Default Traded in my '14 C2 Cab....

Well, finally took the plunge! I purchased my 2014 CPO C2 Cabriolet exactly 8 weeks ago today. Being my first Porsche, I was misinformed and lack of education of p-cars led to a regrettable purchase.

I finally said screw it. I'll take a bath and get what the hell I want. Last night took delivery of a beautiful CPO 991 C4s Cabriolet. White car, black interior and black roof. She has 13k miles on it. But one owner, CPO'd, all maintenance records.... so while I didn't like the 13k miles, I'm ok with that. Finally have my SC!

What a difference. I regretted not having SC.... more power, and in Colorado, the all wheel drive will come in handy.

Funny thing was I still had paper tags on the C2!

My sales guy said that "once you buy your first Porsche, you'll be back for another one... just didn't think it would be so soon!"

Pics to come this weekend. For now, I'm going to enjoy driving the car I have come to expect from Porsche. Going to be a darn good day.

Congrats. Life's too short. Get what you want. Nothing's worse than living with a purchase you're not happy with. New 4S sounds nice. Looking forward to the pics.

I agree, a trade up from C2 to C4S is not negligible. Get what you want after thorough research and test-driving. The saying "if you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with" does not apply in motoring!

Congratulations. Beautiful car and sounds like the right thinking to me.

And great to see a garage not cluttered with a bunch of crap.

You should roll a real fat one tonight and celebrate!

I love driving in western Colorado. Wish I could do it more often. Driving through the canyon in Glenwood Springs is bliss.

Very nice..totally get the C2 to C4S. Price difference to S is not small, but a big difference in the car.

Good move. Doesn't make sense to stick with something that doesn't make you really happy. And at this price (in any trim level), you should be really happy with the car. Congrats!

Thanks, best decision I've made. As my 20+ year old kids say...YOLO. You only live once!
