There's no doubt this is one of the nicest builds I've ever seen but at 35k miles the ask is quite steep. A regular spec GTS with 35k miles is going to sell for around $70k. That means you're basically asking sticker price for all the options like PCCB and buckets. If a buyer does want to spend $96k, there are GTSs listed with as few as 3600 miles for that price. I think most buyers would go for the low mileage over the options. These are just my opinions. I'm sure there is a buyer out there somewhere, but it's going to be a tough sell unless "within reason" is $10k+.
I agree, the price is high, but I suspect that's because varun's car is not really for sale.
As someone that spent his whole deployment, 7+ months looking for THIS EXACT DAMN SPEC, I must say. Wow. I am in tears, and if I wasn't so addicted to the boost in my 997.1 turbo I would be making some really poor financial decisions to make this sale work and put another 35k miles on it in the next 2 years. Re-sale be damned, this is a drivers car meant to be taken to the limit.
I've been considering selling my 2011 GTS. I only put 650 miles on it last year. Just ticked over 20,000 miles. I'm the only owner having ordered/speced the car in November of 2010. A failrly unique build, GT Silver, 6 sp, full leather, lighted sills, painted lower pieces, limited slip, chrono, adaptive sport seats. Most unique spec was Carrera Sport wheels replacing centerlocks. Up to date on maintenance; just did serpentine belt, oil change and brake fluid flush this last week. PM for details
Good luck in your search. As you can see by my avatar and a couple of pics, I wound up with Joe's (J. G. Rausa) GTS. Love it, and Joe is the real deal car guy and seller. I sold a pristine, loaded 991.1 C2S, PDK to get back in to a 6MT and have no regrets. PDK is fabulous and I always drove in Sport Manual which was fun, just not what I've long been used to and enjoy. Here a couple of pics "post Joe'!
@SFZ GT3 Looks great and congrats. I spoke to Joe but the timing obviously didn't work out. Glad to see the car ended up in the hands of a fellow enthusiast.

Thanks, and I'll keep a watch out for you. Too bad about your original seller, definitely a "low rent" deal. I'm sure karma will take care of things going forward for you and the other seller.
Saw your thread and remember seeing this pop up in my Craigslist alerts the other day. Looks like a nice one. Still really want one but the timing is not right for me.
