From my surfing the ads, I think so.
Any other particulars about the car you willing to share?

Sounds about right given that it has the right options like sport chrono, adaptive seats, heated seats, etc.

If its CPO with Sport Chrono and a few more options I say real good deal.

I think it depends on the options and whether it is CPO. You state navi, 6-speed, 13k miles, which really gives pretty much zero info. All turbos have navi. If it has sport chrono, adaptive seats, diff-lock, then at that price it is a good deal. If it has those options PLUS CPO even better deal. If it is missing some of those options then I would say average deal.

Thanks guys, here's what I know thus far..... FULL LEATHER, NAVIGATION, SPORT CHRONO, HEATED SEATS, DYNAMIC SPORT SEATS, 3M BRA, FIRE RETARDANT SYSTEM, CD CHANGER, SHORT SHIFT

I was perusing for something else, then saw this car. I need to double check on the CPO.....

Full leather is standard. By dynamic sport seats, I assume you mean adaptive sports seats. Only must have option it does not have is the diff-lock. If it is CPO then $88k is a great deal, otherwise still a good deal. See if you can get more money off. What is the color combo?

Cool....I will ask, it may have diff-lock.....sorry for the stupid question, but what's the diff-lock do?

Color combo is silver/black w/ black top.

If the car is at a Porsche dealer in sw fla then I know the car. It is a rat. I tried to buy it but it wasn't a nice car by any means. The dealer paid 82 or 81 for it at the auction in Orlando earlier this year in feb. Could be a different car but the numbers and color are the same.

Btw. This car had 21-22k miles

Yes the car was not nice. It had an aftermarket stereo in the trunk and nothing worked. The interior had scratches in the leather etc....

I doubt it's the same car because the OP's original post stated the car he is looking at has 13k miles.
