I was not planning on buying anything but passed by the dealer today and ran into this car. I ended up paying $107k for it.Its CPO'd and pristine. 171k original sticker. What do you guys think?

Pictures to come

This is a Tiptronic with PCCB
I think this was a fair deal for a CPO

Who cares if it was a fair deal or not. You own it now, and that is all that matters. Enjoy that beautiful cab in good health. And forget what you paid for it, enjoy the Pcar to it's fullest.

Looks like a nice car. Lots of options, nice wheels, low mileage and piece of mind with the cpo warranty. Enjoy!

Nice! I was looking at an '08 w/ 10k miles for $110K 3 months ago - you did good. You're gonna love it.
Congrats.

If its a PDK, I'd say go for it.. I drove a PDK Turbo recently and its sick how fast the shift timing is and the speed at which it performs downshifts/upshifts.. Car **** haha

Guys, no way its a PDK, it's a 2009.

As to the price, if you're happy and you love the car, it's a smoking deal!!
