The Touring PTS color market is through the roof. I know because I just paid through the roof to get into the nicest Porsche I have ever driven. (I have owned 997.1 turbo, 991.2 CS-Mex Blue, 991.2 Targa 4s-Viper Green and I own a 94 3.6 Turbo). There is something diff. about these cars. The drive, the understated/sleeper look etc. I have a feeling these cars stay high, especially PTS due to the overall limited production numbers and the fact that I believe the 992 Tourings are being offered PDK. Stay tuned but super happy with my purchase.
You mentioned there's something different, and I agree with you. I posted this in a different Thread but thought you might enjoy it given your recent investment in that beautiful car!
Not sure if you like him, but he has Aston's, Ferrari's, McLarens so he's qualified to speak on the subject, not to mention DD the Touring.
Also, if you follow The Drive Nation Podcast, both of the hosts, who I believe drove in LeMans, named the Touring to their Top 5 cars of all time. Give it a listen. Drive Nation All-Time Dream 5 car garage
I think the other way to look at it is to buy one now with 4 yr warranty left. Drive it hard and if motor breaks you get a replacement. For this reason Seems like .1 is popular with the track rats.

Talk me out of this one? Tracked, rev range 4 over rev with 1 ignition. No CPO... I'm on the verge of buying, salesman said someone just stepped in front of me on it.. Thoughts? Move on?

i've seen cleaner examples for that price. the buttons on the center console look rough. driver seat bolster is worn. vinyls look dumb and would have to be removed. red interior + yellow brakes seems like an odd choice.
i probably would offer mid-high 150s.
if it was in better condition with platinum stitch i'd go with his asking price though.

It has PPF front clip, but you are right about those minor details... They said the stickers can be removed. I'd be switching the wheel to leather.
I want it, but the track time on those brakes worry me along with the over rev 4... I'd walk away from this car 9 out of 10 times, but I just can't find a manual PCCB LWBS car anywhere.

I would think for $163k it could get you more than this. A 10k miles track rat with over revs? The rotors look like they are closer to the end of their life rather than the beginning. The over revs depend on how long ago they occurred.
I wouldn’t let the salesman or the lack of supply push you into a possibly irrational purchase. Sales people pretty much always play the game of saying that someone else is interested in the car and they might make an offer.
