Pre-owned Porsche Driving Experience car

Guys -

I looking to buy a pre-owned 991.2 Turbo-S. It has 16k miles on it and according to PCNA, they have a notation on the car of PDE and demo. This makes me think the car was used in the Porsche Driving Experience as a track vehicle and maybe later used as a demo. But I have no way of knowing the split in the miles.

I can get the car with CPO. Is it worthwhile to get a car that was used in the PDE?

Thanks for help on this.

I would purchase a different car if they are looking for anything close to market price.

Porsche of Conshohocken has a pre Owened silver 991.2 turboS you can get a nice discount on. Ask for Todd Smith. Just bought a new one from him. Nice fellow.

The PDE cars are well maintained, and as long as it does not look ragged on the interior, I would have no hesitation if it's the car you want and has CPO. With 16k miles, it should have a nice discount, too. Probably in the $160-170k range.

I drove a used 2017 TTS with about 16,000 miles in Chicago area. Sapphire blue. Was a bit unloved on the exterior and interior. I passed on it. If I'm paying that much I want near perfect.

So they have demo cars that tour the country with Porsche drivers that basically give owners rides and they run WOT for 90% of there life, that would be a hell no for me as well

It would have to be at a HUGE discount and even then I would probably pass. Just too much non-abused inventory to choose from.

Besides wear items, and having the suspension bushings checked out, what else? The transmission inspected, the engine rev history (forgot what it's called) and an oil analysis and compression check?

How long do they keep the cars at the track experience and how many miles before the turn them over?
