Too bad the 14's didn't have backup cameras. I'll have to remember that if / when I want to upgrade from mine.
My loaded 2014 has the factory back up camera.

I paid $120k for mine from a Ferrari deal with 8500 miles 3 months ago.

Sorry... I was going off what poster in post #2 said, thinking he meant 14's didn't have them

Good to know the loaded 14's did. Thanks

I enjoy rowing through the gears in my 911C2S. A little more power would be great but it’s still fun.

There's no such thing as too much power IMHO. Especially in these cars. They drive so easy down low and only wick it up if you want to.

It's going to be not just a little more, it's going to be a Lot more than the c2s (depending on year). You will LOVE it!!

Too fast? No... The standard mode keeps the car at an easy pace and has docile shifting. It is exceptionally comfortable when driven on the highways at a normal pace. Around town and in traffic I like the sport mode as it puts the car in a more agile mode without it becoming too aggressive. Then, when you want to really get after it, the Sport Plus mode turns the car into a monster!

These cars are drivable under a broad range of conditions and driving styles.

You will not regret purchasing this car if you like the colors.

Enjoy!

Is the op trading a car in? If so this has to be considered. Often a good deal is muddied by a crappy trade in value. This is what kept happening to me. Decent price on the car and crappy trade in value making the deal suck.

Saw this car. Very nice but look at the locations it was in. I personally don’t think the car is worth the money. Never had XPEL so lots of road rash your not seeing. Good Luck if you buy it OP. Also the driver seat is really worn.

Love the car. I have a 2014 TTS in GT Silver with Espresso and Luxor beige interior. I love the all espresso interior with the GT Silver. My car has been flawless, now has 26K miles and is a dream to drive. You will love it.

Just the best car I have ever owned, period. Controlling the modes is the key on speed needed.

It may not have the back up camera but I'm sure it has the park distance control and if that fails you still have a neck to turn your head I got really used to the camera on my other cars but the RS quickly reminded me that I don't really need the camera after all

Reading this made me think of this ad I read a year ago that made me cry reading it.

So I think if you like the car don't let not having a back up camera deter you from buying it. There things much worse like this Corolla.

It's all been discussed in posted above after my original post.

I stood / stand corrected, as I was going off what someone else said.
