Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

What options do you want, this has very little?
POST 3Original post
Having had a 981 gts with nearly all the options, if it were me I'd be looking for one without those smaller wheels. Also ideally with climate control & Porsche Sports Exhaust button. Am sure it would still be a riot if you are budget-limited.
POST 4Original post
Agree not many options and the wheels are a bit small, but definitely less to go wrong, no expensive dynamic engine mounts etc. A cheapish option to improve the sound without PSE is the Carnewal back box replacement (same box just reworked internals), have it on my 3.4s and it makes a real difference without being offensive in any way.

I particularly like this one but I think the price is strong... https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202311304...

POST 7Original post
The one in the OP was very much my sort of thing (before I got diseased with wanting leather dashboards and so on). I like the smaller wheels and higher profile tyres on rough UK roads, and I love the manual gearboxes. I think it looks great, and from where I am nowadays, a lot of car for the money. One of my favourite colours, and I love the 2 way basic seats. Have always found them really comfortable. I even like the side stripes. Liam

Look at the boot carpet where the net attaches - looks muddy. Also, the paintwork in the rear hatch aperture next to the bump rubbers is filthy. Poor example IMHO.

Oh you mean the grey one - yep I agree - very poor example.

Does anyone know of any better example available?
