How funny. Small world here.

Tight Line! Yep. That was one of two vendors I requested an estimate from yesterday. Funny

Default 2017 C2 Cab


Okay y'all, I really like this car, and think it's aggressively priced. CPO, nicely equipped metallic white, blue top, full blue leather interior, premium plus, Bose. $75,500

It does have 30k miles, however. Also, the wheels appear to be different that what is on the build sheet. I'd be interested in hearing from the dealer what that's about.

Save any undisclosed paint work, damage history, it looks great. Thoughts?

Build sheet attached.

My wife's 991.2 C2S has just been listed, should anyone be interested. It was posted here a few months ago: we bought it from Eduardo (Z356). It is a gorgeous car and an amazing performance machine! 12,400 miles, $95k.

Loved this one when it came up for sale last time... So tempting. Throw a cobb tune and DSC controller on this, and the car would be an absolute beast...

@raidersfan, why are you parting with it so soon?

She is already a beast in stock form! Yeah, tune, DSC, and headers: that should do the trick.

The original plan was to sell the GT4, get a cheap older Cayman set up for DE, and keep this beast. Both are my wife's cars, and she had a change of heart (we turned down a full priced offer on the GT4). There is simply too much money tied up in these 2 cars long-term. I freaking love this car however. We attended Mavs last month, and it got much more attention than a "mere" 991.2 normally garners. It is faster and more nimble than the GT4, although it doesn't quite feel that way on the road. The problem is that she drove a 987.2 CS and was really underwhelmed. Who wouldn't be after owning a GT4? She has really bonded with the rumble-bee, although she drives the 991.2 more often, due to it having 4 seats and having to get kids to school.

Who knows: she may change her mind again! At least she is a manual gal at heart, so whatever we end up with will have 3 pedals. But, to be fiscally responsible, I see a 997 or 997.2 manual cab in our future. One car that is pure performance, and one that is simply open-air flat-6 family fun. The kids love going to school in a 911, even moreso a cab, and they are fairly affordable. I just need to wait for an Aqua Blue or Cobalt one to come up.

A local dealer wants her at just over $90k, so if I don't get any interest her, I will just pass her along. It will be a sad day though. This is the perfect epic back-road trip car. Just ask Eduardo! He did a tour last year in Colorado, and said that the McLarens on the tour had no chance of dropping him. This car is certainly a sleeper.

12K miles, $110K sticker and they are asking $90K.

For $5K more, IMHO it is a no-brainer to opt for the 2017 S with similar mileage a few posts above... S- power, S-brakes, SPASM, full Sport package (which includes RWS and Sport Chrono in addition to the sport exhaust), more leather, $21K higher sticker, etc.

I love used 991.2 base Carreras, but largely for their value. When the creep up in price to about what an S will run, not so much.

My thoughts exactly! Actually, before we got the C2S from Eduardo, I was looking at a 911 T locally. It was a really nice car, and had the sport options that are optioned on my C2S. But, for no more money, I was able to get significantly more power (and I can make this into a GTS engine for a mere $6k). I ended up buying the silver C2S, and picking it up meant I got to check out Eduardo's incredible garage! He is an enthusiast through and through, not to mention that he and his wife are very, very nice people. People in the Porsche world are as impressive as the cars are.

I think a base 991 for sub $80k makes sense however; I have seen them dropping into the 70s. In the 90's, you have a lot of great options; either the 991.2 C2S or the 991.1 GTS can be had in that price range.

Too good to be true. I saw it last month for around $85k.

i wonder how bad the damage was. that dealer moves a lot of cars, I bet someone could get a great deal on that if they were willing to live with the history and its not a bad accident. if its been around on their lot for a few weeks its probably a week away from the auction.

Both are my wife's cars, but she has since decided that the GT4 is pretty special, so this one is the odd man out. $200k of cars in the garage is more than I am comfortable holding. We can always get a 997.1 cab down the line if we want a fun 4-seater. The GT4 is pretty special: I agree with her there.

I have a dealer offer for $91,500, so if anyone wants it, speak up now or it will be gone in a few days.
