - all other things being equal -
I'm buying a GT3 in the next month or so. Quick question. Go with the 2015 and if the misfire issue happens just have it fixed under warranty and move on OR pay $15 -$20K more and get a 2016 with the updated heads etc. Hopefully avoid the issue and hope it retains the $20K differential when I trade in 18 months from now on .2?
Thanks
