A topic I fear is already beaten to death, but since it’s about me, it’s more important, right guys?
I have a very well sorted G87 M2. I really like it, but it’s always been a bit of a stepping stone for me. I have enough to splurge on something I’ve wanted since I was 10 years old and that’s a 911. I’m going to do it. I’ve already decided a 992.1/2 will be my next whip. I need a manual and have driven many 911s (and other exotic cars) so it’s not a topic I’m too unfamiliar with.
Option 1: I can buy a gently used T now. I’d honestly rather get a 992.1 with analog gauge (the 7 speed doesn’t bother me) and pay sub $150k rather than pay close to my other option, which is…
Option 2: Wait for a Carrera S MT.
My conflict resides in the fact that I’m not sure how long it’ll take to get an MT at MSRP or if it’s worth $30-50k more. Will the T feel underpowered compared to my M car? I know it will feel miles better overall, but will it excite me from a butt dyno standpoint? Will the base price increase soon too on the MT, based on Porches new business model? A lot of unknowns.
Anyways, I really don’t want to reignite similar topics but if anyone has a T or S coming from an G8X or has any strong thoughts or opinions, let me know!
