This one is up on ebay and autotrader...2007 997 Turbo Blue\Beige 50k miles manual trans they are asking $60k...
...seems too good to be true but I have not followed the 997 Turbo market as of late.

Thoughts?

The listing says no accidents and the Autocheck summary doesn't show any either. Is something being suppressed or hidden here?

I read that thread as well and couldn't really determine if it was the same car as this. Two different dealers are involved as well.

Well even if it wasn't in a accidents, I wouldn't buy a Turbo with 50K miles when there so many with less then 20K..

your post makes no sense. The OP obviously is looking for a cheaper one and came upon this one, if he wanted to spend 80k or more he would be asking about one with 20kmiles or less

Correct I don't care about the high mileage. I guess it was in an accident and that is why the price is low.

Thanks
