Meanwhile this 997.2 GT3 is up to 114,000 with, um, 7 days to go.

Glad I have all the car I need for now. Just like housing, cars are no deal right now—whether used or new.

All this nutso used-car pricing has me seriously considering listing the Boxster.

Custom tartan upholstery on this one is pretty slick looking.

I was looking at other cars.

But I gravitated back here.

I had a very nice drive in a PDK equipped 992S. And I think I want a GT3 for the whole ownership experience plus resale value. But I’m probably going to get a 992S.

If I sound resigned it’s because manuals are impossible to find. And the PDK is really good.

Since you’re getting a pdk, what about a base model? Seems like it’s plenty fast enough these days...

I would have if I could.

Inventory is so thin right now dealers have 0 or 1 car in stock. And things go fast.
