997TT Opinions needed

Is this a decent deal? It's local, higher miles, good price?

Opinions? What to check for?

Your link is broken. If its the gray TT, not at that price, I dont think anyway. I contacted them and they were firm. Albeit, this was via email. 55 i think is a good deal.

They'll move a little, they claim it's perfect and very clean... May go look, it's 2 hours away. A steal is impossible usually at a dealer, but I'm looking for a good deal

Same one Im talking about. Your local so that may have some benefit to you, there are others with more options and less miles I was looking at for that price, hence why I passed when they said they wouldnt budge from $59k.

looks like a good deal given its past, it's been to several auction houses and sold multiple times within a month or so. I'd definitely bring a paint meter with you....

X Speed Racer X is infamous around these parts
At first, I thought be careful and watch out for bodywork in the rear because the turbo emblem isn't on the engine deck lid. But then I read the overview section within the build sheet and it was originally ordered with an emblem delete option from the factory. As with any purchase, definitely get a PPI.

It's a fair deal at 59, if condition, maint, and accident history are all good. Not a steal, but not overpriced either. if you want that gray, it's a fantastic color and worth something to some. It's not "rare" but I'm guessing most of those lower mile cheaper cars were black and silver, right?

Everything checked out on the car, Ended up getting it for 56,900, seems like a fair deal from a dealer, passed all checks, if it were newer, would have been CPO, No paintwork or issues other than little interior things which is to be expected at this age/mileage.
