Hard to guide you on that. If you track the car it's a rhetorical question. If it's mostly a DD then it's preference. You will never use the extra performance on the street but depending on your options you may loose a lot of comfort/convenience. If it's a viagra substitute then flip a coin. We don't know you so advice on this meaningless.

 

If you're not going to track it, buy a nicely sport performance optioned C2S and get the PowerKit.

 

That's funny. I was just on the configurator messing around today. I'm pretty sure my wife would kick me out of the house, so I closed it before she saw me. If it were me, I'd wait for the second model year. On the bright side, I'm sure it's a lot easier to get an allocation these days.

 

This one is sitting at a stealership right now! The only option I wanted that this one doesn't have is the front-end lift.

 

How much $ are they asking?

 

Sticker is $155K, still waiting to hear their bottom line price.

 

So did Porsche buy it back after the engine replacement? Any markup? Used? CPO'd?

 

New, 20 miles. New 2015 engine.

 

If it's not just a weekend car I think the front end lift is a must have option.

 

Possibly, but I recently called two dealers I have bought Porsches from and both told me no way to get a GT3 at this point.

 

Sounds like a good deal.

 

front end lift on a GT3 is a must have unless you have an endless supply of front spoiler lips

 

+1 if you find one, and you want one, get it.

 

you will take the depreciation hit on your C2S, but you will be buying a great car. However only time will tell how the future market will view the 2014's with the replacement engines ... so if you buy it keep it for a LONG time.

Also, dont take any sh*t from the dealer its invoice < your $$'s <= MSRP
