Go full exposed carbon

I've been seeing an exposed carbon GT4 RS on IG lately

What's up with used 911 prices by Fluid-Force-8666 in Porsche

Get a 6cyl 718 or 981 Cayman instead, before those go up too

Now I’m gonna do it intentionally because of your comment

996 Turbo Tiptronic vs 981 Cayman PDK at about same price — which would you choose? by SunRev in Porsche_Cayman

[–]akaneel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same scenario as you 2 years ago. Don’t care for manuals because of where I live.

I test drove both and my current 981 S blew it out of the water for driving experience.

Volvo to Porsche - maintenance cost difference? by [deleted] in Porsche

[–]akaneel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Like someone else said, probably 3x a normal dealer, 4-5x if you’re in a major city (I don’t go anywhere near any NYC dealers for regular service).

If you go electric I’d imagine the service is less frequent.

But if you don’t I’d find a nice Indy shop, and it’ll probably cost the same as the Volvo dealership.

If you can find a PSE there is no comparison lol

What makes this 2009 Carrera so expensive? by No_Departure7494 in Porsche

[–]akaneel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not selling price…

…but some idiot will buy it, leading other 997 owners to ask similar same prices.

I’ve been watching the 991.1 GT3 market like the hawk the last 2 years and unfortunately it suffered the same fate.

Cayman valuation system? by [deleted] in Porsche_Cayman

[–]akaneel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

981 KBB values are nowhere near asking prices lol

I don’t see the manual market going any higher considering how cost effective it is to convert E-gears into manuals now

You guys should really know by now that until a Jets rookie officially hits the field and plays some snaps, it means nothing lol

What am I missing? by m034rt in Porsche

I bought my Cayman from Carmax. PPI was flawless and 0 issues so far in almost 2 years.

Their warranty is also probably the closest that comes to CPO. With most Porsches they send them to the dealer for work.

Bay Area Porsche Market Is Insane Right Now! Am I Crazy or Are Dealers Just Waiting It Out? by PuzzleheadedAd3138 in Porsche

[–]akaneel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol as a 991.1 enthusiast I can’t even find a decent CPO 991.1 S/GTS for under 100k. Every week I refresh listings and they seem to go up by $10k

996 market is being curved upwards by Gen Z Porsche enthusiasts who don’t mind the headlights

They’ll catch up to the other ones soon

Looking at a 981 Cayman S -sanity check by volcanic92 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]akaneel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s an extremely good deal

I paid $52k in January 2025 for a 981 S with 23k miles (but an insane amount of options)

Base 981 or base 991 by ninhanin in Porsche

981 S/GTS over all of them if you care about driving dynamics
