Do you have matrix beam and PDLS?

What made you choose Car 1 over the Car2 in this case?

In Norway the warranty is 5 years for general and 8 years on battery. Not sure if warranty would be a dealbreaker? What do you think about the price?

Yes, I have the matrix beam. I also noticed car 1 has the adaptive cruise control. I use mine to commute 120 miles round-trip 2 to 3 times per week. When my radar needed to be recalibrated and I did not have cruise control for a week the drive became more mentally taxing after a long day of work.
Absolutely love the cruise control and consider it a major rationale of my purchase.
Price appears to be in line with what’s happening in the market. But I absolutely would still try and bargain lower. You’re in the driver seat right now. It’s a buyers market.
I have a similar warranty as well. With this car being older, I would definitely request a discount from the listed price as well as make sure to always have a warranty extended.

How is the process with extending the warranty seller? The car does not seem to have matrix or PDLS+ not sure if it is a dealbreaker?

advertise car for 800 000 nok aka 73k usd, but was willing to go down in price if buying fast.

 

[Ducs]

I have CPO+1 but once that expires, I will need to further extend the warranty. I have yet to cross that bridge. I’ve only had my car about seven months.

I’m not certain about what the car is like without the matrix lights. I don’t think that would be a dealbreaker for me, but others might have different opinions.

For me the adaptive cruise control was most important, as well as 21 inch wheels, (I simply prefer the look), ceramic coated brakes, performance battery, all wheel drive, and I desperately wanted the chalk interior with frozen metallic blue. I was very lucky to find this build out used with less than 14,000 miles on it.

Other than having to calibrate the radar one time ($650)I have had 6000 miles of worry free driving. I’m loving it so far.

Neither for me but out of those two car#1

As the happy owner of a 2020 4S, I would also vote for the more richly-optioned and lower mileage 2020. I would inquire about the service history, however. If there was a lot of trouble, then I might change my mind.

Which one would be the ideal for you in general? So I get you would pick the 2020 of those two? Why?

Any tips on how I can get the service history?

 

[Caraholic]

None of them have all the options that I would personally look for. However the 2020 has more options and is lower mileage.

Which options are you missing? just curious

Unfortunately, it is kind of country-dependent. In the US, I would get the VIN and do a search either via CarFax or ask a Porsche dealer that I had some kind of relationship with.

As long as you have the Porsche warranty , you should be ok. My 2020 Turbo has been off the road for 4 weeks with a suspected high voltage issue. I will get rid if it ever comes back, in spite of the massive depreciation. It’s all a big issue.
