With the exception of NAV, I can't imagine those options are worth much on a second hand car. I have no idea what the car is worth, but I'd take into account the "love em or hate em" options the car has that may make it tougher to sell when negotiating.

hahaha love em or hate em??? You gotta love the aero... But as for the CF interior including steering wheel & shifter, I gotta agree with printemps2001 , only if you love it.

I feel that with those miles -- mid 60's at best . The options add to it the miles substract from it.

On a Porsche ---as soon as the car crosses 10K miles it takes its first depreciation hit . You acn get a new one in the low 80's -true less options BUT certainly adequately equipped.

Here's my question --why pay 67 when a new 08 will run you low 80's ? It's that close and the new car has no miles. Forget the expensive options for a moment --it's a used car and those options are worth 25 percent of what they cost new on that car .

That's why I said mid 60's. I would say low 60's of the car had those miles and lacked the aerokit .

Simple Answer: I have a budget

69,999 is fine with me. Low 80's is not.

I wish this wasnt the case as id be driving a Gallardo or 997TT if i had no sense...but my time will come

I guess? lol...i havent owned an Infiniti for over two years. Had my Evo 9, S2000, and Cayenne as my most recent rides. And while i do love the Infiniti line, i am done with them for now - trying to move on to otehr things.

I really just want to try as many different cars as I can to be honest. Porsches, BMW's, Ferrari's, Corvette's, etc.....but right now i kinda have my eye on the 997S

I paid $70 for mine in October, it only had 7000 miles, options included were;

Factory Short Shift
Adaptive Sport Seats
Nav
Bose
Carrera Classic's with Coloured Caps
Parktronic
Dimming Mirrors
Porsche Crest in Head Rest

Car was like new, I could not find a blemish in the paint anywhere.

Hope this helps with you pricing.
