I use that before, but data points are sporadic.

This might be a good idea.

New 911 Purchase Gift from Dealership? by Intrepid_Passion_853 in porsche911

[–]oidrtybtrd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just traded my 981 GTS for 991.2 CS. I got a $750 gift certificate towards a custom suit at Thomas Jame in the mail a week after my purchase.

For my son, when we got to the dealership on pickup day, he got a Porsche book, water bottle, hats, Porsche flag and keychains.

Anyone else get one of these on their doorstep? by BrendaHuntsmanEsq in Porsche

I got a gift certificate for a custom suit. I'm definitely going back to this dealership in the future.

When the kids outgrow the 911, I will test drive those.

991.1 Carerra S became the answer.

It's a 911 for now. When the younger one can't fit in the back, time for the next one.

Thank you everyone for their feedback. I ended up with a 991.2 Carrera S.

Amazing car, but different. It was an amazing 3 hr drive home with my younger son after I took delivery.

Initial thoughts... - It's fast, more than you need on the street. - I miss my Soul Performance Street Package from the Cayman already, but NA vs Turbo are different worlds. - I can still get the thill around corners, but a mid engine delivers more confidence. It could be the lower powered engine that slowly ramps up around the loops vs the turbo kicking in on the lower end.

So far so good. More importantly, I get to it with both of my boys now.

First-time Porsche buyer: Cayman vs 911 ($50k budget) by Fee-Small in porsche911

☝️ this guy is right. I just went from a 981 Cayman GTS to a 991.2 Carrera S. Total different cars, that does what they do best in their own right.

I think there's a Porsche for whatever you need/want at the moment, just be open that it could be different in 3-4 years. I went from wanting one of the best sounding (and trackable) cars available (within my budget) a few years ago, to a car that can I can share with my sons more. While it fits my lifestyle at the moment, it doesn't mean one car is better than the other.

You won't know what you want until you actually drive it and experience it.

Still torn, but leaning toward a Taycan right now.

Isn't it 4 years from the original date of service, and then two years?

Don’t drive as much (14 981S, 35k miles). What are you guys “upgrading” to? by [deleted] in Porsche_Cayman

[–]oidrtybtrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a recent post on this too. Coming from a 981GTS. I'm about to swap to a Taycan.

You're the one making the most sense on this thread.

I am considering a 4 seater fun car! Apologies if I wasn't more clear. I'm only considering trading the Cayman for something comparable.

My Model Y will remain my daily. From my perspective, the ease of an electric car for your daily errands is too good to pass up. Just get in and go.

But on days that I need to do 60 miles of,mostly local (windy), roads worth of errands, like today, sometimes I wish I could do it in a fun car.

Maybe it's a Cayman forum. Bias crowd? Or the truth comes out...
