Am leaning towards a C2 MT sapphire blue 991.1 at some point. Must have leather interior. Just need to decide if I am moving abroad again or staying in country...

Default Long time lurker goes legit...

Well, it finally happened. I went legit today after being a long-time lurker and picked up (finally after a year long search) my new to me 991.1 that fit my wish list perfectly.
Here is a little info on it, and a few pics. I can post more later if anyone is interested. But for now here it is, another Carmax special!
This car is near flawless, paint, interior, new tires (not Michelin), CPO and smells like new still... So here is another data point for your pleasure.

$67,998
Mileage 31K

Nice score! I saw that one come across my Carmax alert yesterday morning, good for you for jumping on it quickly, and doubly good that it wasn't one of the "less loved" ones that we sometimes see at Carmax. Nice build too...

You should consider having a full PPI done on it right away as Carmax is typically very good about covering the cost of fixing things during the 'return period'.

On the CPO, not sure if you meant that it had a Porsche CPO from a previous owner, but if so tread carefully on that one... Porsche CPO's are voided if the car is sold through a non Porsche dealer. If the servicing Porsche dealer doesn't know and doesn't do a simple carfax check, and you don't mention it, you might get warranty coverage, but I wouldn't bank on it.

Thanks guys, yea as you were saying to take off the front plate, I was in my garage taking it off!
This car is the nicest I've seen at Carmax, and I saw a lot of them over the past year!
PPI done today, checked out great, no issues.

I am looking to purchase a CPO 991.1 C2S. The lease on my F80 M3 ends in July but I am willing to buy before then to ensure I can get a car to my liking (more difficult than I expected). My preferences are:

Preferred: Sports Chrono, PSE, 14 or 18-way seats, upgraded audio, black/gray/silver/blue
Don't Want: SPASM (bad roads in Atlanta)
Price: Prefer to stay at or under $80K

What are people's opinion on: https://porscheatlantaperimeter.com/...+Black+1733283

What is a reasonable price? It doesn't have PSE and I'm not sure I can get them down to ~$80K. I can wait to see what else comes up in the next couple months but this is pretty close to what I'm looking for.
