Nice buy

Why it's good to list ALL THE DETAILS in posts not just links like we've said 1,000,000 times before.

Model and year
Asking $
MSRP
Miles
VIN #

Pics and build sheet a PLUS

Makes HFS a better resource

Worth repeating! Look at the 997 deals thread for an example of how out-of-date and relatively useless a thread is for actually looking back at previous cars to value a current car compared to HFS!

Understandably, sometimes you might be on your phone or short of time and only have a few seconds to throw up a link, but hopefully we can make that the exception rather than the rule...

Check out this listing: https://texasdirectauto.com/for-sale...AA2A99ES106887

Pricing mistake? The Autocheck on the listing doesn’t work, but I checked carfax and it shows 3 owners. The last 2 owners held the car for 4 months and 2 months. https://www.carfax.com/api/consumers...50238447e5c5a2

Pricing mistake or not, buy it! Let them sort it out later.

1. Look up one post from yours?

2. Car was listed at $66K a few days ago, so I'd say yes, mistake in the listing and your not buying that car for $27,277 unless it caught on fire in the past few days... (see google cache image from January 4th showing $66K price)

Update: I put a refundable deposit on the car. They emailed back an hour later saying it was a pricing mistake and that the price is $62K. The listing has been removed from their web site, but of course I printed a copy. Given how big of a mistake this was, not sure I can do much about it.

+991.1

I looked at the 997 thread last week and didn't last more than a few minutes. A sea of links that I don't want to spend time clicking through. Thorough detailed posts with pics and info would make it more enjoyable.

By the way, I'm ALWAYS accessing HFS from my iPhone X !! Never a desktop, etc ..

If I can do it, anyone can.

Actually a funny story, wife and I stopped by local dealer Champion in Pompano Beach FL to test sit the 14 way and 18 way seats as both had popped up in cars I was looking at. Brian walked me over to show a new arrival... yup.. thE GTS was over budget as I was really looking at older 991.1 cabs. But it was perfect, so some discussion about stretching the budget and off for a test drive. Wife had a big a smile as me especially after she drove it.

He he told us the #’s including trade value.. Put a deposit down right there.

Here’s the build sheet, $102,000 for the car which I felt was very fair.
