Default Thoughts on 997.2 C2 and C2S Options

Hi,

I'm looking to purchase a 997.2 coupe for < $45k with a reasonable number of miles (<70k, ideally much lower). I don't have a strong preference between MT and PDK (I generally prefer cars with MT, but PDK with sports chrono is very tempting). From what I've come across, that means a 2009 or 2010 C2 with ~40k miles or a C2S with ~60k miles. In particular, I'm currently looking at the following cars (both similar interior and exterior colors):

2010 C2S, 63k miles, $45k: with MT, SC, Navigation, Bluetooth, Heated Seats, Black non-powered Leather Sport Seats,
2009 C2, 41k miles, $41k: PDK, SC, Navigation, Bluetooth, Bose High End Sound Package, Heated and Ventilated Seats, Black Standard Leather, Power Comfort Seats w/ Memory

I've read several posts on C2s vs C2Ss, primarily comparing a 997.1 C2S against a 997.2 C2 with similar mileage and price, but here thee is a 20k mile premium for the C2S.

I'd love to hear people's thoughts on these cars, which are representative of what I've seen.

If it helps, I'm looking for a car to use as a daily driver in Chicago and planning on using it for several years (say 5 years at ~8k miles/year).

I will go with manual, that what you like. 2010 C2S.
BUT if you are driving a lot in stop and go traffic, then PDK. Unless you don't mind shifting

Unfortunately, the 2010 MT just sold and not to me :-(

I drive a manual now in the city, and don’t mind shifting
