So long M3 Hello 991 Carrera S - Page 4

saeyedoc · 02-20-2013, 01:55 PM

Test drove a base 991 convertible the other day while my Cayman was getting new rear tires. Handled great, very nice inside. Currently, 2 yr residuals on the 991 are so good that the monthly may be about the same as a Cayman S that lists for $20k, less, will have to see if that trend continues when my lease is up next year.

They had a good promotion on them in January. 24 months no down $1190/month.

The base Carrera has a great lease deal right now. Unfortunately it is not as great of a deal for the 911 Carrera S.

Porsche will give you money right now to switch from another luxury brand.

Congrats, Nice car.

Didn't get any quotes, just know the 2 yr residual/ 12k/yr was 76% for base Carrera.

oh ok. i thought maybe you got some numbers. Porsche leases has always been so high that it made sense to just buy it instead of leasing.

nice pick up

mdosu · 02-27-2013, 10:08 AM

nice switch and I agree 100% with it. The GTR is a very fast, capable track car. But who cares right? No one is racing cars on the street. You can't even race people on a track.

Life is short, go for the car with the fun factor, speed isn't everything. If it was, everyone would have a GTR.

I would have picked the 991s 100 out of 100 times over the GTR.

After a few weeks with the 991 i can tell you that this car is really a drivers car or at least thats my opinion. It just stirs all the right senses.
