You have a 991 C2S, or...997 Turbo in that spec on your showroom? I'm confused.

Im going through this "problem" right now. Im going to be trading in my SUV (that I dont really need) for either a 2010-2011 turbo/turbo-s or seeing what the 991 has to offer. Im leaning towards the turbo because it has speed that just wont wear out, looks clean/fantastic, and I dont mind the car sitting in my garage for years to come. However, I think I would get bored of any non-special car (eg the normal 991) and thats the biggest reason im leaning towards the turbo. Ill still have to drive both though...

I decided to wander over to the U.S site to price out a 991. I'm so sad to see that an equally equipped 991S is still $16,000 cheaper than over here.

Can't sell to Canada. PCNA get penalized from Stuttgart for having the car exported from the US. They have to be in the states for one year after registration. If not we get seriously penalized. Rightfully so.

Yup, we can't buy new from you guys. Recently, some guy tried to sneak one in; he's now pending court, and had his Cayenne confiscated.
