What is my car worth??

I missed out on that one, but I'm going to be getting something this fall/winter since the prices come down a lot during these seasons...

The dealer likely gave you a premium for your trade so they could make a lot of money on the car they were selling you. Also, prices have dropped in the past few weeks because the summer is coming to an end. Turbo prices always go down in the fall and winter.

Evan,
Keep your car!! I had a chance to drive a 997 C2S this past weekend and although it is an impressive car, its no turbo. It feels slower than my Z8 to be honest. The torque or lack thereof is what really struck me. The handling is world class but the car has become to refined and its not that fast.

At the time I was offered 118k it was during the 04 production run when production was very limited. Once the release of the Turbo S X50's have really taken a bath. So yes it is dissapointing that we have seen such a drop in the past few months. But hell even if I got 118k for my car I would be at a 100k loss.

Thanks for the advice everyone (except limitup who must be a ****** bag), my post was mostly for curiousity. I will probably end up holding on to it (esp. since its supposed to go to Vegas for SEMA and the shootout in Nov.).
Thanks again
