New to me 997.2 Turbo

I have been searching for a while and finally pulled the trigger on this pretty clean 2011 Basalt Black Metallic, fully optioned. Lots of nice goodies, 27k miles. Will add PCCBs and a tune. Have a BBI lined up already. All I can say coming from a 993TT, this thing shifts amazing. Love the PDK.

Your car is a dream of a find. I came from a 993 too and the new car feels SO GOOD. When people ask me if I miss my 993... I tell them I certainly would be missing it if I didn't have this car instead. The A/C works 500X better than my 993 which I owned for 12 years. I never plan to sell this car!

Thanks! couldn't agree more. I have my 993 and might sell it next year. I don't even drive it now lol. It's a great car but after driving the 997.2 I said to myself what have I been missing!!! Love everything about it.

I bought mine for $40500 13 years before I sold it 2 years ago and asked $57k for it (felt guilty) and got that amount a few days later from a buyer in Colorado that flew in to buy it sight unseen. Crazy. A/C didn't work. He wanted it anyway.
