You are correct that not many manual 991s are being made but the demand for them is minuscule. My buddy just sold his mint, low miles black 991S w/manual and it took quite a while w several price drops. I also have another friend w 2015 991 GTS manual, just saw him Christmas Day at our shindig.
Interestingly, neither guy is a huge "car guy" but they both like a good Porsche. ![]()

I traded in my 997S for an E-350. I love it. Comparing the 2 is, of course, silly.

Those porsches don't have those $8K high tech Mercedes LED headlights.
Don't you care about the safety of your wife? |

Its tempting... you can buy a nice Ferrari 360 for used 991 money. Nice little around town car, but not so great for highway trips between Montana and California.

Back in 2002 when some of you guys were teenagers I bought my wife a loaded Camry. She really wanted a Jetta but for reliability I talked her into the Camry. Meanwhile 15 years later she likes it now and it bores me to death. If I had to do it over again. Just saying.
