Mike C. Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) Thought I’d pop this in here, just in case it is of interest to anyone. I’ve had 911s for nearly 40 years and always found the base, coupe, manual models to be the sweetest, and this has been one of the nicest for real world road use - comfortable, fast, economical and practical. it is due to go to the dealership shortly, but thought I would offer it here for a touch over their price.

BigCol Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Are you in the various 911 faceache groups? There’re often folks there after cars, especially those with Spanish gearboxes… Whilst not a 991, here’re my pair: Good luck with your sale. What’s next for you?

Mike C. Posted March 31 Author Share Posted March 31 Thanks for that, but not really engaged with Facebook. 911 and Seven makes a very nice combination. I’ve only ever had 911s, as my main car, since the 1980s - two 3.2 Carreras, two 964s, three 993s, two 996s, two 997s and three 991s - a 991.1C4 GTS (PDK), a 991.2GT3 Touring, and this one - the simplest, but nicest. It has taken me a while to find the affection for the 992, but this is next - same colour and spec this 991. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenF Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 (edited) Lovely car Mike - and a bargain for someone. Would love a 911 one day, having already ticked the Cayman box. In a couple of years, if my business goes well... So you think that the base model is actually the best option for a daily driver? Some people seem to turn their nose up at them and insist on an S. Seemed strange to me as even a standard Carrera is ridiculously competent. Edited April 1 by BenF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C. Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 (edited) Thanks Ben With my experience of Porsches, I genuinely believe that the nicest cars, and best value, are often the ‘entry level’ models - whether Boxster/Cayman or 911. Adding more power, body addenda, driver aids, luxury features, stiffer suspension, bigger wheels, added weight and complexity, doesn’t IMO make a better Porsche - certainly for road use. ‘Less is More’ as they say. The important thing is to buy carefully. An old or cheap Porsche can be painful, expensive and frustrating. The best cars are normally factory original, desirable spec/colour, low(ish) mileage/owners, immaculate condition, FPSH and the comprehensive extended Porsche Warranty for complete peace of mind.
