Old Gary still hasn’t sold his one of one 991.2 Endurance Racing edition. Only been like 3 years now. If only he’d drop it to under $300k I’d be all over it.



Seriously, you can get a 911R for less than this.

Good price would be under 75K. Realistically under 80K is fine especially if CPO.

Not trying to sidetrack this thread, but Porsche 911 is the best sports car to buy, for lowest depreciation in this article...

I posted this in a different thread. A different car with similar spec sold at auction for 235k. Apparently there are 3 manuals in the US.

Nice post with pictures, build sheet, and VIN# ...

Like we've said great for future reference. Links soon go dead and all the info gone.

Not to mention, for the casual viewer here, no one is going to take time and click on all these links, including myself ..

Buyer beware post:
https://www.porschenortholmsted.com/...ab2a98hs124606

This car has a clean carfax but an accident listed on autocheck. A friend of mine had it paint metered and the reading were all over the place on the driver side door, roof and rear quarter. Just an FYI.

this actually just happened to me. Negotiated the price on the following Turbo S, clean Carfax, CPO from a reportedly reputable Porsche dealer. I was negotiating this as a non local purchase. They explicitly told me that there was no history of damage to vehicle and other than a couple minor scratches was pristine with amazing records and service history. The day of signing and completing the deal (this past Friday), the business manager decided to call me to tell me that they’ve decided to not certify the vehicle. And they also decided to disclose that the car had previous unibody damage repair completed to the left rear panel/section. They knew this all along (the bought the car back from one of their longtime customers a month after the damage occurred- according to a Porsche GM connection that I have) and strung me along till the final day of purchase. I had already sold my S5 in lieu of purchase and shipping this vehicle. They were unwilling to work out any sort of cost concessions, and basically said take it or leave it, despite the fact I had spent hours working on this transaction, sold my 2018 S5 for below market value to purchase this Porsche. Absolutely no integrity whatsoever. And guess what, the vehicle is still listed on their website for sale without any mention of damage. They just removed it from their CPO inventory list today at least.

Unfortunately even Porsche dealers can’t be trusted these days. My trust level in Porsche has sunk to new lows. I will be addressing this poor experience with Porsche NA

I hope you plan to document this via Google reviews since people really do read them and if they loose a couple customers it would give me at least a little personal satisfaction.

I will, my attempts so far have led me to just sit with my fingers on the keyboard with tears of sadness streaming down my face. I also wanted to write the review after I had completely calmed down from the experience and could formulate more constructive and less vindictive comments. I was really looking forward to this car. Had the exact options I wanted except Burmester and sport steering wheel. The red bicolor interior was making my heart race. So sad, and frustrating. But at the end of the day it’s just a car, as much as I very much enjoy good cars.

Just stick to the facts, as in your previous post. I read too many reviews that appear to be vindictive for petty reasons but you have a very valid reason that would affect where I did business.
