New (to me) '15 GTS!
Hi All-
Over the past weekend I picked-up a CPO 2015 GTS! First, let me send-out a big THANKS to RL member BOSSING for doing a local inspection for me! The pics and comments you sent were very helpful! With your help I felt very comfortable doing a long-distance transaction without ever actually seeing the car. More on that later!
First a pic of the new ride!
I flew down to the dealer (Porsche West Broward) on Friday, picked-up the car, made a few visits in the Boca / West Palm area, then drove the car back to PA over the weekend! What a trip! Car is awesome, and I am ecstatic to be back in a 991 -- and more specifically a 991 GTS!
More pics, vids and details to come -- I arrived back in PA late Sunday night, and came down with a cold or something so haven't had any time or energy to put together better pics or anything worth showing. I did try something a bit wacky with the car that I'll put into another post - I didn't want to have a shop or dealer I don't know do PPF, BUT knowing I was driving 1,100 miles home "naked" I tried a product called "Road Wrap" and covered the front-end of the GTS... That was... interesting.... Road Wrap is a temporary PPF "tape". I'll review it for those interested. Worked, but there are a lot of "buts"!
Anyway, thanks again to BOSSING (sorry couldn't get to see you and thank properly while I was in your area -- I had a very tight schedule so hope you understand)!!!
Stay tuned to RL and my YT Channel (GTSILVER) for mods and DIY projects coming-up. Cheers!

Congrats Plenum, beautiful GTS (and matching key)! I picked up a '15 cpo GTS myself back in Sept. and love it. I believe I saw one of your recent videos about your GTS search. It's great to hear about these long distance success stories.

Congratulations on the new ride. I would love to hear about the PPF experience, a few days ago I was just looking at the product you used. Next month I will be picking up my car with a similar 1000 mile road trip. I'm debating on having a local shop do the ppf installation or use some other protection (blue painters tape) until I get home
