Used Purchase Advice 2018 GTS.
New to Porsche. I have a chance to pick one up for a smoking deal. Is there anything I need to be aware of with the 2018 models? Any way to gauge how it will hold value in the short and long term?
Also, how are the manual alcantera seats for 2-3 hour drives?
Thanks!

My 2018 Carrera 4 GTS had its two year, 11, 000 mile service, this morning. No issues. The 2018 models have already taken their big hit so you are looking at what I would call a pretty good investment. Check the multitude of 2017—18 YouTube videos reviewing the GTS. All the praise for this model is impressive and it is nearly always called in "The Sweet Spot" in the Porsche lineup. I have the 18-way sport seats and they are most comfortable.

OP: Describe your "smoking deal" and we can add our .02. Otherwise, it sounds like you have Sport Plus seats? Post the Build Sheet or options, etc.

My .2 GTS with 18-way seats is way more comfortable than my F80 M3 competition w/ leather seats. I can definitely drive this for hours without issues. For me, the 18-way is >>>> than the 4-way, and that's what steered me away from some of the 911T on my dealer lots.
