Purchase 911 GTS 2018 used give me your opinion

Hi, want to know your opinion about to buy a 2018 911 GTS with the following optionals at $126k. The car has 11,400 miles it is in great condition, was the car of one of the managers in the dealer so never titled yet, not cpo but warranty up to Aug-2021









Thank you!

Beautiful car and not a bad price. Only bad thing is the warranty. i would negotiate a 4 year warranty or consider getting mechanical breakdown insurance (MBI) with your insurance company. I purchased MBI with my insurance company, Geico, for my 2011 Panamera that i purchase as a dealer demo car. The MBI pays for all non-wear and tear repairs over $500....it literally saved me over $8000 on a transmission repair. Generally, MBI can only be purchased on cars that are no more than one year old, never titled, less that 12k miles.

Too expensive. Not enough warranty for that price. Have the cpo the vehicle and buy @ 118k.

I agree...get the car CPO'd...beware, they will try to charge you about $3500 for the CPO. with the 992 coming soon, they should negotiate.

I have a 2018 911 GTS. I ordered it. It took 4-months to arrive, but it came in at $122k. The car is super loaded with the GTS package. The only thing you really need beyond that is the front-end lift. I recommend ordering a 2019.

This car is very loaded. It was undoubtedly used as a customer demonstrator (ridden hard and put away wet). I would definitely want this car to be CPO'd at no additional cost. At $126k it's only a 15% discount. You could probably get this discount on a brand new car in dealer inventory - just sayin'.

OBTW, it may to late to order a 991.2 factory build.

Very few 991.2s allocations are left but if you can find one it may be worth it, depending on the discount. And personally I would pass on the FAL unless you live in an area with lots of steep entrances/exits since you can angle in most without scraping, which is what I do with my GTS but mine just has PASM.

If it was a demonstrator then people,drove it hard prior to engine coming to full temp. Might not be a big deal but I wouldn’t take the risk. Even with cpo it’s questionable.
