A bit off topic - but in about 3 weeks, this thread will be two years old. And +/- a view or two, STG's thoughtful (usually ) and considerate (most of the time ) stewardship of this thread will result in ONE MILLION VIEWS by fellow enthusiasts who like to look at cars, discuss vehicle values, and help others find the best 911 match at the best value!
Should we start a separate thread to post "bets" on what day/time view 1M will happen? At about 1350 views per day average we're only a few weeks away.
Thanks for getting this off the ground George - clearly one Internet news source that has value to a lot of people.

Hey Gordon,
Thanks for the post. The HFS 2yr anniversary is coming up! In case you guys haven't noticed, beaverlake was the FIRST Rennlister to post on HFS other than my first initial posts on DAY 1 of HFS. He either thought it was a good idea, or thought it would be buried in the RL thread graveyard
I really believe the great group effort here, and loyal followers are the best around. Staying laser focused and loyal to the HFS mission isn't always easy and sometimes needs some guidance. It ain't always touchy feely, but that's what it takes to keep this the "go to" spot on Rennlist for so many. Can't argue the post and viewership #'s. Haven't looked at the numbers lately, but was hoping to hit 1,000,000 by 3/16/17. Then I can retire!!
I must say, the contributing group over the last 6 months or so has been the best ever. It makes being a part of this so much fun
I better keep delivering my share of the HFS finds, or I'll be thrown under the bus here
What u guys think of my deal? 2012.5 991 C2 cab MSRP 103,000?
What do u guys think of my deal???? I got my first 911. It's a 2012.5 991 C2 cabriolet triple black manual transmission CPO with 30k miles in really good condition for $60k plus tax from a local porsche dealer. MSRP was 103,000.00. Plus the 4 year service has been done!! I think is was a good deal,. But I'm just wondering?? Thanks
Thanks for the info. Congrats on the GT3! What year?
It's not like these dealers are making more than $10K most of the time on these used $75K-$95K 991's. I'd assume $6K-$8K most of he time which would be ok with me.
As I've said before, I know this isn't kialist.com, but: considering a "normal" dealer shouldn't be making more than 3-5% on a new car sale, this just goes to show how much they make off of resales, and that's not including the profit they're making flipping a trade in... But, as they say: you gotta pay to play.

Thanks STG! And well earned congratulations! I've been a regular follower for almost two years and have been loving my 991 every day for almost exactly one year now. Celebrated your first year by buying my own. Took me almost a year to learn what I needed to know and to find the right one for me. But please, no retirement for you! Keep up the great work!!
Ejekums: I bought the identical car new in platinum and it is still a whole bunch of fun, especially when you push that sport button and get up into the higher revs. The price you paid is really good, especially with the CPO. I did a few minor mods with mine - removed the "911 Carrera", put on a Sharkwerks X pipe which gives great sound (especially with the top down) and put on quad tailpipes which I got from Fabspeed but I wouldn't recommend buying them from Fabspeed(Buy the cheap ones from China on eBay.)

Sounds good not knowing more details.
If you like that sort of car and price range, there also is WP0CA2A97CS140235.
Seems like a decent one, but you'd have to do your due diligence. $5k more than the similar white GTS i posted above, but has lower mileage and parking sensors. The other one had Burmeister.
