My experience with BAT is the nit pickers only really have a field day if you're not forthright. They like to find undisclosed things, but if you're honest about everything, engaged and enthusiastic I think you'd do very well. To theo's point, I think your car is pretty rare and would draw a lot of interest on BAT.

If the chips really concern you, get a Dr Colorchip kit and clean up the stone chips. I'd still show them on BAT as "Dr Colorchipped" but it would be one less item to worry about.

I'm guessing he has surround view cameras

I would consider a base model only if they still have manual available. No stick no sale.

Definitely good time to unload and then drop a deposit on the GTS.

Dont think you could get full surround (no front camera).

Hanging out here is getting expensive. Now I'm starting to think about a manual 992S for 126k

I mean. Compared to my 981.2 GTS build, this seems pretty decent for bang for your buck.
