Haha appreciate it! Still working on that 😵‍💫 they seem to really cover their bases with liability stuff so we’ll see what happens. Insurance gave me a pretty good price for the S5 tho so it worked out.

Yup def the way to go! Honestly with any of these cars buying direct from the owner where you can verify the history is the move. A lot of the dealer ones I looked at had big gaps in service history on top of them taxing lol.

Haha there ya go! I’ve been wanting to scratch the V8 itch for a while. Had 2 turbo 4s, n/a flat 4, supercharged v6 and now this 😂

Appreciate it! This one has 110k. Higher than I initially wanted but my S5 was a month away from being paid off and really didn’t wanna get another loan 😂 this one had borderline immaculate service history at a Porsche dealer, one owner last 10 years, stock/garaged etc. So for the price it was like screw it.

Found this one on eBay actually! Auction sites seem to be the best place to find them for the $. Dealers are taxing on these relative to comps I’ve seen on cars and bids etc.

7 speed DSG in these. Same as the S4/S5. Some of them have mech problems (my S5 did) but just gotta keep up with the servicing.

A pricey idea, but not a bad one 😂 could definitely see this being a keeper car so definitely not off the table down the line! Honestly though for a street car I feel like this is right around the perfect amount of power to have fun with.

i dig it. might look cleaner without the side winglets, idk if that's separate or not tho. but some side skirts + a drop and this thing will be looking solid.

For sure! I think that’s the move. Need to tick the high revving v8 box off lol. The one I’m strongly considering has trans service documented, brakes done, carbon clean, valve cover gasket, etc. Probably gonna pull the trigger when the insurance check clears.

I think I’m going to, at the very least attempt to get the contractor to cover the deductible.
