Crazy thing is that there's 3x as many 991.1 GT3's available for sale than GTS's.

I'm showing 41 GTS's and 113 GT3's on cars.com.

Overall market, you can probably double that. Still, low # of GTS's. A great last of the NA models

With all the engine drama and potential out of warranty issues, I'd stay away from a GT3 as a long term keeper. Great cars, but Porsche really screwed that one up. The .1 has 3 engine versions. The 2016's being the most current and reliable so far. They were made in 2014, 2015, and 2016.

Nice. Does that include the switch?

If so, is the switch position in a non-PSE car pre-wired? Does the dealer have to add wiring?

The GT3 is also in the cycle of giving back leases, selling after 3 years and right before the new one (orders are being taken).

The new GTS isn't in sight and 3 years isn't up, plus the turbo change.

PDK, SC, PDCC, SPASM, and much more.
This just seems like a great price for a lot of car. Is it the RY that's keeping it from selling, or what? They should all be yellow, IMO.

Yes, includes the switch. On sale at Suncoast now.

Not many people lease a GT3. Never heard of one actually. Makes no sense for that car as the lease payments would eclipse the depreciation.

Yes, it's the color. I like it, but a much harder sell.

I think base cars (non-S, etc) are bought by those who are still in the early phases of 911 obsession. They wouldn't give their right arm for the perfect build like most of us would. People in that stage of obsession typically are still conservative and consider only monochrome colors. They think yellow, red, and orange are for the crazy kids. Just give them a year behind the wheel

Regarding the red accented 991, I would be curious to see the interior and exterior accent lighting Glowing LED's under the car??

Good to know you get the title when you buy the car. Usually the way it works right??

No this car isn't in LA or Miami >> Birmingham, AL.

Or prefer the more "pure" version.
