I have a 2022 992 C4S, it is an incredible car, There has been glitches, but it's a "Porsche" , that's a big deal for some. Your car your way, Some will agree, some will not. Drive the car, have fun, if it isn't what floats your boat, sell it. The market is ready and able to recycle it . I love my Porsche 911, I smile every time I sit in it. Take care when you post here , the key board warriors are in places you may not expect. Sounds like a great spec, They are not perfect. I think perfect is Singer reimagined. But for a million dollars I would buy a few more variants as the only thing better than a Porsche is two Porsches. For the key board warriors have at it, I don't care.

If you're seeking genuine guidance...here it is. If you seriously make $60k a year, unless you've made millions in the market by some stroke of luck, take your life savings and invest it into a safe "investment" vehicle earning 4-6% interest per year, or find a financial advisor. Buying a Porsche at $200k is plain ludicrous, as it will depreciate in value, especially if you load it with a ton of options that other buyers are not going to pay for later on. Case in point, I just bought a used 2020. There was a model that had $15k-20k of options in it, going for pretty much what it was sold for in 2020 before Porsche raised the pricing significantly year after year. There was another one, same km, same year, same color, but with about $80k (CAD) of options going for $40k less than what it sold for in 2020. So basically the guy who fully loaded it lost way more than the guy who put in the basics (Chrono package, PSE, glass roof, Premium package...a few other minor things).

Next piece of advice, a car that is mass produced, isn't an investment vehicle.

Last piece of advise, change your alias to something other than wiseguy.

Seriously, I hope based on all the responses that you are trolling, and given the "want to go fast" comments (removing decals and painted black tires to go faster) which made zero sense along with several other comments, I have to assume you are, as otherwise you and your family are in for a world of hurt finances wise.

I'm out and am going to have to unsubscribe because I feel like I can't resist looking at this thread.

If he makes 60k he can't afford a new Porsche or a house. Clearly it just wants our responses and here I am responding. Please make it end.

One of the best troll jobs I've seen on RL. Good work. I do want to see one of those leather owner's manuals though. Imagine the resale!

I mean, everybody knows the only true way to add speed and agility to a Porsche is to spec the car in GT Silver. That’s like 25 HP right there. At the wheels, no less. And GT Silver is a weight savings of 50 pounds over all other colors.
stop bashing GT-Silver!
