Taffy, did you take a bath on price selling the 991.2 GTS so soon or was it OK?
My Feb 17. GTS Targa 9K Miles made full up retail, from OPC. With no need to advertise. No doubt long lead time on Targa helped. cormeist said:
To confirm- your saying the OPC gave you full retail? What’s the business Sense in that from their prospective ?
No, whilst my car made full up retail. Form a OPC prospective I actually lost very little, bit less than Cost of CCBDs...2 other trade bids all offered around same. I note that some 17 GTS. 2 Targas are 5-6k over list on the used car locator.As for OP, Must haves. Imv the sport design rear completes the back end..

I’ve not posted on this thread for a while since it’s moved onto gen 2 gts and me being a very happy gen 1 owner I was just lurking.
However - having had my gts (dream car) for just over 2 years I’ve started to think about what next. My car is a second car but with kids aged 6 and 4 I find the back seats a must if I’m to use the car often and keep the boss happy. So no gt3, Audi R8 etc for me.
So question to you gents who have moved from gts.1 to .2 - did any of you consider a turbo s now the gts is turbo engine (appreciate the more linear nature of power for gts)?
I was looking at a turbo but some of the previous gts owner reviews above makes me feel a gen 2 for me is worth a look in.
Is it enough of a step up to justify ?

Enough of a step? After 3 days in the car and 500 miles.......YES.However - having had my gts (dream car) for just over 2 years I’ve started to think about what next.

It is no Turbo S but in a way that is a good thing, you can use all the power more of the time, that being said, I have a Turbo S on order because that is an itch I just have to scratch.

Has it been heavy snowing up there??Question - what snow foam do you use and do you apply it to a dry car or rinse it off first (i always find the initial rinse makes it too slippy and the foam comes off too quick - wondering if you have a better snow foam than mine!
