I've found that non-Porsche dealers have the best deals but you should insist on PPI and a clean history. I got mine from a Cadillac dealer. Best of luck with your search.
That's an awesome deal on a cab.

I think STG posted that so we all could say "I could have had that instead!"

That's a great looking car, and I think a very fair price compared to some we've been seeing out there.

I really don't think it will last long. I hope someone here jumps on it!

John will take good care of any HFS guys.

Any input on why this one has been camped out for so long? Lack of market for MTs, I'm guessing?? Seems like I read enough posts from MT purists that someone would have scooped this one up by now.

Yup, it looks like the current dealer has had that car two years (since Jan 2015!) and the accident was while the dealer had it, so they are likely way upside down on it... Looks like before the accident (Jan 2016), they were asking $82K for it! Too many other 991 choices rather than settle on a low option car with a significant accident history unless there is a huge financial incentive.

Now for low $50's, I might consider it... :-)

I would too. I found many very good deals on cars with accidents in the past when I was looking. They're a real find if you don't mind diminished value and can be certain the repairs were done properly. My 02 C4S was hit in the rear bumper. It was just a round dent in the corner. I had the bumper skin replaced and painted to match at a reputable shop. The guy who bought it got a great deal because of that and the car was still like new. I would certainly consider one if the main goal was to flog it on the track.

That white GTS is an awesome build and a great price. Please someone jump on it! I love painted side skirts... I would have been all over it if I didn't already buy a GTS on Tuesday . I'm super excited to get the car. Waiting on shipping from east coast to west coast .

Although my car wasn't posted on HFS, the education I gained from this thread helped me make a decision that I felt good about. Thanks STG.

I'll post more pics when the car arrives.
