'17 Fashion Grey C2S beauty for sale, great dealer experience
Tortured myself for the past few days with the idea of trading my GTS for this awesome build: 7MT PCCB Sports Package Black Leather Interior No Sunroof Bose etc. I cannot believe this car hasn't sold yet. To my eyes Fashion Grey is stunning.
My experience dealing with Isringhausen (Mike Custer and Luke Isringhausen) was excellent. They are a class act, and will go above and beyond to earn a new customer. You get the feeling that they're not your run-of-the-mill dealer by taking a look at their inventory. Most of their biz is not local and they even have their own trucks. In the end, I didn't do the deal because I decided to hold out for a new GT3. (Just the tease of having the 911Rs steering and 6MT gets me excited.) Mike and Luke made it very hard to resist though.
^^^^
This may be one of the reasons why it hasn't sold. This is how I would've spec'd it though because it makes for a better daily driver, not as low and smoother ride. The only thing I would've done differently is add either carbon fiber or brushed aluminum trim.
+1 on the great staff and service from Isringhausen. I have a 911 on order with Mike Custer for a June Euro Delivery.
I looked each of the cars in your photos over very closely. I have a contrarian opinion of Fashion Grey. To me it looked like either someone got the paint mix wrong, or they took the avant-garde road by painting the car in grey primer and then gave it a great clear top coat. The color just didn't have any "pop".
Before my cataract surgeries I wouldn't even have noticed. But now I'm seeing true color again like a kid. Mike told me they rolled the dice by ordering that color and another PTS 911 in Viper Green. Now that car has pop!
that thing really is a beauty. Seems to tick all the right boxes too. I have the standard suspension and occasionally rub the front, I can't imagine how bad it would be with the sport pasm.
It's specd for the track (CCB, sunroof delete) yet no SPASM. Gorgeous color. But let's be honest if it had SPASM and PDK there'd be no reason not to buy it.
as for Isringhausen, I've had different experience. Nice folks, but always low balled massively on trade in offers versus other dealers. Also, would never budge on msrp for sales. After getting that several times, just passed on cars I liked there. Again, nice folks though.
Either no love for Fashion Grey or really poor 991.2 sales, or both? Still can't believe this particular car hasn't been sold yet.
Full MSRP for a car that has a narrow audience with that color and build. Most .2 buyers aren't buying builds like these. If this car had PDK, sunroof, and save $$ on no PCCB's, it would be gone.
They should have done it in one of the PTS Blues or Greens.
End of November and 911 sales down over last year, not surprising. This will be around for a while most likely. This car will ring in 2017.
Nothing really that special about it, plus who forgot the SPASM?? Big fail.
Trade a 991.1 GTS plus like $45K for this?? No thanks. I could see .2 GT3 or 2016 .1
Wait to see the $30K++ over MSRP on the .2 GT3's there. Will probably be much higher off the bat. Won't be as pleasant an experience.
Why don't they throw it in the classifieds here?? They're a sponsor. Maybe they'll get a bite.
I had a great experience too with Jeff at Isringhausen when dealing on a '16 GTS order. Ended up going used but can't say enough about their class and professionalism.
Nice car ! It will sell as they have quite the network of enthusiasts around the country
(I like it and would be a potential buyer except it's got a small motor
Yes I did but came across this particular build, and had a momentary loss of reasoning. Fashion Grey drives me a little nuts, particularly with these black wheels and PCCBs. My GTS's 18-way seats with alcantara are annoyingly small for my body, plus I'm not a fan of SPASM on the 991.1 (somehow a different story on 991.2). If it weren't for the upcoming GTS/GT3 this would've been a done deal. Decided to wait it out, and enjoy awesome motor and soundtrack while doing so.
