You should be shooting for sub-$70k if you are looking for a great deal on a higher-mileage C2S, and a bit higher for a 4S. Keep an eye on Boston-area dealers; a few of us found awesome deals going into the end of 2016.

FYI: The 997.2 GTS market is very strong as well.

Last of 6 speed manuals = GOLDEN

From the Porsche pre-owned locator. There is 1 result for 4S cab with PDK and CPO under 80k and 14 results for S cab. Porsche pre-owned locator is on the porsche.com/usa page. Happy hunting.

Damn, that racing yellow C4S seems like a great deal. Love it and hope someone jumps on that one.

The numbers drop quickly if you spec SC and/or PSE for under 80k.

Excellent! Thanks! Any dealers you might suggest. Bought my 997 Targa 4s from Herb Chambers for a decent price before I traded it for my 981 Boxster S up in Nashua. Thought the prices in Nashua were a little high, but since I was offered what I paid on the 997 in trade, I couldn't pass it up. The new targa was released, so I guess nostalgia helped the value there. Thanks again for all the advice

The color adds 10HP I swear.
Was checking it out over the weekend...would it be lame if we bought a 2nd RY 911? I just might get confused and take out the GTS more often.

I kid you not, that's exactly the plan if/when my current beater gives up the spirit.
