Great thread! Very interested in finding a 997 GTS, manual 6 speed, with sport seats. I had a deposit down on one that someone else had already started a PPI and I missed out - - but the right one is still out there somewhere. Any help appreciated!

Nice but it's a 991 not 997 which is what this thread is for. Whoever spec'ed this car really likes paying extra for the red pipping and stitching. Given it's a 2015 I bet somebody had to unload it fast for some reason and carmax bought it, it's not something they would get at auction.

I don't remember reading anything stating it came standard on the 4 GTS.

Did you sell your beautiful C4S?

Been wrecked, apparently hit pretty hard. Could be an auction car.

Carmax usually stays away from ones with hard hits. Thats surprising.

Yes, all GTS models have PSE including the 991 and 991.2

I was originally looking for a 997.2 GTS in a manual. I then started looking at 991 GTS. Since I was in the ballpark, I started looking at 997.2 GT3s.

I have 95% of a deal worked out on this one including my trade and their price.

Any commentary on price appreciated.

I have nothing to add other than I traded in my .2 C2S for a .2 GT3 less than a month ago and I haven't looked back since. You're in for a real treat.

Stop it, I already can't sleep at night deal is supposed to go down on Friday. Anyone in the ATL area that can go put eyes on it for me? Any CPO shops that can be recommended? I bought both my previous 997s without CPO and I did not get burned. Obviously, in the six figures that changes the calculation a bit.

Was yours in the ballpark?
