Hmm. Is this a statement about willing to settle?

I am looking for GTS's too but I want a 5-lug variant as opposed to CL and they're very scarce.

If you could get it for 85K that would be a sweet price for a 2012 5 lug and MT

Plenty of dealers are well into the 80's, even high 80's and won't give up much. As for GTS's, I've seen both 2011 and 2012's priced higher than slightly used 2012 991S's.
I missed this, why are you trading your car for just exactly the same car again?

I saw that one but as much as I thought I was a MT die hard, I really like the PDK now. It's a lot of fun and it's clearly the trend anyway so I see no use in fighting it.

It's not the exact same car. It's a few years younger, different color, lower miles and I get to do a little project again with wheels, drop, exhaust and maybe something else. I think it makes a lot of sense

176 - Sport Exhaust
276 - self dimming mirrors
342 - heated front seats
425 - rear window wiper
640 - Sport Chrono
672 - Extended Nav
680 - Bose
686 - XM Radio
AT - Full black leather
P15 - 12 way power seats
P35 - Comfort Package
P36 - Infotainment Package
U2 - GT Silver
XRR - 19" Carrera Sport Wheels

My question for you guys is what is a fair price to pay for this car, and what is going on with the exhaust. Looks like it has some sort of cover over the actual pipes?

Thanks in advance for the help.

btw...this is the second time I have made a run at this exact car!



Bob-
I don't know high 70s sound very close to 991S prices, I would make the jump. But I am bias, I went for a used 2012.

Also seen turbos 997.1 going for that kind of price, and those are very very nice.
