Looking for one with basic options, low miles. Preferebly under 35k miles.
1 owner car, etc.
What do you think I can get one for in Northern California?

No pref for color. Although Silver is a favorite...

 

58-65 depending on how low of miles you want and the type of equipment. I know someone who is selling a 05 S for 67 with 2500 miles and a 93K sticker.

 

WIZO on the board just sold a pristine 997 S launch with miles in the upper 20's for low 60's. It had a GT3 front, Champion wheels, PCCB, full leather, lowered, and many other cool options. PM him if you want a nice car for cheap. BTW it is black

 

Another factor that will influence the price is the amount of factory warranty left.

We're getting within 8 months or so of early production 997s being out of warranty.

 

Thanks! Appreciate the feedback. I think this confirms my research. That's basically 57k-63k is what I'm finding.
I'm trying to find a completely stock vehicle. But thanks for the suggestions/referral! Will keep you posted on my findings.
Thanks again,
JF

 

My old 997S is at Carlsen... 05 launch car, 35K miles i think

you can get that for less than 60K, CPO ... all options..

call Gary Quibelan..at Carlsen Porsche..tell him, Alex from 6speed the caraholic referred you..LOLOL

hopefully it;s still there

 

S. FLA. 2005 carrera S one owner, out the door was $74
that what we paid about a year ago...

 

Mid $50's

 

I was looking at this in September. At that time, I'd say a low miles (<20K) '05 would run $58K, and a couple of grand more if CPO'd. That assumes a normally equipped C2 with a sticker around $80k. Similar '06 would be about $5k more for either figure. S model add about $5k.

Options do alter the value, but the resale value on the options is very poor. Purchasers in the used market are generally unwilling to shell out serious money for Porsche's overpriced options.

FWIW, I bought an '06 (about 15 months old) with less than 10K miles. Felt like a new car at much nicer price.
