It seems to be missing something, can't pinpoint it. The Porsche will always be a Porsche that is built for performance. As much as I love the 997.2, the 991 is a far superior car in almost every way. Interior is way better and those extra 4 inches of wheelbase give it the stability the 997.2 will never have. Personally, I would just bite the bullet and spend another $15K and get a 2012 Carrera S. You know you are always going to want the S. Haha!
yea you are right....I'd want a 991.2 C2S or C4S
i guess i'm really in no rush for a car and I can always wait until i get settled in in toronto first
once i move there in august, I likely wont have a day off until january, so I wont have time to drive anyways

The E39 530 with a manual is about as perfect of a car as you can get. I had a 528i 5-speed. I sometimes regret selling it.

These cars are rare, so book value means nothing.

Moving to TO? I hope you are making allot more money or getting a big promotion skiipi. Most people who moved to downtown TO don't even drive anymore and they are car guys! Hope you make it back to Van one day.

Not too worried about the kms. Would be more concerned for an owner who needs baller tints..

Possible hand grenade if previously moded and not well taken care of.

If car was looked after by dealer regularly, it may still have upcoming problems

Spoiler!
Reading that ad gave me cancer. I'd be pretty shocked as well if I couldn't English.

Still, $4k for a JDM del Sol with that funky roof storage thing seems like a sweet deal.

TransTop is cool as long as you keep it well serviced, because when it breaks...

From what I gathered 335i even for a diyer can be a pain in the ass/expensive

however, something like this is tempting... :|
