Yes, I agree with buying the right car and the right color!

My Corvette even has the Z51 performance package, but it doesn't handle as well as the 991.2 Turbo. The Corvette is great, but with a different attitude.

That won’t last long, my wife “had” a Corvette now it belongs to the garage.

@RadarP3C - good find and congrats. I waited patiently for my 2018 TTS and its also Chalk, but with a Bordeaux interior.

Nice color combo, CodyzWorld! Mine is Espresso.

I really lucked up on this find. Right place AND right time.

Funny, my story is similar but with a twist.

Was at my dealer ready to pull the trigger on a 992 4S when my wife saw a 991.2 turbo on the floor and said "at least you're not buying that hideous thing" and voila, a 991.2 added to the stable.

She's only been in it once, life is gooood...

Great Story! Glad you got the 991.2, clearly you made the right choice. My opinion, a lot of people still on the fence with 992 Turbo Model. Not happy with sharing so much thru all the brands especially the interiors. Not saying that it’s bad but when the new ‘22 VW GTI R has a Porsche Electric Razor Shifter, that’s shameful. Again, my opinion. I love my 991.2 Turbo all day, absolutely a pleasure to drive. Enjoy, Jose

Thanks, Jose.

I have no regrets getting the 991.2 over the 992. To me, the rear of the 992 is not as aggressive looking as the 991.2. And I don't care for some of the small changes in the 992's cockpit either. But, of course, I do like the increase of HP in the 992, tho.

A simple tune and exhaust only like I have and you'll be quite a bit quicker than a stock 992!

Then it's only the slightly better handling of the 992 at the limit (on track or way past legal on the roads) that separates them.

I too like the 991.2 TTS styling and especially the interior better than the 992. I hate 992 shifter and the fact you can Not "Bump" shift it like I love to do in my 991.2TTS.
