I plan on keeping mine until I die! I want to be that old man with a high mileage Porsche that he bought new. I'm a little over 35k miles so I have a ways to go. At least they will be fun filled miles!!!!

That is EXACTLY how I feel!
My T will be five years old next week and is a little over 45k miles/smiles!
Have done a few mods with Litchfield Motors and the T is going back there next month for a brake upgrade!
New Apex wheels, just a fixed rear spoiler away from sub 3,000 lbs.
Given my biases, I just don't see anything else in the marketplace that fits my needs and desires better. Currently at 41K. mi.
Your twin sitting in my garage!!! Have had a couple people approach me about selling. Not happening. Made that mistake with my 997 GT3. Not letting this one go...
Your Triplet is sitting in my garage with zero plans on selling it.......ever
I've no plans to part with my T - the 992 T would've been tempting but pricing and specs (and availability) don't work in my favor. Mine goes in for it's 4 year service this weekend and it's been a mostly trouble free experience. I've a 10/100k Fidelity warranty that should guarantee many more miles and smiles.
The base price for a 992 T on the configurator jumped to $125k now. Prices are ridiculous. MSRP for my car was $116k and that included LWBS. The 992 is a lot less of a bargain proposition for sure, but if you want a new one spec’d to your liking, it may be the only option to have a manual and some decent performance options (no PCCB though!). Certainly not a strong enough argument for me to jump out of the 991 T.
Sharkwerks says I should get a new battery soon. Is the Antigravity battery the way to go? Anyone have suggestions on if to go 30, 40 or 60 Ah?
What are you using the car for? If it is just street driving then get a standard battery, why pay 3-4x the cost to save a couple of pounds that you’ll never notice driving on the street? Even if you’re doing occasional track days, what does shaving 30-40lbs really gain you? The Li batteries still have to be replaced every few years, now you are buying batteries that are $1000 instead of $250. Mostly this is an exercise in ego racing.

Love your car, Flasch! And the Marin pics. I went with the 60 Ah antigravity battery to support my sound system. Working great so far, and lost 35lbs. You may be able to use smaller if nothing extra to support.
I will be using the car for competition, but I really just want to weight savings to make up for my cars FAL. Good points though. I found that FCP Euro carries Antigravity batteries, so they will replace them for free. Just a one time extra ~$500.
Thanks for the photos. I have found a Carrera T with 43,000 miles for sale. and a Speed Yellow with 13,000 miles. They are about 7,000 dollars difference.

Buy the one you like the best. You wont be disappointed either way. Love the Cayman R. I have one myself!!!

Your wheels have inspired me!
Are they the Apex VS-5RS Forged Sprint Line wheels?
I have a 2018 991.2 Carrera T.
May I ask what you ordered on your Apex wheels in terms of widths, offsets and PCDs?
