New to the forum and to Porsche! With a little issue...
Hello everyone! I am new to the forum and to the porsche community! If I am posting in the wrong thread please let me know!
I am currently in the market trying to get ahold of a 991 but I'm torn between two model years.
Between a 2012 Carrera S or a 2013 Carrera S
I am in no hurry trying to get the cars so I could wait for depreciation to hit a little bit more, but my only concern is if there's any issues with a 2012 model because it's the first model make over and stuff like that. I'm leaning towards the 2012 model because I found one that's with in my budget and has all the bells and whistles that I want in my Porsche! So I just want to know if there's any first model year problems or issues to look out for or if the 2013 will be better quality since I assume they will fix any bugs or issues from the 2012 model. Thanks for your time and understanding! I will be posting often because I do indeed have lots of question! Thanks y'all!!

Yep, wrong Forum. Welcome to Rennlist. Go to the dedicated 991 Forum. Read the "Hot For Sale" thread. Will help you a lot.

FYI...a 2012.5 would be the only 991. A true 2012 would be a 997.
The 991 also uses the 9A1 motor from the prior 997.2 series, so these are pretty well proven.
