I am feeling super lucky to have found this car. Found it late one night while surfing. 2018 991.2 Carrera T w manual transmission and rear wheel steering in Miami Blue. Here the kicker, the car only has 2,300 miles on the odo. I didn’t realize how rare this car was until I started digging. In 2018 Porsche only built 308 Carrera T’s. Of those only 16 were Miami Blue and of those only 11 were manual transmission. That’s only 3.5%. If I had ordered this car myself I don’t think I would have checked any more options than what this car has. Though, I probably wouldn’t have ordered a sunroof, which this car also has. Excuse the dirty car. It hadn’t even been detailed before I got pics. Apparently the owner of the dealership has a good friend who buys lots of cars from him. Clearly he doesn’t drive them much. I was told he has so many cars, none of them get many miles put on them. Lucky me.

Beautiful car. Can't wait to see in person. Let's have another meet soon. I want to see what Miami Blue looks next to my Shark Blue.

I say 20% below MSRP. I don't see Peanut paying near MSRP.

He always gets the good price. I meet a friend of his at a car show this last Sunday that helped him buy my four-five factory Fuchs wheels (with good race tires) for like ~$500?

We are all going to a big Christmas party at a famous racer's big house with garages this Sunday, I'll get some pictures. He has a great Jaguar D-type race car.

Looks like blue to me. Are we talking about the same car? The whole thread has been about that beautiful blue Carrera T.

Hi Steve,
I have two cars. A Classic 73S in Sepia Brown and a modern 2018 Carrera T in Miami Blue.

Just saying as Peanut (Mark) has been around Porsche cars for a long time.

I remember when he bought the 1973 911S Sepia Brown car. We all thought ~$50K was big money at that time. Peanut bought the car which was great buy. The darn original car is worth ~+/- $200K today with the matching numbers engine and transmission. All numbers match the car and paint.

So recently, he found a rare 911 Carrera T. Go figure.
