The car looks amazing. Very handsome 911.

Manual 991.2s are in demand, I think, because 992 allocations are still so difficult to get. And if you can get one, it’s CPO and it’s listed above MSRP.

Which then kicks demand back to the dot two’s. And manuals.

Good deal!

No action yet. I just posted it Friday night and just on the pca site and 6sp online (it was free and I was already registered).

In hindsight I wish I hadn't taken it up to the lake for winter storage 3 weeks ago. If it was here I would take the selling approach much more seriously. The pics I posted are 'nice' but don't show any details of the car, they are just glamour shots I had on my phone from summer. If someone wanted it tomorrow, I am not sure i have the time to make the 8hr round trip to get it, then prep it, etc.

After the holidays I will re-evaluate and probably do it right.

It is kind of weird, I feel like it is way overpriced, but then I go on Autotrader or cars.com and it is like the 3rd cheapest "manual" convertible on the market. I put manual in quotes because one of the cheaper ones was pdk but the seller checked the manual box.

This week starts about three weeks when most people aren’t working. There’s FOMO because they got crap for holiday presents. They’re pissed about obligations all around. And then they’ll sit down and start shopping for themselves….let the market work. And let’s see what happens this next weekend.

Good point. Sweet spot might be between Xmas and New Year's.

I still browse actively because I just want to see the 992 GT3 prices come down.

I see softening in that market, but not as much as I do in the 992 Turbo/Turbo S market.

You could cancel your flight home and drive it back east.
