did some reading and apparently the PDK does throttle blip on downshifts. I couldnt hear it.
With my old M3 and ginatani race exhaust it was a very clear blip.

You have to ask yourself why is it a steal?
It generally is because they can't move it. It might be that there just isn't the demand for slightly used Porsche's, so they just loose their value.

If you are bored with the X5M, then do it. If not, you might find yourself in the 911 and miss having four doors and the room.
I mean, you have the cobra when you want a sports car.

Don't just do it because it looks like a good deal; 24 months is a long time.
