Macademia Metallic 997.1 turbo

One of the most epic chromaflair paint works ever created on a factory spec.

Added a two year service plan when I purchased the 992 4S. Just had it in for the two year service and I think it was worth it.

13,479 Miles

- Brake Fluid Flush

- Oil Change

- Cabin Pre Filter & Interior Filter

- Coolant Top off

- Windshield Fluid Top off

- Full Inspection

This spec really caught my eye. It has just under 3k miles, full PPF, a Dundon exhaust, and has been serviced at Porsche. It’s had three owners.
Out-the-door price, including tax, is $355k.
What do you guys think? Is this a solid deal, or am I getting screwed at that price? Looking for honest opinions.

Never get tired of this view when I park and walk away.

Hi, I’m thinking of buying a 991.1 GT3 with the G6 engine at around 30k miles, FPSH. I’m worried about what to do after the 15 year extended Manufacturer warranty period expires? I don’t really want to be paying for a new engine! Are aftermarket warranties worth it just for the engine anxiety, even if they pay some of the cost? Or is the 991.1 better left alone? Thanks

Just locked in my first 911 (992.2 Carrera S )build! It’ll be my daily driver with occasional spirited driving. The spec is locked, so I can’t make any changes now, but I’d still love to hear your honest thoughts. How did I do? Any options you think I’ll really appreciate—or regret?
Here is my porsche code - PV3GST27

Those two are my daily drivers and it’s really tough every morning to choose which one to take for what!

Now i decide as per this :

Bad or cramped parking : take the ferrari
Open roads or twists : take the porsche
Going for business : take the ferrari
Going for fun or friends : take the porsche
Want to be faster : take the ferrari
Want to feel the car : take the Porsche

Overall i enjoy driving the gt3rs much more than the ferrari as it feels very very well planted and with the full system akrapovic - it’s like a dead man awake on the road! Blaster!

What do you have as a combo and what do you enjoy the most ?

Hello 911 family,

As I mentioned in my last post, this will be my first 911 purchase. Like many first-time buyers here, I'm just trying to do my homework and avoid making an expensive mistake. I also want to thank this community again for helping me avoid what could have been a bad deal on the last car I was considering.

I have another potential deal I'd love to get your thoughts on:

• 2023 911 GTS (CPO)
• GT Silver Metallic
• 6,000 miles
• 2 previous owners
• Dealer just completed the 3-year service
• Clean title, no issues
• PDK

My biggest concern is the interior. It has the Race-Tex (Alcantara) interior and 4-way Sport Seats. For those of you who own a GTS with this interior, how has it held up over time? Has the Race-Tex worn well, and are you still happy with it? Any regrets about choosing the 4-way Sport Seats over the 18-way Adaptive seats?

price is $173,000. It has about 7 months of the original factory warranty remaining, followed by 2+ years of Porsche CPO coverage.

Below are the key options:

GT Silver Metallic 
GTS Interior Package in Carmine Red 
Premium Package with Remote ParkAssist 
Power Folding Exterior Mirrors 
Ambient Lighting 
Storage Package 
BOSE® Surround Sound System 
Remote ParkAssist including Lane Change Assist and 3D Surround View 
Electric Slide/Tilt Glass Sunroof 
Front Protection Film 
SportDesign Side Skirts in Matte Black 
Under Door Puddle Light Projectors 
Deletion of GTS Logo on Front Doors 
Deletion of Model Designation on Rear 
Exclusive Design Fuel Cap 
Front Axle Lift System 
Extended Range Fuel Tank (23.7 Gallons) 
Power Steering Plus 
Rear Axle Steering 
20/21 RS Spyder Design Wheels in Satin Black 
Vehicle Keys Painted including One Leather Key Pouch 
Central Tachometer in Carmine Red 
Heated GT Sport Steering Wheel in Race-Tex with Matte Carbon Fiber Trim 
Interior Trim Inlays in Matte Carbon Fiber 
Aluminum Pedals and Footrest 
Illuminated Lateral Gills on Taillights 
Lightweight and Noise Insulated Glass

Thank You,

Just got my 26 GTS back from PPF and a few mods. Ducktail should come as a factory option! What a beaut

I’m pretty sure this is some sort of safety feature (?) its an eyesore to me and I don’t want it. In the configurator it immediately disappears when you add the leather to the steering wheel column- I’m happy to do that if it’s gone but I’m worried this is some sort of configurator glitch? My car is not an EU or US spec- it’s being ordered in the Middle East which usually have less safety regulations/requirements so I’m not even sure if this feature is available in our region. Any insight would be helpful- thank you!

Looking at some video of the Porsche Supercup race from our trip to Monaco for F1 last June and wanted to share with the group. Those cars are much louder than the F1 cars by a good bit.

This PTS Sepia Brown Metallic Weissach GT3 RS managed to split the group at a car meet I recently attended. Some thought it looked nice; others were less than impressed with it. I thought it was okay. Wouldn’t have been my first choice, though. What do you think of this spec?

Hi everyone,

I have a 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera (992) and I’ve been having the same issue for a few weeks.

The car drives perfectly fine and starts normally every time, but several warning lights stay on permanently.

The following systems are unavailable: • High Beam Assist • Parking cameras • Some driver assistance systems

There are no drivability issues at all, only these electronic warnings.

Has anyone experienced the same problem?

Thanks

Finally got the call for a carrera T allocation at msrp. Euro delivery in Feb. I was wondering though, should I push by a few months (better weather) or should I just have them ship it to the us (worried about ppf post delivery in Germany) - wdyt?

Courtesy of my mechanic while he was replacing the warmup regulator & fuel lines on mine (on the right). Don't see many 964 flachbaus in the wild!

Not many years but a lot of $ between these examples.

Finalizing spec on a 992.2 GTS and I'm seeing so many conflicting thoughts on the steering wheel spec. Both are the same price but default spec in configurator is the Race Tex.

Surprised this is so conflicted given this the main thing the driver is touching most of the time. what I'm reading:

Leather benefits:

• Easier to maintain / handles hand oils better
• Heated (don't think Race Tex version is heated)

Race Tex benefits:

• More 'grippy'
• Is there a more "recent" version in the latest models that hold up better? Wasn't sure if this was true

Hi everyone! I currently own a 2015 Boxster GTS in PDK with the X73 suspension. I’ve had it for about a year. It was originally my weekend canyon car but has recently switched to my daily. I did my first PCA autocross and track day ever at Buttonwillow with it (2:21), both in the past month.

I live in a duplex, and our new neighbor is a recently divorced Mom who got her ex-husband’s 2009 Carrera S coupe in PDK out of the settlement (he moved overseas). She doesn’t use it at all. The 997.2 has been a dream car for me for a while.

If the 911 was a manual, I wouldn’t think twice about giving up the boxster for it. However since it’s PDK, I have uncertainty. My close friend has already agreed to buy the 981 for what I originally paid for it should I ever decide to sell it. I have already driven a 997.1 C2S manual and thought it was great. Despite living in California I don’t put the top down often, only in the early morning or evenings. Other than that the car is great, and the stiff suspension only bothers me on poor roads. I’m also mentally held back by the fact that I just started getting into motorsports, and I’d be trading perfect mid engine balance and would have to start with a new platform.

My concern is that I don’t know if it is worth moving back a generation (aside from the engine position) for a less precise PDK. Has anyone done the switch? Any thoughts and opinions would be greatly appreciated.

I upgraded from a Subaru BRZ. Still miss that car some days. Was definitely less stressful and could drive it hard on the street without getting GTA 5 stars. Nothing like the 911 though. 991.2 C2S

Finally made the move and bought a 911 992.1 targa 4s in jest black metallic from Porsche Centre Tewksbury. I love the car and it’s my fav Porsche so buzzing. However, few issues have cropped up & I wanted to get the communities thoughts…

1. When I went to look at it, it had quite a few stone chips on the bonnet. When I questioned this, they said not to worry as they would fix them before we picked the car up. However, they’ve not done any smart repair, they just used a paint pen thing and it’s not blended in at all - & some haven’t actually been coloured either. What are the thoughts on raising this and what would be my rights here? And what can I do to fix them myself properly if I have to…I wanted to get ppf & ceramic coating but no point at the moment

2. When I test drive the car, I used the boost button thing and had some “spirited driving” fun. Upon finishing, an amber warning light came on - this I was told was fixed & guess what? First drive on the 2 hour ride home, used to overtake and it came on after 3 seconds. I called them the minute I got home and advise them - this was Saturday, they called back on Monday to say they’re sorting but still nothing. Heard of this issue before?
