I looked into what a manual, 2017-2019 C2S is currently bringing. It is ridiculous… and there are not that many available. Tons of PDK examples. 100% similar to the 997.2, mostly PDK examples.

Hmmm.


Interesting POV.


I cannot say I’m in a parallel situation, but I’m hopeful a 992 S addresses some of the (power and shifting) issues I griped about with the 991.2 T.

Put in a call to the dealer and they called me some choice names. So I’m sitting tight with the GT3 until the 992.2s come out. In other words, be patient and be more like JST.

Cautiously excited then. 2kWh battery is tiny.

Welp, it is pretty much with certainty that we will not see the 992.2 enter production prior to August 2024 as an individual located in Switzerland recently received a PTS allocation for 992.1 Coupe to be produced in August.

I am fairly certain that I seriously considered this 997.2 C2S in the fall of 2021, but I pulled back when I learned via the CarFax that the factory windshield had been recently replaced with aftermarket glass at a MINI store in Dallas and the mileage had also been entered incorrectly. The seller, RAC in Dallas told me if I did not like the aftermarket glass then I could replace it myself after purchasing it with OE glass. They exhibited no desire to correct the mileage discrepancy. I disappeared shortly after that as they were asking the same price it is currently listed for in Cali 2.5 years later.

Excellent spec. Weird that rear tires are below 50% at that premium price... If local, I'd be tempted.

This car is priced well. If everything pans out with the lineage and no hidden issues it’s a bargain.

What a cool car!

Thanks for the eye candy.
