I've been following the 996 market and I'm astonished to see that 996 turbos are now going for around 34k-40k. links below

I know these guys and they have been holding these cars for a LONG time, probably a couple months easily now. They had no choice but to blow them out cheap with a no reserve. I saw them in person and they showed good. I would advise to drive them first before taking them home.

 

That is an insane amount of car for the money. Porsche will have to stop production for a year!

 

Incredible low prices

 

Parts cars anybody? Just put one up on blocks in the front yard.

 

Yep, they're taking a hit like most other cars. Go to Ferrrari Chat and see what some of the 360s and 430s are selling for. Now that's shocking!

 

Agreed, I've been following the threads over there to, it's crazy. Don't forget the king of all depreciation, AMG. I love em, but 1/2 price in 2 years is crazy.

 

I'm about to drop 52k on a 25k 02 1 owner dealer 6month warranty, stock, with PCM....I've seen some better deals out there but they just seem kinda shaddy to me.

 

Those particular cars have been on e-bay by the seller a few times already, and they don't sell or the deal falls through for whatever reason. They look nice and the one has a new clutch, RMS. If that's a price they'd take I need to find some cash and my down to Pompano Beach.

 

Holy cow...those are insane prices.


Wish I would've seen those earlier!

 

It seems like this is "too good to be true" ...if I was the high bidder I would be very careful. This seems like a going out of business sale...bank probably has title, or car listed as collateral on line of credit. A bankruptcy could make this deal sour very quickly.

Or maybe I'm just jealous....

 

Josserman, if you are patient, you can do much better price wise. I think that's on the high end for an 02

 

The seller seems to always have a 996, 996TT, or a M3. So they must sell quite a few or go back and forth to the auction. I have never been by their location. They appear legitimate enough to buy a car through at that price.

 

Nothing new here.

 

Lets be honest. These are 6-7 year old cars with mid-range milage and no warranty. Fifty thousand goes a long way in today's car market. Many newer fun cars, with less miles and full warranty can be had in this price range. Competition is stiff out there.
