Here's the thing about a car like this one.. If you just want a porsche, you can get one for less.
If you plan to modify your porsche in similar fashion to this one, you will save a fortune. The wheels, k24 turbos, radar system, tint, carbon fiber, suspension, stereo, all add up very quickly. Personally, I dig it and think it's a great deal.

It is a very well optioned car and personally I think it looks great. I believe in paying premium for exactly what I want, so I'd go for it if this is what you're after!

Good luck, TK

Agreed - that is a really well optioned car - sport seats, aero kit, x50 etc. I still wouldn't call it paying a premium given those options, year and mileage.

you're getting a hellova deal on a well optioned car...I would not consider low 50's - mid 50's bad at all for a low miles X50 with some choice upgrades that I desired. remmember X50 cars were already 17K more than the non x50 cars from the factory, they tend to fetch a premium...and some nice mods on top of that never hurt...my advice, don't try to lowball the car it will sell for what it is, just pay it and enjoy the car

Be sure you get a THOROUGH ppi, and NOT from any vendor recommended by Chicago MotorCars.

Independent inspection.

Make sure you don't take Chicago Motor Works word on the car. I purchased mine from them trusting they had taken care of the items found but they did not!
