CPO is 3500 dollars
recently a Porsche dealer bought a low mileage 2024 T from another dealer for 10 k below MSRP and sold it for MSRP with cpo
I think anything around 142 k is a reasonable price

Why not just get a new base 911. It will have the same seat of the pants horsepower, & more tuning potential (larger brakes, turbos, intercoooler) than this T, and you could spec it as you want? Since you dont mind PDK it would be the same. ~150 would give you a very nice brand new build.

Just an example:

The only reason to get a T at this price is if you are getting a manual, and are set on the spec.

I think this is an weird build. The point of a T is having a manual. I would look for an S or Gts with an aerokit for that price.

That’s what I am going to do. It makes sense for me to go with a 2025 911 Carrera and spec it like I want. Anyone know if there will be adequate allocations going out to dealers? This 911 will reside in Florida full time so I would like to go through a local dealer. I have zero experience with Florida P dealers. Can anyone recommend a Florida dealer they had a good experience with in the Bonita Springs, Naples or Ft Myers area?

luscioman

Use Paul Gavel at Naples Porsche. Dm me if needed.

So is a PDK on a GT3 RS an oxymoron?

I have a friend with one. Hisnplate is gt3pdk

I'll take a "not even true" manual over any automatic transmission any day.

I test drove a 7MT, the gates are way too close together, mis shifts are very possible I imagine, PDK all the way >>>>

Nope, non issue.

Gates are very close. Sixth to fifth had to be very deliberate but after 1000 miles seems to be much more fluid.

Don't think anyone mentioned the features not available as standard equipment or available as options on a .1 or .2 base...

1. Limited slip LSD...standard equip on T, S , and GTS...not available in a .1 or .2 base
2. PASM Sport...standard equip on T, S , and GTS...not available in a .1 or .2 base
3. Sport chrono and Sport exhaust....standard equip on T and GTS..option on .1 and .2 base
4. Short throw 7speed manual...standard equip on T and GTS...not available in a .1 or .2 base
5. Lightweight insulated glass...standard equip on T ...option for a .1 or .2 base
6. Lighter chassis (less sound deadening)...standard equip on T ...not available in a .1 or .2 base

992's are fine sport cars, and we all like a spirited drive every now and then...but since neither base can or will be fitted from the factory with the above items, so it makes sense that neither will out handle or out perform a "T" missing the above standard features.
​​​​​
Be weary of thinking a .1"T" and a .1 or .2 base are the same cars...street driving, they feel pretty much the same...its the spirited driving where the difference is noticed.
​​​​​​
So if you choose a base or "T"... make sure its the car that right for you.

Disagree. Gate spacing is very good. I think there is no real over-crowding of gearshifts in ZF 7 speed manual, as the 7th gear gets locked out from engagement unless the driver is shifting from the 5th or the 6th.

Having said that, a direct-mounted manual shifter like the MX-5 has a better shift feel, at any price point.

What I like about my Carrera T is its purist purpose as a sports car and its lightweight curb weight among the 992. Only S/T is lighter than the T with manual.
