Cool Good deal: 2007 turbo with 900 miles at $121k?

I found a Black 997 Turbo with 900 miles only and light options for $121k from a private buyer in California with clean title:
  • sport chrono
  • thicker steering wheel
  • rear axle lock
  • cd changer
Is this a good deal? I will only keep the car for about 1-1.5 years and dont want to take too big of a hit when i sell it later.

Thanks for any input.

Not bad, not great. I paid $113 similar options, plus giac and pccb, and pss10s. The car is a CA car, and 9 out of a 10. You can probably do better by 5k or so. Just wait for the right seller.

Yeah 8k miles on a turbo will make a big difference in price compared to 900 mile car that is not even broken in yet.

I was trying to see if I should hold out out and see if this price should be lower compared to market.

900 miles ? What made him sell it so soon . It sounds fair and has the options but at 121 a new car it not so far off in price , has an extra year of warranty , and has 900 less miles of uncertainty .

Well it is around $12,000 cheaper than the new sticker price so i thought this was a good deal.

What would be a fair price?

I looked around everywhere and they are selling for $122-$128k for a car that is between 3,000-7,000 miles.

The car is missing sport seats which is a real bummer for me.

WOW, 113k is a sweet deal, with the extra goodies..how did you find that, was it a high mileage car? They all seem to be hovering around the 118 to 125 range

The add for miles on that is like 7 grand. If you dont car about 3 or four thousand miles on your car pick up one with more miles. Who cares anywho, its still under warranty.
