i have a 991.2 gt3 (manual) and m2c (dct)
911, even a base carrera, is the better sports car. it was designed as one from the start, it didn't start life as a 35k 228i and then get beefed up. If you look at lap times and performance figures the carrera matches the m2cs everywhere despite being on shittier tires. the m2cs pulls away after 60-70mph as it has more engine. https://fastestlaps.com/comparisons/u773k13amv2b But that being said...almost nobody orders or wants a base carrera. its a stripper model. it doesn't even get an LSD and you can't option one. If you are going 911 at the very least you want an S model. My vote is for M2cs. will hold value much better. m-dct is nearly as good as pdk. you have usable back seats. servicing costs are more reasonable. and its more fun on the street.

I love the idea but can't help thinking the front looks too much like Sid from Ice Age

Whatever you do don’t buy that car from Riverdale Kia. That dealer is a POS

Thank you everyone for the advice!
Posting in here again with an update. The M2CS is now down to $82,599 one month later. Their trade offer for my car has gone down $2500 but they’ve lowered the price of their car $5200. It makes me nervous that this car won’t hold value well like the M3/M4 CS cars. Do I still go for it? Also, in response to buying an M2CS manual, the least expensive one is $10-15k more than this DCT one. Hence why I was considering trying DCT. |

I think it's down to your gut feeling and where your heart ❤️ is. If it's a dream to have a P-car. That's your answer. Don't let an internet forum make your decision. The CS is very understated. It's not going to impress your friends. It's a great daily with across the board utility. Drive from the track to Costco. The P-car you presented is not something I'd buy. I'd get a better spec. I always advise to look inward and follow what resonates with you. The CS will always have a high floor because owners, at some point, will no sell them below a certain threshold. There are too few of them. Those that have them know what they are.

It seems used F87 CSs have been trading at MSRPish recently? So some of the uncertainty about value has been answered. Most cars are not investments though. 600ish came stateside? And some will never change hands. Drive it and enjoy… |

there is a m3cs for sale on autotrader with no accidents and 20k miles asking 70k (original msrp around 100) and there are fewer m3cs in the united states than m2cs.
