At $64.5k I'd say you overpaid for that car. What's the blemish on the carfax?

They claim parking incident. It looks super clean tho, with nothing obvious to me, but we will see what the PPI says. Really? I can’t find any other aerokit or sport design cars or even similar C2S with those miles for less than $65k at a dealer or even private party.

I could be under valuing the aerokit/sport design stuff. But I bought a C2S with similar specs and miles back in December for $63k and it had a remaining CPO warranty until the following November, no accidents, and some little things like a built in radar detector, clear bra, rennline grills, PASM front lip, keyless entry&drive, Porsche dynamic lighting package, interior light design package. Granted mine was a 2012.5, but there is essentially no difference and mileage probably matters more than 2012.5 vs. 2013.

Seems a fair price.

Sport design package seems to carry a higher price tag than I’d be willing to pay, personally, but that’s a matter of preference.

I disagree since for one that is not a lot of money for a 991 and it appears that you really like the car since it has just about all that you want. Personally I would not have even asked the question since there is always someone that is going to say you paid too much, you should have kept looking, etc. but even if it was a couple grand more than one other person would have paid?! Rest easy in that you got the car you wanted for a price you are comfortable with or you would not have bought it. Now start reading the threads in this forum and enjoy your car.

I'd say the price is good. I'd want to know more about the carfax issue though.

Now I see why you backed out of the one I bought, you sure got a ton more for about the same price as me. I'd say you got a killer deal, rather than that price is high for this car.

$64.5k for a 2013 Carrera S Platinum Silver Sport Design car pdk with 33k miles. There is a small blemish on the carfax as damage reported, but no accident and I couldn’t tell any obvious paint work or damage. Interior is mint, front bumper has some light scratches under the front lip but everything else looks great.

They also persuaded me to get a Mechanical protection plan warranty for 4 yr /48k by old unity causality co even though I wanted a fidelity, might cancel this one and get that. Unless people have heard of this one.

Looks very nice - congrats! But what is that message about oil level?

Thanks, not sure I’ll have them start it up with me by it tomorrow. That was from the ad pictures I didn’t take that, I didn’t see any warnings while driving tho.

Thanks everybody for your insights, I am stoked to be in your company soon! We will see what the ppi holds early this week. I like the car I hope it comes back squeaky clean. Maybe they can shed light on carfax issue and damage reported if they see anything obvious. I never ever intended to buy a car with a carfax blemish but at least for me the other 2013 comp was 63k miles for $62k cpo, so I took the risk and went with half the miles here.

Just to give you something to compare to, I sold my ‘14 base C2 three weeks ago for 65k. It was highly optioned with msrp of 110k and had 6.5k miles on it. Cpo until 9-20 and looked like new. Enjoy your new car.

You did very well, imo! Many will pay a premium for low miles; I know I did and would again. It’s simply peace of mind.

Only 6,500 miles on a 5 year old car? Shame that you didn’t manage to enjoy it more.

How do you know he does not have 10 more vehicles to spread the miles over?!

I owned it for 1.5 years and put 4k on it. Not my only car. Worry about you......
