Question Advice wanted: Keep/sell/trade 08 C4S?

Ok, so I managed to buy the car out of the lease, for actually a decent price so I now have some flexibility. With all the discounts on the 09s, what kind of reasonable price can I expect at trade or private (yes, I checked KBB but that's not that accurate obviously)?

Car is immaculate, always garaged, meteor/black with full leather, ***, PSE, SC, 6spd, sport shifter, red tails, thicker sport steering, 4k miles. Ideally I'd like to get into a lightly used TT or perhaps a Gallardo or R8, would I be better off waiting until spring for the prices to perhaps stabilize a bit?

Thanks!

Since your in norush try to sell it yourself and then move on your next car.

Your car may increase in value in the spring but will the cars you are thinking of buying.

good luck

carfan has a spectacular aura aboutcarfan has a spectacular aura aboutcarfan has a spectacular aura about
4K miles is nothing !

Drive your car more, enjoy it !

If not, you might buy the used TT or R8 or whatever, again almost not drive it and then sell it for another car...

I don't understand such people, changing cars again and again and not enjoying ANY of them

Ridleyguy is infamous around these parts
The depreciation is so high (at least in Canada) on an '08 C4S that IMO no Porsche trade is likely to make financial sense. I was quoted $78k (dealer) on a car that had an MRSP of $124k.
