HOT FOR SALE: Pick of the Week 991
Burning Brakes
I have base with apr 93 and have only had one incident on the track. First lap I got on the gas too much and the new found power combined with me having the steering wheel cranked way too far caused spin. The rest of the weekend all was well with new found repspect for the the low end torque bump. Will 315's fit on our rims if we have 305's now?

This was my car. If you are looking for a near perfect .1S this is it. Recent 4 yr major service, new tires and battery, PPF. Engine uses zero oil, It’s no longer mine so I have nothing to gain but hope this helps a fellow Rennlister.

Could someone tell me what is happening to the market at the moment? The season is starting and there are no new desirable ones coming up. At least not in my price range of 50-65k.

1 - Cars are a "socially distanced" safe hobby, whether driving or playing with it in the garage (detailing, wrenching, etc.) Even Cars and Coffee type events are outdoors and pretty safe.
2 - Lot of people might be now realizing that life is short and unpredictable, they may have dreamed of owning a Porsche for a long time and are jumping in now - YOLO
3 - Folks who have been fortunate to still be employed during the pandemic have some extra cash from being at home all the time (no vacation spending, fancy dinners, etc)
As a result, sporty fun cars seem to be in high demand across the board. Supply and Demand and all that.
Plus the weird stop sale at dealers on 991.1's with sport chrono is artificially reducing supply too.

Not exactly sure what you deem as "desirable", but there are quite a few cars available in your price range.

I think it's the confluence of a bunch of factors related to the pandemic.

Also, I only see this in the Porsche market especially the 911. There are more BMW M2 Comp, M3 and M4 around with a MT, same with the US brands. Although those are not really my cup of tea. There are also plenty of motorcycles available for having fun, but I guess that's a different story.

Is this a deal. Great spec but I’m not sure on the price. I have a 991.1 GTS which is 96% of this car trying to decide if the extras are worth the money...
