Been looking at the new Mclaren 570S as my next car but last week thought I would look at the current prices of 2014/2015 turbo prices and is it just me or is the used market prices dropping fairly quickly?? I've seen nicely equipped Turbos as low as the $120K mark which is beginning to sway me from the $200K Mclaren!! Is there something going on that I am not aware of?? How much further down will the prices go or are they at the bottom??

 

Nothing wrong they just over produced the TT/TTS in the 991 and market is soft on them right now. The better buy may be a TTS for another 15k.

 

I looked for 3+ months for a 991 TT/S and the ones that were in the 120K range had over 15K miles on them.
If you look at the ones with 6K miles or less they are in the 140+ and up and holding their value very well.
I found a 14 with 4000 miles where the owner told me it was pristine condition, turned out to have a CHUNK missing on the passenger side door, he somehow did not want to disclose.
the COP's are well with the 150's and they mostly are 5K or less miles cars very well equipped.
Been doing a lot of heavy research nationwide and finally found me a NEW 991 TT and bought it last night at a killer deal but no where near 120K...
Happy hunting.

 

Could you share the deal you got? Would love to hear more about it

 

I would and post pictures this weekend.
I ended up getting the manager to give me a 6 years warranty (100k miles) with the car at a near used car price. Deal was a cash deal and no trade.

 

I've seen a lot of threads that are "Should i get a new 991 C4S or a 997 TT?"

--I think to myself, why? Why get a new c4s/targa/gts/anything.. when you could get a used 991 TT/s for the same if not a better deal?!

 

Just be careful when referring to "used" TT/S
Just because it's used doesn't make it a good deal. I skipped anything over 10k miles in my search. Nonetheless I ended up buying a new TT.

 

Assuming your budget is around 200k, you might also want to look at 2015 left over huracans 610 -4 and 2016 580-2. Both you will find them in the 210-220k range.

 

I really don't understand the whole "high mileage" mentality especially on Porsches......I drove my 911 as much as possible without a care in the World about the miles. I'd prefer a car with 10-20K miles over a garage queen with 2-3K

 

Your car, treat it however you wish, nothing wrong with that.
Car pricing market doesn't agree with you.

 

I'm not into the s. I'd rather have the TT and sports chrono and skip the fairly useless come track day pccbs

 

PCCBs are ideal for the street and overly expensive to run on the track (though some here do).

I love mine and having driven both, I'd spend the money only for a street car. I don't track the car; I have other cars for that (that are far slower, but disposable and visceral). If someone expects to track the car a lot, I'd expect them to get a regular TT and option it up.

 

Agreed on the PCCB's. I just ordered a Z06 with CCB's as well...and I don't track my cars.

There is a very nice / substantial improvement with CCB's over steel - one I think is well worth the few bucks more initially and over time.

I would hardly call them "useless".

 

Exactly what I've seen. Cars at $120k are not worth considering. Funny thing is that the 14s were sold at sticker or above, and they are being sold at a premium simply because there aren't that many and lots of people want a used one. Also funny is that there are 15 leftovers that can be had for 15%off sticker. Clearly smarter to buy a new one as you did.

 

Dime a dozen in South Florida, try to find a GT3,seen 2 since the 991 was released,and i drive all day running calls
