Guys those of you that have your fingers on the pulse of used Porsche values does this seem like a 'deal'?
Moderately optioned Grey on Black 6-Speed with Sport Chrono.

A little disappointed regarding the test drive........super s l o w compared to the 996TT with K24/18G/s so can't pull the trigger with out substantial financial incentive.

All thoughts most welcome.

I bought a 07 tonite that was heavily optioned (150,559 sticker), perfect condition, 8k miles for 89.5, CPO will add approxiamtely 3 grand. Also has a clear bra on the front, and comes with the car cover. Not the best deal in the world, but originally they wanted 100k. My guess would be that you have wiggle room on that price.

Thanks man. I am thrilled. I could see this thing as something I keep forever, which I honestly have never felt about a car.

Not the deal of the century but a fair price if its clean one owner with the options you want.

Getz - that's a great deal! congrats. Just remember, it doesn't matter what others paid as long as you love the car and the price was within the reasonable range. I tend to think clean one owner cars fully optioned under 10k miles will definitely carry a market premium (ie, high 80s to low 90s).

A tad high. You get what you pay for. Pay for what you want!

Getz,
I think you did very well on the car. I am sure you know that the good well optioned cars with the right color combo,etc. are not that numerous once you really check around. Plus with CPO, no worries, just fun! Congrats and let us know how the experience goes from time to time.

Looking at Getz deal, maybe you can do a bit better, depending also on if it is private or thru dealer, CPO or not, to be a cash deal, financed, leased,etc.. What was the orig. sticker?
