Where to get PSS9

Hi!

I'm looking for a PSS9 set for my 1998 996 C2.

Does anyone know of any place its possible to obtain these for $1500 or less?

Will it be possible to them new for this price, since the PSS9 is an outgoing model that is replaced by the PSS10, or will I have to try to get a second hand set?

Obtaining a second hand set might be difficult, since I am a new user and does not have the required number of posts to post a WTB in the for sale section...

Thanks,

pss9s aren't going to get discounted cuz of the 10s. the 10s offer a very tiny marginal gain in terms of real world results. both sets are good street coilovers. more adjustability isn't necessarily a good thing. how many of you guys seriously have time to tinker around with suspension settings in your life? seriously.

the lowest price i've seen is around $1700. i know vividracing sells them. i've never seen it sell for $1500. just eat out less and make up the diff, man.

i'd just buy new. takes the uncertainty/mystery out of it and you don't save that much more $.

The fronts for sure.

But having a GMG roll bar makes changing the rears virtually impossible unless you are a contortionist.
