Depends on how / where you use it.

Easy enough to replace front lip if scraped. I have a steep entrance to garage. FAL was necessary.

I do understand what happened to the R but this is not an R. I appreciate any wisdom on this.

Also - The porsche decal that runs the length of the car over both doors - is it applied prior to top coat or is that removable.

I really appreciate any comments

Thanks
Think you can shop, and what’s the full spec? No PCCB’s would be a fail for me, and 4K miles you can do better. A Touring is a GT3 minus a wing, and buyers have made the hype. With that sad if it appeals to you, and you like the spec go for it. Personally, I wouldn’t pay over on a used GT3.

I have been looking for a friend of mine and there are only a handful for sale. If you want a Touring you don't have many to choose from. All the ones I have seen have been over sticker. I prefer the steel brakes for the street.

Very few cars put a smile on my face. The Touring is one of them. Go for it. You will not regret it.

Buyers made the hype because, there are more of them than sellers.
not the case for a winged car.
13k is not much given current market conditions. I wouldn’t sell mine for 30 k over. It is not just a GT3 without a wing. It is a classic 911 shaped car that happened to sing the 9000 tune on any curved road.
OP: Trade what you have, you will never look back.

I hear you and I actually like the car. Had a new spec for MSRP ......my daily will always be a SUV, and my sports cars are fun weekend cars/track. My MSRP car went to a person that would use it more than me. I always say buy what you like and don’t ask others what you should pay as your wallet will vote.

Congrats!! Love the touring in that color. I agree about removing the side stripes. Looks a little busy with the red stripe wheel and side stripes together.

Alright guys, I have a 2019 Touring I took delivery of in April and has now 700 miles. It has just a few options - FAL, big tank, red belts, then I replaced the 4 Way seats with 18 Ways with red stitching, added red/black houndstooth fabric seat back centers, red/black Cocomats to dress up the interior a little, front of car has 3M Pro PPF, Soul center muffler bypass (OEM center goes w/ car or I can put the OEM center back onto the car and keep the Soul). Out of my three 991.2 cars, I need to sell one so it's down to the Touring or the RS. Someone please make me a fair offer so I won't have to decide which one to let go.




The Touring actually sits 3/4" lower than the RS (both cars have the front spring perches lowered all the way) so it looks just as agreesive as the RS, even w/o a wing and narrower.
