But no, I don't usually buy new. Doesn't make me wish more sales guys and 911 buyers did a "better" (imho of course) job specc'ing cars. Like the slew of 991.2 base 911's where they ponied up for PDK but didn't check Sport Chrono, a deal-breaker on any .2 I would consider.

Still it is a matter of priority when a new owner specs his/her car. When the base price of the car is reaching six figures, we are all careful to add the options. Kudos to new owners like the hurricane cars who are willing to take a bath for the rest of us.

Eduardo's car, which is a similar build, although slightly cheaper (basically the cost of the PDK), was listed at $99k and sold in a few days. It being a manual may have helped it find a home quickly. Yours, however, has a CPO and 18-ways, but is red, which is typically less desirable. A lot of people won't consider a red car.
I would list it at $99k and see what happens. Something like that probably retails for $105k or so; $98k is a good private party price, with $91k being trade in, according to KBB.
Or, you could run a search on cars.com, see what similar builds are selling for at dealers, knock 5-7% off, and go from there. The cheapest one in the country is $99k, with the average being closer to $108k.
Also, list it in a few places, not just on RL. There is a lot more exposure at a place like Cars.com or AT than Rennlist.

I have PDCC, FAL, 18 ways, carbon interior and a CPO compared to Eduardo’s car which is probably the closest that I’ve seen spec wise. I feel my options are a little more desirable? I always see people wanting cars with no sunroof. The color and PDK are always going to be a toss up. Red is definitely has a smaller buyer pool than your standard white, silver, black which does limit me some.
The extras can can be sold with or without the car so I’m not really factoring that in to the equation right now.

I agree with you on the red seat belts, white gauges and power steering plus. I don't think I'll give up PDCC and PDLS for full leather. But I agree that SC is a must for any PDK, .1 or .2.

I haven’t seen a car as highly specced as mine selling recently.

Looks great. I personally like GR color. Does adding Techart springs affect PASM? The drop is gorgeous

thx for the help

I didn't want GR until I saw one in person. It really is a great and classic Porsche color. Techart springs does not affect PASM/PDCC or the FAL. The Techart springs gets you 10ish mm lower than the SPASM springs - about the height of GT3s.

It does look very good.
Thinking of getting the SPASM dropped a touch on my Carrera T...

On manual cars, you lose the auto-blip on downshift, which some love and others not-so-much. Not nearly as big of an issue on manual cars.
Dynamic engine mounts are great, but I don't think you would say to yourself nearly every day "I wish I had dynamic engine mounts!"... I however would be saying every day "I wish I had Sport Plus PDK mode!" ;-)

Thinking of letting go of my GTS cab
Hello RL brethren:
Due to lack of use, i am seriously considering putting up my '15 GTS Cab for sale. 11,300 miles. Wondering what the number for this looks like - i have a trade in number towards an E63 but unsure if I want to go back to that even though i love the torque and more functionality of a sedan. This is not my daily driver. (I left an E63 for my 911 thinking I would use it more. Sadly its the opposite). The seasonality of this car is not in my favor I understand. Any guesses what numbers would look like if i sold privately vs. dealer?
Thank you!
