Longtime 944 guy here, as my first car was an 84'. After selling my 87' (had 3 944s throughout college) about 10 years ago, I hadn't been back in a P Car since. Obviously I always wanted a 911, but never really had the means. Finally after some time... I put a deposit on a 2012 991 C2S! I couldn't be more excited!
Debating on which 911 to get has been quite a journey, and I think I found the right one for me. I put the specs below, so let me know what you think.
I'm local in the Dallas area, so am doing the deal with RAC Performance. Seen mixed reviews here on Rennlist, but so far they have been great to deal with. They are installing a new clutch, performing a full service, and replacing the front bumper as it has some deep scratches and a small ding included in the sales price. I did notice the side view mirrors are tinged brown, which indicates the auto dim material has seeped out, but they are still usable.
The deal should be done early next week, and since I'm in the process of moving, I will most likely pick up the car the week of the 10th. Hope to get a lot of pics and vids of my journey to share with everyone!
Back in 14' I got to attend the concours d'elegance at Pebble Beach (bucket list). We stayed in Monterrey and had a really nice time, but had crap rental. I plan on going back to Big Sur with my wife and son, and have the 911 shipped over to enjoy it on those amazing roads.
I look forward to joining the community again! Thanks for reading.
Nice car. I was looking at RAC cars and ultimately decided I wanted a CPOd car. Bought a 991.1 this past week myself. How long has this car been with them?
on a separate note, I had a tough time trying to find a 991.1 cpo’d car with low miles that were reasonable in price. I am by no means an expert but initial thought is 5 years from now these will start appreciating - only a matter of time. Clearly this is. a debated topic, but early signs seems to be positive.
congratulations!

nice spec. It’s only been there a week or so as far as I’m aware. I was specifically looking for a 7speed manual c2s. Non black, as my last 3 cars have been black and I’m sick of the upkeep.

Awesome feedback thanks! It was my first 991 drive experience and loved it. The sport exhaust sound is killer.
im coming out of a f06 m6 and the power difference is significant but the c2s is so much more fun to drive. Can’t wait to get a track day in.

Super Build. You will love it. I also have a white 911 2013 with PSE and manual transmission. I drove 350 miles this weekend around Vermont.
The sound is amazing.
Drive it in good health. Post lots of pictures.
