@yrralis1 is too far away, but that's my home town, well just north in cocoa beach.
That seems like a lot to me. I'd probably look for something closer and at least a GTS.

I decided to buy the new 992.2 GTS with some doubts but I wanted to take my money off the street while I waited . I had custom ordered a beautiful GTS and it gave me 2 fantastic years . I also replaced those awful Goodyear tires and it has Michelin 4S with plenty of tread remaining . My dealership used manager low balled me so I went to an independent up the road who has been in business for over 30 years . They were not only outstanding plus the beat the offer but we got to talk and know each other more , They told me they have clients all over the country so it doesnt matter that you are in California .
I optioned my car in GT silver , with lightweight package (but chose18 way seats as I am 65) , Carbon fiber roof , and PCCB with PDK . It has the GTS leather /race tex interior but I did opt for a leather steering wheel . It has PPF and Ceramic by one of the best detailers in Miami . It was very hard to let it go . It has 14K miles ,
Heres a few pictures and if you are interested PM me and I will, send you a link to the dealership and the guy who I dealt with that was very easy to talk to.

Thoughts
I had a base car albeit a 991.2 and whilst it had a decent spec and i really liked it.. i kept eyeing further up the range, bigger brakes.. bit more HP, bit more cache in my opinion, i think you would be hard pressed to find another CPO in a base with the spec that this car has, certainly a new one would be an option if you want to wait 6 months.. i went through the same exercise of going on the configuration and speccing out a Base 911 "T" and i busted through 145k quite easily, so then you have a high spec base car, so give it a year and you might start thinking hmmm shall i do a tune , then you have to be concerned about your warranty, oh should i have gotten the S, then the next thing i thought was oh i wonder what my trade in value is on this base car... these are all subjective thoughts of course.

@jlegelis
thank you for flagging. Some questions: 1. What is the use case for surround view and 2. How do I get access to PPN so i can see if other cars i look at have similar issues that the dealer isn’t disclosing? Now I feel like it’s bad to just look at the CPO inspection report and car fax bc those don’t tell the whole story.

Saw this post today with a similar issue your car had...Might be worth looking into if you're buying the car...
Looks like there is a technical service bulletin for faulty injector and engine wiring harness.
