No the 6K USAA incentive is off '13's as well. Actually not much difference in discount between 12 & 13. Go for a '13

I played around with it over the weekend on the new 7, and while it is faster (not noticeably, however) and the 3D graphics are cool, I'm not so sure it would be a dealbreaker for me. Probably because I don't really use my NAV all that much. Also, the 3er does not have it yet. Would I like to have it? Sure. Is it going to be a deal breaker for me? Nope. |

The 911 was just too rich, when optioned about on par with the F12. Yes, I know the 911 is a better sports car, handles better, etc., so it's not really an apples-to-apples to comparison. The base 911 seems kind of cheap with no options, and then when you add everything that makes it a liveable car, it gets above 100k pretty quick. Doesn't seem worth it. I would definitely dig the 991S, but then you're easily looking at M6 territory price-wise, if not more. |

iDrive, stereo, 3D maps, shiny this, whistling that.
Seriously, in my opinion if that's what you're buying this car for, then you're wasting your money. There are only 2 important changes, in my book. 1 is the engine upgrade, but hey, do I really need another 50 HP? Probably not. The other is the lack of a left pedal from now on. That's the more important change for me. And in the end, all it means to me for sure is that I 100% absolutely, positively will not be getting another 6 series when the time comes. At the rate sticks are dying, I'm going to have to buy a 2013 Subaru SBZ in a few years... |

I do agree about the '13s with the added horsepower. I'd be depressed to be stuck in a '12. Guess that's why they are nearly giving them away. |

Add on the performance options at the cost of interior comforts and luxury and you get a boring, in attractive interior but a great car for a little over $100k. Add the interior options and skip the performance features, and you get a soft 911 for just over $100k. Add both sets of features and you get the 911 I'd actually consider buying, and it's $135k after making it look good and play good OR Get a 650i and add ARS, contrast stitching, ceramic controls, and a Nappa dash, and you get everything for a reasonable price. I don't argue that the $135k 911 is a superior car, but as a daily driver, my money goes to the *cough* reasonable *cough* 6er.

Fully agree with Southern. Besides, there are simply too many 911's on the road compared to the current generation 6er or even the previous 6er.

If I were going to wait until March I would go ahead and keep waiting until July for this.
