Default Update: The '17 991 Carrera S in Miami Blue...

The 2017 Miami Blue Carrera S (with around 5500 miles) has sold. Was at the dealer yesterday and the car wasn't where it was the last time I was there. Today I was at the dealer again -- yesterday the invoice for my Boxster wasn't ready, today it was -- and I asked about the car and was told it was sold.

Two people looked at the car. The "joke" is they put more miles on the car test driving it than the owner did in the months he owned the car.

The 2nd person who looked at the car bought the car.

I spoke with the car's previous owner and he confirmed the car sold, and at the $119.5K price.

I am amazed and yet not amazed the car sold for that price. While it seemed like a pretty optimistic price and I'm amazed the car went for that price OTOH the car was fantastic looking and tricked out to the max. While all the electronic foo foo is not my cup of tea obviously not everyone feels like I do. And besides the electronics it had some tasty hardware: PDCC, rear axle steering, PDK, PCCBs, ASR, ABD, PASM Sport suspension, Sport Exhaust system, Chrono package, and so on.

That options list sounds like a large serving of Alphabet Soup!

When I learned from the original owner the car was coming on market I was interested in the car and did some research to get a feel for what I thought the price would be (based on my research my estimate was low) but when the car was listed for $119.5K I lost interest.

Well, I lost interest in buying the car, but I was still interested in seeing how long the car remained unsold and then when it sold what was its selling price.

It sold quicker than I thought -- though I'm glad for the original owner it sold quick -- and it sold for more than I thought it would -- again I'm glad for the original owner.
