Default Thoughts on this 2010 C2S??????

I have been researching and looking for several months now, I was ready to order a 981-S, but keep seeing cars like this for around the same price, in the end with depreciation this will actually cost less, more than likely a good amount less than the 981-S. I got my 25K service on my Audi TT today so I got to see it really well, it is in great condition. I would not have paid extra for the Black wheels, but they do look very nice.

Anyone possibly know this car or have any thoughts?

Thank you!!!

This is the car you want to buy. Best deal I've seen on a low mileage GTS. Even better than the one I got on mine and I think mine was the best I've seen so far until I saw this car for sale.

It's not a GTS, it's a c2s. GTS only came out in 2011. Still a great one. Pretty well specced. You can work the price down. Go for it!

It looks like a GTS to me. It has the centerlock wheels, alcantara, pse, all stock.

It says Carrera S on the back and has standard 5 lug. Great looking deal, super low miles and prime color!

The one I listed is a C2S, the other is a GTS from Houston.

Mine is at my local dealer.

Now I'm confused. The link goes to a 2010 C2S with no centerlocks, Alcantara or PSE. It is however, a great car, great color, good options and low miles. It is $80k. I think you can get it lower. I'd buy that car at a better price.

I don't however see any GTS for $80k. That would be 2011 or 2012 with X51, power kit and PSE and at $80k would be a screaming deal.

Hakaida was talking about the link he posted which is a GTS, the op did in fact post about the 2010 C2S in the beginning.

Here's a different link to the gts.

I wonder how long this one will last.

With 6% tax do you think $80K out the door is a good deal? That would equal $75,200 with CPO, this had to be over $100K new. I think the GTS is a great deal, but the last color I want is black. Also I am curious why it has no CPO, I would bet it has a suspect DME report.

It does have CPO per the ad. Plus CPO is not a given or lack of it an an indication of an issue. It costs $$, so may not be added in all cases.

Looks ike both cars do not have PASM sports plus option.

I really like white but that GTS is a steal if it all checks out.
