It's all about timing some times. I didn't want to roll the dice. I also got a chance to get a car "early in the Spring." I was very disappointed on how late I am picking it up. Car was in the US in late March! I expected to get it a month earlier.

Seems like a good price on a ‘21 BGTS.

Low options and two owners probably didn’t help.

Love the white.

When I received the email that the auction closed I felt it was shockingly low, but truthfully I knew little of the vehicle specifics.

Low options is a huge win to me. Damn. At $85k or so, I’d have had to think about a fleet shuffle.

definitely wonder why three owners, though?

I have noticed that a lot used Porsches that I have looked at have had 3 to 4+ owners while still under the factory warranty. Crazy to me and somewhat a turn off. I think many former owners get bored and figure they can get out easily while not losing any money too.
