Yeah, I almost bought that car twice. I had the second highest bid the first time it sold on EBay, and the higest bid when the auction ended early the second time ( I was living in LV at the time).

I was looking at the title in the FS section at first and thinking that this seemed fairly high priced, and then I reread the title. I thought that this was an 02 turbo. Wow this is an awesome price for an '05 S. I really wish that this was about 12 mo. from now so that I could buy it. GL w/ the sale. Someone is getting a great deal.

If only it were a 997 GT2
Anyway, a very nice car and as you said, the miles are killing it. At least you were the one to get the benefit of the miles. While the price is extra right and the car should have so much life left, you know it's tough. Heck, my car has only 10,000 miles and it's not moving either. G/L though!

Tough market? and Tough buyers? First time I heard a car was too cheap
Anyways, people with real money are now having to rethink a $60K purchase. For example, my local Porsche dealer has most '08 models discounted $20K off msrp...2 years ago I would've ran over there, today I sit & watch. Best of luck on a great deal !!!

I hope you're in some serious dire straits financially to be selling it at that price...that's just ridiculous...and isn't helping an already depressed 996 market. If you have time on your side...you can definitely get more than that!!!

I don't actually wish it on him obviously...but I'm just hoping there's more of an explanation for selling a car like that for that price. It's the ONLY explanation really!

How about this, give me $75K for it (that's what KBB, Edmunds, and NADA say it's worth) and that way I'll be happy and we can simultaneously bailout the 996TT market!

59K sounds right, have you taken it to a dealer to see what they would give you?
I willing to bet it's a lot lower then what your asking.

There ya go...that's the attitude!!! Kbb says 56k trade-in for mine...i was offered $51k. How you go from $75k private sale to $59k just defies all logic!
that said...good luck to you!

Price change! I'm tired of all the complaining about this car being priced too low so here you go...$73K...is that better?
