I gave up on that exact spec after six months and just ordered a GTS. The only upside to the GTS was ventilated seats, nice to have in Georgia. I could never get a 50th without the Pepita seats, and those don't come with ventilation.
Other than that it ticks every other box for me better than a GTS, as much as I love my GTS.

Small: it doesn't have the sport design mirrors, the look of which I prefer.
Big: I would have a hard time justifying paying $12,000 over sticker.

Price is driven by market.
Buy a sportscar is truly emotionnal... GTS are great, 50th anniversary too.
If you want to drive your 50th ann. on a daily and respectfully basis, do yourself a favor: buy a nice one. Your next Rolex can wait.

To OP:
I have the car you're looking for
I'm on the registry. Not for sale though.
In all fairness, I think the only 50th that will hold its value are the garage queens. If they have any reasonable mileage, they won't command much more over any GTS (maybe a few grand?). Sure there are cosmetic changes (you can even say the mighty 911 R followed the 50th interior theme), but they are still just a Carrera. In the US the X51 kit was standard, but everywhere else in the world it's LESS powerful than the GTS.
It has a unique look, but drives no different than any other 991 that's comparably specc'd. It's no GT class, but it serves a different purpose.
My advise would be to get one if you plan to drive it and if you enjoy its appearance. I wouldn't consider it a very profitable investment. It's not a R, 2.7RS or a CGT.
