Surprised than more Porsche salespeople aren't well represented on this thread, particularly considering the fact that so many are sold to out of state customers. (If such a tool existed back when I sold BMWs for a living I would've been all over it!)

The membership paying dealers post in the classifieds.

On HFS, the intent is to be an enthusiast contributed thread where any great deals get posted and vetted.

Dealers and sales guys want to sell any cars. They don't have our best interest in mind. Last thing we want this being is cars.com or eBay.

Now if a car is at a dealer where we have a contact, by all means it's great having a point of contact versus a cold call. I have a few contacts who are great sales guys, and if any cars come up at their dealerships I reference them. On the other hand, many cars at their dealerships I would never post just because I know them.

Some great HFS deals here. Anyone have experience swapping out the hideous stock steering wheel for the Porsche Design wheel after the fact? What is approx cost to do that?

Thanks!

Easy. Like $1K (or less) for the wheel and one hour dealer labor. See Suncoast for price ranges and ideas.

Then there's one step beyond that ...

Yeah me too. Only downside is you need to buy the airbag too which is more than the wheel most times.

Don't let the wheel hamper a buying choice.

Also, if you drop the multifunction wheel you need a column stalk too to control them. Like $300 or so. No biggie.

I swapped out the standard wheel for a SD wheel a few days after picking up my C2S.

Unfortunately, you just missed Suncoast's big sale. I got a great deal on a brand-new wheel from the RL classifieds.

It is a pretty easy DIY project; search for threads on it. It seems like the most common mistake is not waiting long enough after disconnecting the battery, which throws an airbag code that requires a trip to the dealer.

There is a sweet 2015 CPO C4S with 9800 miles, asking $94k, at Napleton Porsche in Westmont, IL. I do love Racing Yellow/Black. My wife does too :-)
Full disclosure: I bought my C2S from Kerry Terlep at Napleton when I was in Chicago last Summer. Great buying experience!

LOL I was just there a few hours ago and had taken this photo of it...very nice! '96 Targa, looked gorgeous. Unfortunately I cannot really justify having two 911's in my garage LOL...



Now back to 991.1's!

Nice build. Not sure about the photos, though - did they use a green filter or something?

$$$ = we'll see. These guys are on the high end every time I've looked. Was trying to buy my first 991 from them, but they wouldn't deal much. Like approx 30-40 days later, they dropped the price lower than my original offer they refused I had told them they were too high

Yeah, they are showing 2 other 2013 Carrera S's

Looks like a good deal here on a 13 at Bimmer San Antonio. All its missing is SD steering wheel and PSE.

Amazing to see how much smaller it was than a 991, especially the interior. Beautiful car, though!
