Default GTS Feeler

I have a 2012 Platinum Silver GTS with 15,700 +/- miles on it. (6 speed manual) It's a great car, and it's CPO'd till 2017.

As much as I like it, I'm having serious thoughts about selling it.

The lure of 9,000 RPM's is calling...

What's the market like? I know a good one was hard to find when I was looking.

The market is terrible, so you should donate the GTS to me. :0)

I'm interested in hearing more and seeing more, but you should probably become a rennlist member before your thinly veiled attempt at selling the car is caught by the mods.

Was just in the market, bought a '12 GTS, many options (PDK, Sport Suspension, all leather, PDLS, ...), but 41k miles. Asking was $90k, bought at $81k. At least 5-6 CPO PDK cars out there at a time. Don't know about 6-spd ones. Use the 911 Locator and AutoTrader to get a sense of it. In general, I don't think good ones are hard to find.

You should consider a C7 Corvette for that kind of money.

Does your car have centerlock wheels?

Pictures of the car, interior/exterior and an options list would help here

Sir, you just made my day! I just bought out my lease and it appears to have been a quite a deal.

The poster was talking spending Corvette money on a 2012 GTS.

Say it with me now, a 2012 Porsche Carrera GTS costs more than a Corvette.

9,000 rpm.

Hmm. I think a 458 is in your future instead.

Yes, compared to mine, I should say. Similar MSRP, but 40k miles, CPO.
