Default Just bought a CPO 05 997S

Hey Guys,

Joinging the group, I'm back..
you can see from my avatar tis will be my 11th pcar in 3 years..lol

someone traded an 05 997S last week , launch car with pccb, adaptive seats
pretty much everything 30K miles, couldnt resist mid $50's , orig msrp was $100+ so I had it cpo'd and theyre still doing the inspection , i told them the clutch was pretty hard, and I want all new tires

I'll post pics when I get the car back.. I'm sure I will keep this one longer than 6 months

btw anyone wants an 07 530i with 4,000miles, m5 wheels.. orig msrp was
$54K , Carlsen Porsche selling it for $47K

Considering the car has PCCB, that about 20K below market value. Even if this car does not have a clean title, it is still 10K below market value. If it's too good to be true, well you know the rest.

Mid 50-ies! Lucky dog, but than again it may be a sign of where the market is going. 997 is the most produced 911 afterall. Enjoy. I hope to be able to pick a similar one up for a similar price

Mid $50s?

I've never seen one that low and I have been looking. Guess I need to clean my glasses and look again.

Did you see the Carfax on the car? Any blemishes? If the car is clean, that is a monster deal. Enjoy.
