Looking to Buy in near future Turbo Coupe/PDK

Hi, like the title says I want to buy a Turbo with PDK in the next few months, I have never owned a turbo car, Currently own a 2012 CTS V Coupe with a supercharger, Owned a 2010 Carrera with PDK a few years ago nice car but not enough power, The car I want needs to have 15k miles or less, Any color but yellow. What years should I go for? any differences between 09 and 12? What are things I should look for or stay away from? any input would be great, I really like the new 991 models but not enough power unless you get into the GT3 and of course the new Turbo, but out of my price range. Thanks in advance.

Your questions are too vague. "not enough power" ? The difference between an 09 and 12-that's a long list of stuff. I think you need to be more specific.
First of all what is your budget. (no PDK in 09) best of luck

There is NEVER enough power :-)

I am very partial to the 997.1 (first generation 997) bu they did not have PDK. Those started with the 997.2 generation cars.

OK, to be a little more clear. I want to keep price at or around 110k, I want a PDK trans, I want a warranty CPO? any big differences in the S versus non S? What are a few things I should look for or stay away from? My current V has great Torque and HP but as you know it don't compare in the handling dept of the P cars. It will haul the mail and does ride great on the highway but I want to carve the corners. Would like to have under 15k miles. also any good deals on leasing a new model not the new 991 as that is way above my price range, I do love it but my wallet is way to thin.. Thanks for any input.
