Porsche sweet spot?
Re: Porsche sweet spot?
Thanks for the feedback.
It's just an itch I'm now able to scratch (that I never thought I would) apart from the garaging/storage at the moment.
It will be a 2nd/3rd car. I plan to keep the RS.
Was going to buy a 911 turbo S as 2nd car initially.
Just was treated badly by porsche colchester, and very well by ferrari colchester.
Wierdly they are opposite each other and owned by the same company.

Interesting
Love the F12 but not in the position to afford one even if I sold some of what I have got because as you say, you wouldn’t daily one of those!

Just bear in mind, maybe stating obvious, used prices are inflated right now, F not as badly impacted by supply as others, the depreciation will return. And it’s not small, maybe not a factor but do not go in eyes closed. Also consider servicing costs, they are significant and annual. Oh, and the fuel. 90 litres of v bastert best part of 150 notes, and gets you 200-250 miles. Less if rev limit tested.

Seems Porsche treat actual customers better than potential ones.
I approached them 3 times, never got back to me so their loss. Treated me with scorn it felt like? Ferrari have been totally different. Porsche colchester won't be getting my business.

Re: Porsche sweet spot?
Just to add to this thread. I bought a 488 spider last year, love it!
On Monday I'm collecting a 992 Turbo S, they're taking my RS6 as trade in to save me the hassle of selling privately.
Still looking for a home with garaging.
