Price is irrelevant to "better". Every car is different, and has different build costs. Some have more power, some weigh less, some are more interesting to drive... But in no way are those attributes directly tied to price. What is "better" depends on what you like and value from a car.
I hear what you are saying and basically said the same thing in the second line of my post, but to say "Price is 'irrelevant' to better" is really a stretch.

I personally know the former owner. 😉 It has $3200 in Xpel 10 mil PPF and ExoShield film to protection the windshield.

2024 manual Shark Blue T less than 700 miles.

It is what it is as the vast majority of U.S. Porsche dealers are still doing this on every 992 model. The best kind of buyer is a “now buyer.”

Not really. Maybe GTS, definitely not T, and definitely not the majority. I'm in NY area and no one is doing that. You can advertise for your friend though.

It appears as though you are an expert at the 992 market. I recommend that you take the time to do some research here —> https://finder.porsche.com/us/en-US?...t_id=inventory

It is a very common occurrence amongst all pre-owned 992s, not just the GTS or GT models.

Every Region is market dependent right? ,i shopped hard (on line) using the CPO tool for my next purchase mainly in Mid and further south in Florida, mainly because i spend time there, and the dealers have a lot of choice..
but i knew the pricing was going to be a bit higher, when i was in WPB they had a very high spec base 911 on the floor with an ADM marked on it i think it was 10k.. i barely looked at it, and was told that the ADM was likely negotiable...

i wasn't looking for new necessarily, i was looking for spec and value... ended up with a CPO 992 C2S cab.. i felt like i perhaps could have gotten a new T for the price i paid and sure i used the configuration tool and sure enough i could have if i specced carefully, however i recently heard of a different dealer in another state selling a T allocation with a Tent so it still goes on, and it will continue as long as someone is willing to do these things...

I might get a watch if i was going to get a decent allocation as im a watch guy, but it would have to be justifiable as a package deal...
