C2 or C24S
I am looking at two 992s - C2 and C24S. Both are 2021's, have 3K miles, with similar options. The C24S is a private owner and would cost me $15K more then the C2. The C2 is a CPO vehicle (warranty until August 2027). Since I live in Chicagoland, I don't plan on driving the vehicle that much until Spring 2023 so I am not sure if I wait until then and see what is out there since used car prices are dropping. .
To add another wrinkle, I can build new C8 HTC Vette at MSRP with guaranteed delivery by March 2023. The C8 HTC is $20K less than the C2 and $35K less than the C24S.
I know it is my decision but looking for thoughts and opinions....especially from those that have driven the C8 and the 992 (base or 4S). Thank you.

If you were picking now, pick the CPO one and move on.
The C8 dollar store Lambo that the aero fairies puked on isn't even a comparison point unless you want hp/$.
If you can wait, I would wait.
Have you thought of ordering a new 911 at all? Might be worth it if it is in your price and time future.

I just went through this and here are my thoughts FWIW. I wanted a low mileage 21 or newer C2S or C4S. Whichever one I found that I liked the build and price best, I was going to get. Ended up with a one owner CPO 21 C4S that had 2800 miles on it with full PPF/tint. It was right in the middle of pricing of similar ones of each I found across the country. I’ve test driven both quite a bit and honestly if I hadn’t seen the badge on the rear, I’m not sure I’d know which one I was in. Now that I’ve driven in snow with PA5s on I can obviously tell a little more of a difference. That being said, I wouldn’t be afraid to drive a C2S in the same conditions either.

Is it a Lambo... or is it a Ferrari?
