@DSC48 But u have to stop posting comments there to drive up price, ha. Just Kidding…probably makes no difference. If I was bidding on it, I’d already have a max number.

Im guessing that there is going to be at least two bidders who’s max number will be at least 25k over sticker. T allocations are not easy to come by and PG is a discontinued color.

I was wondering why you didn’t do that for many months now too


Lol. Should kick that video for people who still don’t know. You with your photographical memory got any idea which page it was?


100% orange stitching. Leave the belts black. You can change them later. You can definitely do a white tacho and chrono with this combination. I also see you got the most leather options included which is a must with such a beautiful specced car. Lower door parts and inner sill door guards. Don’t forget the last bits: fusebox with the middle vent part in leather and the floormats and the backside of the rear view mirror. So your deviated stitching is really fully paid off to the max. I think Race Tex will work brilliant in this killer combo. Golf blue with orange stitching and white dials and the race tex steering wheel and shifter. Endboss. For sure. But please leave the “Carrera T” logo! All other 992 already have that so it’s less special.

EDIT I see now that in USA you have the Extended Leather Package for $1,360. This really is a bargain. Great choice. But I also see you don’t have the backside of the seats in leather. I think this would be a must with this combination. If you are at the end of your budget I seriously would consider dropping the Extended Dashboard in Leather and adding the backside of the seats in leather. Reason being the dash is already in leather so you are only paying for that small part stitching in front of the chrono. While in the 991.2 the leather dash had the stitching everywhere on the dashboard. This really is a rip-off by Porsche. Would be my advice.

My actual prediction? Hmm... I bet it's very close to MSRP. Not counting auction fees.

just noticed buyers fee there is $4500 vs $5000 BaT. So at my guess 139,500 all in. I hope it sells higher. Equities market is good right now. See what happens…

typical last second Ebay strategies i had honed since 1995 (multiple windows with variable amounts) did not work....Every time someone bid, it extended the deadline by a couple of minutes-->money grab! worse than shill bidding

in for the class action suit!

When outbid, I up my bid immediately assuming I'm below my max. Signal your intent to whoever you are competing with and don't risk having some technical issue by waiting for a 5 second countdown. I also don't mess with $250 increments. Bid to the next $1000 level.

I did this on BaT a few years ago and got my car. 1984 Audi Ur-Quattro for sale on BaT Auctions - sold for $28,000 on June 29, 2020 (Lot #33,293) | Bring a Trailer
