Both nice (obviously)
Rec CPO.
Silver interior same as your prior car.
Happen to like white w red interior on the 991tt.
As you know, these cars tend to be mileage sensitive.
You change cars so frequently... go white. Something different for you.
-lower mileage
-Less money
-cool color combo

Read again regarding PDCC. Maybe clean your glasses or check your eyes. Silver has it. I don't mind 14. Always a pleasure reading your posts.

I agree with your comments but having a hard time pulling the trigger on the white. The silver car is a much better build (182 MSRP), notwithstanding the 14 way seats. The white car is barely 10% off the MSRP, although with CPO so a bit over 10% off plus CPO cost. But only 2K miles.

Burm is really nice and while I like the color combo, I think I might get sick of it. Silver would be a change for me.. I usually get any color as longs as its black...

And the silver car is much closer.

Silver car is a better build but it seems a little pricey given the mileage and lack of CPO? See if you can get CPO included in the price--10k miles for a 2017 is a decent amount of driving (I'm admittedly biased as the 2014 TTS I purchased earlier this year had 10k miles).

Guess what, they called today and asked if we throw in CPO will you buy it.... I said nope.

Patience grasshopper....

PS - car in service since April 16 and traded in June 17 and new TTS ordered. So 15 months or 660 miles per month. Not that bad but 10K is 10K. Car is clean tho.

Sometimes lower mileage gets applied in MUCH harsher environments i.e. tracks.
I'd check with previous owner if permitted. Highway cruising miles are like baby's kisses.

Sounds like you are in the driver's seat to negotiating end pricing, should you chose to proceed.

They were very open and printed out the CPO internal billing sheet (not CPO checklist which was also provided) so getting prior service history is prob doable. Its the same as when you bring car for service and lists all the work done for CPO. Not worth too much but no big items needed to bring to CPO level.

At inspection, this car did not look like a track car at all. Too clean... I've been to the track many times and the usual signs were no where to be found. Legend goes guy in his late 50's was previous owner with TTS inbound. I almost said older guy but I'm not far behind.. I will certainly ask for DME and prior service history if I proceed.

Thanks!

Silver. It has PDCC and the white one does not. The only thing I wish my car has but doesn't is PDCC. The miles difference doesn't matter if the car is in excellent condition.

The first step is admission.

It's a lot cheaper than marriage/divorce cycles though.
