Lurking days will soon come to an end... agreed to terms with dealer on a CPO 2013 C2S Coupe today. It is inbound and will not be ready for sale for 10-14 days (transit time, reconditioning, certification process). Since not physically in their possesion they did not require a deposit, I have right of first refusal. More details to come...
A few morsels: Aqua Blue Metallic, Luxor Beige, S-PASM, PDK, PSE, Sport Chrono, Sport Seats, Sport Techno rims, glass sunroof, 10K miles, clean Carfax.

I'm pretty stoked!
Congrats!
Brings up an important point. The main goal of this thread is to educate and give a prospective buyer a snapshot into the current used 991 market.
This isn't cars.com that will list every 991 for sale in the US. I try and post some really unique and well priced cars which are gems that many Rennlisters have bought. Although, most followers here have done their own searching and have found cars on their own more often than not.
If you happen to find a car listed here which meets your wants, great! Most of the comments I get is how helpful this thread is in making better educated and wise purchases in their own searches.
There's too much to know with options, car history, CPO process, buying remotely, and dealing with dealer misinformation. Not to mention, what truly is a fair price. With having specific wants in a car, you might have to settle for a great deal instead of an unbelievable one which is fine. So instead of saving $40K off MSRP, you're saving $35K. At that point you're doing well either way. Look at the big picture. When that car comes up that you've been searching a year for, you may have to be a bit flexible in what you're wanting to pay. Is saving another $3-5K worth waiting another year for another car that may or may not come up?
I'm going on two years of looking at the market, and there are certain special cars I've seen come up for sale only once. Had those been my "ideal build", I'd still be looking. Just be flexible too, holding out for one of the less important options won't make your car less special. Especially if it's something that can be easily added/changed out.
