Moving to 991- opinions on this car please?
 

Hi all- I've decided to move on from my 997.2 C4S manual cabrio and try to find a good 991 coupe to replace it. Saw this one that checks a lot of boxes for me, other than it shows 3 prior owners. I like the low miles, CPO, manual, and the packages. The wheels look unusual to me, and I can't get them to correspond to the original build sheet on the car. Anyone know what they are? All opinions on this vehicle would be welcome before I start talking to the dealer- I'm in LA, so seeing in person would be difficult. I know the 997 very well, but just learning about the 991 (hoping I can do some of the maintenance work myself so checking into that, too). Thanks!

Wheels are Sport Technos. I love mine. They are a half inch wider than most of the other OEM wheels. Appears they swapped them out as it lists Carrera Classics on the build sheet.

Car looks great. Nice build.

Nice car!

The wheels are the Porsche 20" Sport Techno wheels.

I would ask for a DME report if you haven't seen one, especially with 3 POs.
Yes, the Sport Technos were my favorites but they are a little heavier I think. They were a couple $thou extra IIRC.
That's a lot of red but a nice build if you like it. I know the full beige dashes caused a lot of glare - not sure about the red.
Nice looking car.

It's a beautiful car but at least three prior owners did not consider it a "keeper." That would give me pause but not necessarily a deal-breaker. Here in Los Angeles, there are so many beautiful cars and so many wealthy, fickle owners that picking up a used 991 with low miles is not difficult. Just a thought to consider.

Good call on the DME report- I know that dealers have to run them anyway for the CPO process, so I'll take a look. Digging up service records can be tough, though, but I'll be trying.

I couldn't find a normal build sheet either, but I did come up with this. Having sold a 14 C4S earlier this year myself, but with 3x the miles compensated a little by a $140k sticker, I would still have expected this one to be listed several thousand cheaper. But I haven't kept my eye on the market since January. In any case, here's the pseudo sticker.

Looks nice. The number of PO's doesn't really matter. I'd rather buy a car with three PO's who took care of it than a car with one PO who didn't.

thanks guys- like all desireable configurations, this one went fast. Sold but still listed on their website :/

Wurd

Bummer. Keep hunting!!!

Someone changed from Carrera Classics to Sport Technos.

better off
 

That car had several mark's against it red interior, no sunroof delete, 3 owners no problem paying top dollar but expect a great car.

That's funny- I thought the red interior was stunning in the white car... I like black, too, but the red blew me away, as did the aerokit and upgraded wheels although it did have strikes against it. I'm pretty price insensitive if I can find just what I want and not pay new car retail.
It wasn't meant to be.. the search continues (which is half of the fun anyway)
