I've been searching for a 2013-2016 911S or 911S4 coupe for about a year. I'm looking for what I think most people are- CPO, low miles, sport exhaust, pasm, chrono, pdk, Nav, 14-18 way ventilated seats, Sport steering wheel, and all the other goodies that come with the sport package. Color choice would be- Basalt Black, Agate Gray, Rhodium silver, Deep blue, or Jet Black.

Any leads would be most appreciated.

Thanks again guys. Great work!

Cowboy
You have a pretty flexible wish list which is good. Shouldn't be hard to find a car. Geez, look at the Agate Aerokit Cup C2S I just posted yesterday or the one from today! Get enclosed transport right to your driveway. Easy peasy.

Yeah but.

Don't discount '16 or even '15 leftovers guys. There are still quite a few out there and the discounts bring the pricing close enough to some of the nearly new ones we see here that it becomes a no brainier. Be aggressive. Make cheeky offers. Sometimes it works

Keep all options open!!

Checking this thread almost everyday and hopefully I can ****** one sooner. Thanks for sharing the tips and lessons!

Important lessons for any new guys.

1. Go back and read as much as you can here. Nobody became a doctor with a one week cliffs notes class.

2. Find out what you're looking for and be somewhat flexible.

3. Learn where to do searches and do them daily.

4. Don't expect to find your car next door. With all the variables and somewhat limited nature of the 991, shop nationwide. You're not shopping for a Honda.

5. When that special car pops up at a fair price, jump on it. Too many stories of "just missed it". It could be a LONG time before your special unicorn appears again.

6. Have fun and don't get too discouraged. I know it's tough sometimes.

"Highly optioned" would be an understatement.

I've seen 991.1 Turbos with lower MSRPs, which is a testament to Porsche's simultaneously profitable/obscene option structure and pricing.

The brown exterior color will probably keep some people away.

Great find!

The Anthracite Brown Metallic is a nice color. I posted one here for sale at Fred Lavery in Detroit with great pics a week or so ago that I took in person.

This car also sounds like one I posted from Porsche Exchange in IL last year. Looking at the history, not the same car but very similar.

This car sounds like a REAL FIND. You're getting a bunch of cosmetic leather options for pennies on the dollar buying used. Aerokit Cup with all the performance options and 18 ways/Burmester are awesome.

I hope a follower here on Hot for Sale snatches this up!!

I think the Anthracite Brown with Yellow PCCB will look killer. Might need more aggressive looking wheels though - wish it had the Design wheels.

By "new" I meant getting a new one (2017) at 0-5% off MSRP.

Buy a 2015/16 at 12%++ off MSRP, and then we're talking.

I've seen this one in person, it's a PDK version of mine, minus the 18 way seats. Leith is very picky on what they CPO, so you know the condition will be above average. If you can't get a hold of John, ask for Phillip!
