08s are eligible for the 1.9% financing but no trunk money. Ran through that myself when I priced the 08 vs the 09 I ended up with... Trunk money only works with the 09s when the dealer takes another car off of port and only about 1/2 the dealers are doing that because many are trying to reduce inventory and most of the cars left at port are dogs.
Everyone here (three dealerships) has PDK's . If I wanted a PDK or a C4S ora Cab theres tons of cars . But a manual with the options I want is hard to find . I like rowing my gears old school.
I found one in west palm beach which even had LSD and all the bells and whistles but its another black car and I want something different .
BTW --I did drive a PDK and hands down its wayyyyyyyyy impoved over Tiptronic .

Curious what you guys think is a fair price for the following leftover 2008 C2S: black/black, full leather, heated memory seats, sport chrono, bose and a few other small things, MSRP 93,xxx. I forgot to check if its been punched already, but i'll get back with that. Would really like to hear what you guys think is a fair price given the discounts going around on the 09's. If it helps the dealer claims this car is also eligible for 1.9% financing, which implies it too has the 10K trunk money.

Interesting statement. The PDK is STILL the automatic. The '09 was a good deal, BUT it is year old inventory. In 2 months they will need to clear the car for 2010's. Don't know when the 2010's hit the road. I know the '07's hit the road in August.

I'll get some pictures up soon. Been too busy with other activities 
to pull out the digital camera. The color combo was meteor/black/black.

Good deal on '08 Turbo Cab
What's considered a "good deal" for an '08 turbo cab? That option has come into play for me recently. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! thanks!!!
Although just over a little more than 14 months ago one would think that thats a great price but as others have said..once you title and the 2010 land.. that car is in the low 70's by December IMO. The low miles 06-08 have been drying up since cab season is here...stabalizing prices a bit.
If you test drive a PDK, and don't already own a Tip ..it would be hard not to always wonder if you should have waited for a deal on PDK, it really is a different car but an extra 35k to get there is tough to justify. Best bet is to buy a 06/07 in the low 60's..thats the sweet spot for the C4S cab..your depreciation would could only be 7k a year for the next 3 years if the miles are kept low.
An 08 is a tough call because its the last year of the 997.1 and would have been a un real deal if the 09 changes didn't arrive..the market has changed so much over the last 10 months...08 Turbo Cabs are the real deal at the moment.
