In my experience when I was looking for my C4S Cab(which is for sale btw
) the over the 10K mark is a psychological mark for the luxury car buyer..it usually drops the price 3k on a porsche, maybe even more for a Turbo..?
Yes, these cars were built to drive but most seldom ever push the cars to their potential as where are you going to get above 5000 rpm on a day to day basis..within seconds your doing over 100mph. These cars are unreal, the Turbo is crazy, but call me crazy because I looking to get one.
My friend has an 06 CS with 50k, tracks the car and he has never had a problem,well..except he goes through tires and brakes like crazy. You want a car, IMO that hasn't been tracked or a lot of mods as this might have warranty issues.
From Oct 08 until Feb there were alot of cars around...I have noticed the low mileage cars are being bought up..CAB season is upon us and in the past it gets hard to find them once May hits(atleast in the Northeast)
Good luck.

You do realize that an EVT700 can be placed on that tiptronic cab making it a monster . Maybe I'm ahead of myself . First you have to get the car,
BTW -I just sold my Tubi exhaust and techart springs . It would have been a nice start into the car that you don't have yet.

I guess, as a buyer, than you want a car with 11K, price is less and the miles are not too high. You can get one with 20K and up, but like with most fun rides in life, after a little breaking in, extra use generally does not improve things for the long haul.

I second the idea of finding one of a Porsche forum like this or one of the other well known ones. Forum members tend to be enthusiasts that take better care of their cars and are a LOT better to deal with during a transaction. I bought and sold several cars on this and other forums, all were great experiences.

We have pretty much decided to wait and pick up a Turbo cab, hopefully by end of summer if the right color combination, price and year can be found. time to do some research and see what i can come up with. Now to sell my car!
