Default Trade 2013 base to 2011S

Would you guys trade a 2013 base 911 with pse/10k miles for a 2011 911S with 8K asking 69k? My 13 is cpo'd and I would have to negotiate a CPO on the 2011. Is it worth the change to the 911S?

Trading to a 997 from a 991 would be a rare occurrence. I find my 991 to be superior to my 997.2 in every way I can think to measure. Some may take issue with the steering, but to me it is a non issue.....Chris

Pretty sure in real world tests, the 991 Carrera is faster than the 997 Carrera S despite having less HP on paper. Most folks who have had both also believe the 991 is worlds ahead in handling and amenities. A good salesman (also longtime local PCA member) told me to buy the newest 911 you can afford.

Kind of a retrograde move to say the least.

Never. If you need the "S", just buy an "S" from the parts dept and put on your car. Sure it will be a bit of a pose, but 1) you will save $$ 2) still have the better car and 3) you will no longer need an "S".
