Thumbs up

Another vote for the GTS!

Plus extra points for the manual.

G/L and let us know what you decide.

Wow, $20k off what is basically a new GTS? That's a no brainer.

Well the GTS sold today. Maybe it's a sign. So now between the Cabrio and the 4S....

now it all depends on what the car's main purpose will be.
I personally would pick the coupe if its gonna be tracked (chasis flex)....but there are others that tracks their cabrio fine...it's just preference

I would go by which car you want to drive and you feel is the best. Don't worry about resale. However, if resale is your main concern, the C4S would likely be the best as you're already getting a bigger discount from the start.

Quite different cars, so I suggest thinking carefully about what matters more to you. A cab is like two cars in one, but an S coupe offers more performance and AWD is a plus if you have to deal with snow. Also, it sounds like it might be time to search more broadly and see what other dealers have.

UCLA: sorry it got away but...... I had a MY2011 GTS on order ( another story ). Base price was about 102k and with options including PDK, sport+, and a few more it listed at 112-3k. Got about 8% off so SP was 103k. Don't know what kind of gimmicks your's had on it to get a manual up to 120K. Obviously I liked the car but remember it was/is basically a C2S with the power kit, sports exhaust, center lock wheels ( which I deleted ) and the wide ***. I appreciate all the optimistic comments about how they are going to hold their value but personally I would not hold my breath. They are still over priced on Ebay but if you keep your pants on for awhile you will find a good PDK CPO for under 100k, particularly in this economy.

I would rather order a 991 or a used GT3?than go with a left over cab or C4S.
