Used 2013 Porsche 911 Consumer Reviews
Porsche 991 911S
$70,000 for a 2012 used car seems excessive. The car proved to be pampered by previous owner and a very high quality vehicle. It is purely for entertainment of anyone who likes excessive technology and electronics, although quickly dated. There a lots of buttons and gizmos seem unnecessary. Although understated, the vehicle intimidates jerks on the road and gets annoying attention. Having owned at 911SC for many years, this car brings back memories, but pampers drivers. I think the car appeals to old men with means. Excessive road noise, automatic stereo plays whenever car is re-started, no oil dipstick (only automated display) and no access to engine are annoying. 4 years later - no issues, reliable and pleasure to drive. Do my own simple oil changes with nothing else needed. New 992 models offer little more than what this car offers. 2022 and the car still looks and operates like new. No issues and value has increased. This is the perfect model: 400 hp, normally asperated, with PDK. I have no desire up purchase a newer model. The car is well made, has modern features, extremely reliable, cheap to own, with great gas mileage. I'm certain it one of the best models, new models look and drive the same. Update: still as attractive and reliable as ever. I use it as an economical daily driver. Continue to use as daily driver after 6 years, it's reliable, comfortable, and excellent MPG. A practical choice indeed

Porsche has thought of everything and aced it
Every element of the car is near perfect. Beauty, performance, luxury, reliability. Cost is prohibitive to many, but if you can afford it get one and you’ll never look back. The 911 is one of the most refined vehicles ever created and each generation improves upon the previous, though that is debated by some. Sunroof was a surprising must for me, and I’ll never get one without - for what that’s worth to your buying decision. I’ve had a Honda Prelude (when I was younger), Acura, Lexus, Ford Mustang, and a Cayman. 911 smokes them all by a mile. Cayman S does give it some competition. Even the base 911 is a super car with everyday driving aptitude.

911 coupe s (991 version with PDK)
What a nice car! I have had the previous version with both cabriolet and coupe s and this version is significantly better than both. It's like having 2 cars in one. If you want to push it, it's a Porsche and responds instantly. If you want to drive sedately, then it can be comfortable and composed. The new steering and suspension are top notch; not too stiff, but keeps the car flat when pushed. The PDK is the best; forget about the manual. Only downsides are the price and no place for your sunglasses or phone. User interface is also not the easiest with the touchscreen, but that's just nitpicking. If you can afford it get it.
Fun car to drive
We have a 2013 Porsche 911 cab (not an s). It is as good a quality as we have ever had (had over 100 cars). Fun to drive, good ergonomics. It is a sports car and rides as such ... not a gt tourer. Weakness is that for $115 thousand, it should have a backup camera, satellite radio and key-less-go standard. It does not. So the car is rather unsophisticated. As of Dec 31, 2013 we have 8500 miles on the car.
Deutschland Express
Ist sports car outside of American muscle cars. This pocket rocket rocks! Getting in and out is a bit of a struggle for a 71 yr. old but once you are seated, it is very comfortable. This Carrera GTS 4 holds the road like fly paper. Running the Smoky's or the popular Dragon, you are in control all the way. Get lots of complements on the car and Fall runs with the top down is a rush. Granted there is the sticker shock factor but what engineering, the six speed manual is a short smooth throw. 1st gear winds up fast, second is when she starts to bite, third, you are on to warp speed and the rest is velvet. There is a Porsche club (PCA) where you meet some great people and go on drive outs and over nighters as well as social nights. In all it is a great car, if your a gear head or just like pop out the pipe, you will not be disappointed with this car.
