The 992 Turbo S that sold on collecting cars very recently for circa £130k is no longer listed on the “Sold” pages. I wonder why…….
It’s now listed for sale with a dealer at circa £148,991 Dealer must have asked CC to remove from “ cars sold”


Well spotted !

Yeh, for that money you’d want 0-60 in 2.8 secs, 0-100 in 6.3 and 200mph - oh hang on
as much as i like the turbo s and 911, also something that looks a bit special, not just like another 911

Up to 991.2 Turbo s obviously had the same wide body as RS which no other car have….entire range now has same body….accountants win £££.

Also so really needs a Turbo S now the rest of the range is turbocharged ? It’s lost its USP. It’s too quick for UK roads realistically as is a GTS.

The first year of production normally goes to the OPC clients who will sell them three months later….all part of the GT allocation game.

IMO the Turbo and especially the S is the only 'cooking' 992 that looks any good.

I took delivery of a new 992 TS in may of this year just before the price hike. I honestly do not think there is another car that you can plausibly run daily that is anywhere near as capable, it will plod along on a motorway comfortably and it's quiet enough to use the hands free and have a phone conversation something that isn't possible in a GTS. And it will show anything a clean pair of heels on an early Sunday morning cross country drive. Yes it's a deprecation nightmare, but Turbo's ALWAYS have been. It's just the very recent past that has been skewed. Try running a Bentley Continental or Aston and you'll see similar if not bigger depreciation. It's unfortunately all part of the ownership proposition.

A friend was offered a new car (coupe, not cab), sitting at the OPC now, for £160k some £50k off the nominal list price of £210k. It was a quiet offer for a quick sale and he's thinking about it.

Interesting thing is that (in my opinion annyway) around £160K is where a new Turbo S should actually be price wise - £210K is simply Porsche ripping the backside out of things. Even buying at £160K new I suspect the car will lose him another say £40K over first couple of years?

I know a 70 plate 992 turbo 7k miles that was offered to a friend for £132,000 but ended up selling for £123k.

Still too rich for me

At least 40k. 991.2 turbo s is 80-90k today which tells you direction of travel. As another poster wrote, these cars depreciate heavily.
