Default What to get?

Pretty new here, but basically looking for a 991 PDK coupe. Have had a couple Porsche's prior: 1988 911 & a 2002 911. Both manual... Just sold my Aston Martin DB7, and want to get a newer PDK. Don't really want to spend months looking, not to nitnoid about particular options, etc. I think I want a 2012-2015 model, can spend around $60k tops. The white car shown below has "minor damage" on Carfax. Another one that looks good is: Blue 911
And this: Silver 911
Any reason not to get a 2012?
Don't want any black or red... Our farm is on a gravel road...

I have a friend with the same colors, but black wheels and coco mats. I actually like the car in person. The actual interior blue in person looked darker than those pics. Car sold very quick.

I would go with the blue one. It's an "S" and the others have a plastic interior. There is an issue with the plastic door panels warping, not an issue with leather.
It seems to have lots of nice options like ventilated seats, PDLS, and entry & drive.
Would definitely want to see a carfax and get a PPI. Wheels are not the originals.

The blue car is at an Autonation dealer in Florida. Good carfax. How would I go about getting a PPI done there? I'm in the Seattle region.

go into the regional forums and ask for a recommendation on a good shop that does PPI's . Arrange with the dealership for date to get the inspection done.

No those are 2 different cars. The one you were asking about had 5.4K miles on it.

That's a pretty good deal. Nice color and options. You can always get the PSE and sport design steering wheel added later. Good luck.

Yeah, that was a guards red colored one with simple but nice options. If only it was a manual.

If you found a CPO car with a decent price, decent mileage and most of the options you wanted, that had been backed into in a parking lot with the below work required to repair, would it deter you? And if not, how much less would you pay than the exact same car with no damage reported to CARFAX?

I would buy, not an expert on car pricing though so can't tell you how much you can shave off.

This is peanuts. Well, not quite, but no structural damage to the car. I would probably pay 1k+repair less than an immaculate one.
