Yea, the 991.2 GTS is pretty darn nice. Enjoy. And welcome.

Why do you think it was so cheap?

Thank you!

Miles, really. The average 2017 GTS for sale had sub 15k miles. Also, options may have something to do with it. This car doesn't have RAS, PDCC, PASM+, PDLS+, or PP+. It's a basic car more or less, and I love it.

OH and I almost forgot, she's got the rear wiper. Best option ever!!

Terrific ride! As a Racing Yellow owner, Lava Orange is my second favorite GTS color. Congrats on scoring such a find!

Congrats! Great find and fantastic spec. Rear wiper has got to be super rare for a GTS too.
I like the average speed

Congrats! Given CPO is unlimited mileage now I'd say pile on as many miles as you possibly can before it expires

Wait till it warms up and you can open it up. It will dig in, rear up and GO!

Best of luck.

Thank you to all, I'm really enjoying this car. I'm glad the seats broke in to my *larger* size. The trip home was a tad uncomfortable. But since I've already put 1500 miles on the car, I never want to get out of it now.

I'm a huge fan of that colour (Canadian spelling )! And the spec you've got is perfect for your first Porsche. Enjoy.

Indeed, and impressive gas-mileage at that average speed.
