Platinum Silver/Black Includes PDDC (no SPASM), SportDesign Steering Wheel Option B) Build price: $132,485 Listed: $87,900 19.6k miles. Black/Beige Includes Burmester, MF steering wheel, rear park assist It's essentially PDDC versus Burmester and the color combo. I'm not a big fan of black, having owned several black cars over the years (they looked great in the show room!), but I thought the Black/Beige is in just a bit better condition overall. While the Burmester does literally sound pretty amazing, I want to hear the music from the PSE open! I really couldn't tell much difference with the PDDC, though the route I took didn't provide much opportunity for twists and turns. Oh, and I like the dealer selling the black one more than the Silver...for what that's worth. Appreciate any thoughts!

Of the two, I would buy Option A in a heartbeat over Option B. First, not keen on beige interiors (...or beige anything, for that matter); second, hate the look of MF steering wheels ("hate" is a strong word that I don't use often); third, PDDC likely more valuable to how the car drives/rides than Burmeister (you're on the right track preferring PSE to the stereo!); fourth, you're not marrying the dealer--just buying a car--and you can always take your service and other business to the dealer you prefer.

Just my two bits.

Most important thing: Buy a car so you can start driving it! Good luck and enjoy.

I'd call this dealership directly instead of responding to an anonymous Craigslist ad. I'm sure the dealership can confirm.

Car was sold at an auction 8/2015

Not sure about "David's" story about the CEO's car. Was leased and bought @ auction. Just don't PayPal David a deposit!

Don't know about the story but I've had pretty good success with CL finds in the past. You can often find nice deals that someone didn't list on cars.com and autotrader.com yet. As long as you aren't an idiot, know how to fish out a scam, and take precautions for the sale, I think it's fine. Bought my last 3 cars from private parties on CL including an E92 M3 and C6 Corvette. The car I posted was listed in the "for sale by owner" section of CL, so it's a little suspect...really annoys me when dealers post ads that look like private party sales when they aren't.

Here's another I would like your thoughts on.
2014 911S coupe, 150 miles. CPO until 10/15. MSRP around 119k. Currently mid 90k. Maybe a little lower if I'm ready to pull trigger

Thanks

I have the link saved in my iPhone notes. Just replace the VIN, and then I hit the link and takes me to the site.

Maybe have the link copied like I do somewhere and paste into browser.

Hey guys. Won't be too active here this upcoming week. Taking some time off and taking the family on a trip. I'll be checking periodically, but don't have time to chase deals. Keep those hot finds coming
