which one cpo'd 2012 c2 vs 2014 c2?

Have some questions on purchasing another porsche to tide me over til the new gt3rs is released.

I am currently debating purchasing a 991 2012 with roughly 10000 km on the odo

-gt silver
-s-pasm, ptv, 20"
-bose
-sport seats plus with heating

or order a 2014 for september delivery with only a few upgrades

- agate grey
- pasm
- sport seats plus

Pricing is not a huge difference between the two but I'm torn, do I wait or should I put an offer down on the used?

thanks

Seems like an easy choice to me. 2012. Neither is the car you truly want. You are going to keep it for just long enough and then trade it. The 2012, has already taken the depreciation hit. It will be worth an amount closer to what you have paid than the 2014 will be. And, you get to drive it now - in Sport Plus out of the box - you don't have to wait for break in.

Just my opinion. Enjoy whichever you select.

I completely agree. You just need it to hold you over until the RS comes out. Heck I would go ahead with a cayman since its just temporary.

You want the coming 991 GT3 RS. So don't get either one of the above. Why bother getting a car you don't want. Save your money !

I agree with this! Buy some other cool toy to occupy you mind for the time. They you will still have the fun toy and the GT3 RS with no money loss.
