Hey guys - about to sell the 996 and enjoying the expertise here for my next purchase. Any thoughts about reliability/accuracy of CarGurus price recommendations:
Good Deal?
Fair Deal?
Overpriced?
Will a dealer give these numbers any credibility in a negotiation?
Yeah, at this point it looks like I'll be keeping my money and they'll be keeping the car. Ah, well.
One thing of note is that the Carfax shows it as entering dealer inventory on June 24th, 7 weeks ago. So the stuff the salesman was feeding me about being "not sure" if the car would be there in 10 days was so much wishful thinking on his part.
It's Porsche of Arlington. The sales staff have a reputation in the DC area and my personal experiences with them align with that reputation.

Does it have to be a yellow manual convertible?
I have a feeling that car is going to sit for quite a while. It isn't cheap, most folks don't want a yellow car, and manuals are harder to sell (especially in a convertible).
For my wife, yeah. She's dead set on both manual and yellow. She doesn't care about the rest, she'd probably be fine with a base. I was a bit psyched because it was a manual GTS convertible.
She's now against this because she likes her Cayman, doesn't like the yellow instrument dials, and doesn't like the look of the alcantara seats or the carbon fiber trim.
Here's a loaded 2014 C4S for sale you can find on the PCA Mart, with low miles, X51, PDCC, Burmeister, LED, etc. Manual tranny too! He is in Dawsonville GA, looking for best offer, but asking $115k

Listed at $115K. Yikes!
I am currently a serious buyer for something in this class/category but that sounds pricey.

The car is solid but it may be time for a new wife!
